  We are looking for a 5-day Nile cruise with travel days on either side. We are interested in a private tour for our group of 4 with an experienced Egyptologist, as we have a deep interest in Egyptian history. Does this tour include a knowledgable guide?

    For the private option, does that mean we have a private dahabiya? And the standard tour has a normal 10-15 person dahabiya.

  Asked on February 23rd, 2026

  Regarding the entrance fees, we would like to request the student rate as all three of us are under 23 with valid ISIC cards. According to the 2026 Ministry of Tourism regulations, students are entitled to a 50% discount. Based on our itinerary, the official student fee is approximately $55-$60 USD. Could you please check this and adjust the $150 USD quote to a fair student price?

  Price / Availability
  • 

    Holiday In EgyptOperator•Written February 2026

    Yes, students under 23 years old with a valid ISIC card are eligible for discounted monument tickets in Egypt. The USD 150 per person that we collect at the start of the tour covers all entrance tickets for the full itinerary, administrative handling of tickets, guide coordination at each site, and time management to avoid ticket queues. If all three travelers hold valid ISIC cards and original passports, we can adjust the entrance portion accordingly based on the official student rates at the time of travel. Student ID must be physical and valid. Passport must be presented at each major site. Some sites may not apply student discount. The estimated student total for this itinerary is generally higher than USD 55–60 due to the number of sites included across Cairo, Aswan and Luxor.

    To confirm the details: All three of us will have valid physical ISIC cards and original passports. Our ages at the time of travel will be 19, 21, and 22. We understand the coordination and handling involved, and we look forward to receiving the revised entrance fee breakdown based on the official student rates.
  • 

    Holiday In EgyptOperator•Written March 2026

    If you have a valid physical ISIC student ID along with your original passport, you will be eligible for the official student discount on entrance fees. In this case, you will pay only 50% of the regular entrance fees, which comes to USD 75 per person instead of USD 150. Please make sure to carry your physical student ID card with you, as digital copies are not accepted at the monuments.

    In Cairo, you will have a private Egyptologist guide for all guided visits. The guide does not travel with guests inside the sleeping train cabins. Our team handles train check-in and transfers at both stations. On the Nile cruise, a professional Egyptologist guide accompanies the group for all sightseeing tours. The same guide stays with the group throughout the cruise program.
