We are interested in the 9-day Solo-ish Egypt tour. Instead of starting the tour on Sept. 25, would it be possible for us to do the tour starting on Sept 29?

The 9-day Solo-ish Egypt tour is a wonderful itinerary. However, this particular trip is specifically designed for solo travellers and operates on fixed departure dates. It wouldn't be possible to shift the Sept. 25 departure to Sept. 29, as group tours must begin and end on the scheduled dates to align with hotels, internal flights, guides, and included sightseeing. While couples can technically join, the "Solo-ish" concept is built around matching solo travellers for shared accommodations and fostering a solo-focused group dynamic, so it may not be the most ideal fit for couples. There may be other Egypt small-group tours with departures closer to Sept. 29 that would better align with your onward travel to Israel. Many 8–10 day Egypt itineraries include Cairo, Aswan, Luxor, and a Nile cruise, similar to Solo-ish Egypt, but are designed for couples and mixed traveller groups.

I'd like to better understand the ages & profile of typical folks on your tours.

Usually, for our solo-ish tours our travellers are in their 40's-60's. If you have a specific date in mind we can let you know the demographics of that tour.

I Am interested in tours in Egypt as a solo traveller I take it flights not included

Your international flights are not included and are something that you must book separately yourself.

Can you give me an example of possible hotels in Cairo, or an idea of what party of the city the hotel would be in? I'll be arriving the night before and need to book an extra night hotel, and would book same hotel or a hotel nearby in same area. Since I arrive night before (6 June 9:30pm), do I still get the included airport pickup? Or do I now need to pay for a separate airport transfer? On the last day in Luxor, how much is the cost of asking you to arrange airport transfer from Luxor hotel to Luxor airport in the morning of 15 June.

As an example of a hotel we use in Cairo: Cosmopolitan Cairo Hotel. And in Luxor: Emilio Hotel Luxor. Once the hotels are updated then you will certainly be able to book the additional night through us and we will pick you up at the airport and take you to the joining hotel. And for the departure transfer from Luxor - we currently don't have the pricing for this service but can also reach out to the operational staff on this service too!

Our trip to Egypt was genuinely one of the most amazing experiences of my life. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. The food was incredible, the culture was rich and fascinating, and every site we visited was absolutely breathtaking. It truly felt like stepping into history at every turn—there is simply nothing else like it. A special mention has to go to our CEO, Mo, who made the entire journey even more memorable. He took care of us throughout the trip with so much attention and kindness, always making sure we felt safe and well looked after. His presence really elevated the whole experience. This was honestly a trip of a lifetime and a true bucket-list moment. I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation—just make sure you take part in all the optional activities, because you’d miss out on so much if you don’t.Show more

I got really lucky with my CEO Khader and the group I was in Jordan. He loves his job and loves to share his culture and knowledge of Jordan and the world. The activities were included so it felt like a family traveling together and we would have family dinners every night. My favorite part was obviously Petra but also Wadi Rum with no internet access just you the group and desert. We also did moon rising! MUST DO! Egypt I got lucky to have Dalia has my CEO. She was so skilled with amazing facts and information about Egypt. Being at Giza Pyramids were the absolute best!!!! A lot more optional activities; if you don’t pay them it’s a free day and that got in the way of bonding with others but it was breathtaking place nonetheless!Show more
