if the visits to the temples are form the cruise (just watching them from the ship) or if we would actually go on land and go inside the temples?

Is this tour from the 21-28.february guaranteed? Is there a chance to share room with somebody of the same gender who's also travelling alone?

What transport options are available for the Cairo–Aswan segments (seated train, sleeper cabin, or flight)?

Is it possible to mix transport types (for example, a sleeper train with a private cabin suitable for an adult and a 7-year-old on one leg, and a flight on the other), and would this require any itinerary adjustments?

I will be travelling solo but do not want to pay the single supplement as the price is almost double!! So I wanted to know if you will be able to pair me up with another female traveler for sharing the accommodation.

Very Happy to know that you interested in our tour, with pleasure we can make a discount for you. Rate will be 1130 instead of 1400$. With a supplement only 280$. Pls feel free if u have any questions or special request.

Is it safe to travel as a single woman to Egypt?

Yes sure it is very safe to travel and come to Egypt any time, & you will never feel alone here with the hospitality of Egypt People. Yes there is a supplement for single traveler.

When I started to prepare everything for my great travel to Egypt, I was becoming crazy because the many options in the market. At the end I choose this trip and really was over all my expectations!! Was sincerely wonderful, confortable trip. The guides and drivers are so kind and respectful. In my case I was preparing my self for a English tour, but almost cry when the guide was in Spanish (my mother tongue). The punctuality for go to the visits better than in London. I learn and enjoy to much!! If you are thinking to get this tour don’t hesitate because is amazing!!!Show more

  Traveler•Written January 2026
  How many nights are included on the Nile cruise in this option? If additional nights on the cruise are possible, or if overnight accommodation would be needed before or after the flight segment, it would be helpful to understand how that would work and the associated costs.
