7 Day Egypt Tour Package from Hurghada

Your Cairo sightseeing begins at The Pyramids of Giza, where you see the pyramid complex and have time to walk around the main viewpoints. The Sphinx is next, carved from the bedrock plateau and positioned beside the ancient temple area. Your guide explains how the site was planned and how the monuments relate to the royal burials.

After a break for lunch, continue to The Egyptian Museum to see galleries of pharaonic sculpture, jewellery and funerary objects. The day then moves into historic Cairo, including the Mosque of Mohamed Ali in the Citadel. Its elevated position gives you a broad view across the city when visibility allows.

Finish in The Old Cairo area before walking through The Old Bazar, where narrow lanes hold spice shops, cafés and craft stalls. The visit is guided, but you have time to browse at your own pace before returning to the hotel.

After breakfast, transfer to Cairo Airport for your flight to Aswan. On arrival, continue by road to the Abu Simbel temples. The two rock-cut temples face Lake Nasser and are known for their colossal seated figures, deep interior chambers and detailed wall scenes. Allow several hours for the visit and the return journey before continuing to the Nile.

Back in Aswan, board the vessel for the Amazing 4 Days Nile cruise. This is a four-day, three-night cruise sailing north from Aswan to Luxor, with accommodation, meals and scheduled sightseeing arranged on board. The exact order of boarding and the afternoon schedule can vary with navigation and vessel arrangements.

Settle into your cabin, meet the cruise team and watch the first river scenery pass from the deck. The evening is generally quiet, giving you a chance to recover after the flight and Abu Simbel excursion.

Begin with a visit to the High dam, a major engineering project that changed irrigation, electricity generation and the shape of Lake Nasser. Your guide sets the structure within Egypt’s modern history before you continue to the river island where the Phiala temple stands. The temple complex was moved to higher ground and carries reliefs dedicated to Isis and other ancient deities.

Later, take a boat across the Nile to a Nubian village. The ride gives you a close view of Aswan’s rocky islands and riverbanks. In the village, you can see brightly painted homes, learn about local customs and share tea or conversation when welcomed by residents. Visits are respectful and follow the local guide’s advice.

Return to the cruise ship for lunch and an afternoon at leisure. You may read on deck, rest in your cabin or watch the crew prepare the vessel for the next stage of the sailing.

The cruise continues north through the Nile Valley. Much of today is spent at an easy pace, with meals on board and time to sit on the open deck as villages, cultivated fields and desert edges pass by. Your guide explains the river’s role in farming and transport, while the cruise team keeps you informed about the day’s sailing schedule.

The vessel passes through the navigation locks on the route toward Luxor. This is a practical part of the journey rather than a formal sightseeing stop, and waiting times can vary according to river traffic. It is a good opportunity to take photographs, speak with fellow travellers and enjoy the changing light over the water.

Keep essentials such as sun protection, water and comfortable footwear ready for the following day’s shore excursions. You spend the night on board, with the ship continuing toward Luxor.

• Full day of Nile sailing
• Meals and cabin accommodation on the cruise
• Time on deck and passage through the river locks

After breakfast, disembark in Luxor for the West Bank visits. Begin at the Colossi of Memnon, two large stone figures that once guarded the entrance to a royal temple. Continue into the Valley of the Kings, where you enter selected open tombs and see painted burial chambers cut into the desert cliffs. Tomb access can change, so your guide will explain what is available that day.

Next, visit Hatshepsut temple, built in terraces beneath the limestone cliffs. Its colonnades and reliefs introduce the reign of one of ancient Egypt’s most important female rulers. After a break, cross to the East Bank for Karnak temple, then finish at Luxor temple, where columns, statues and later additions show how the site developed over many centuries.

Once the sightseeing is complete, our driver takes you by road to Hurghada. The transfer takes several hours, so carry water and keep your travel documents accessible. On arrival, check in at your Hurghada accommodation and rest after the long sightseeing day.

Your final day is kept for departure from Hurghada. After breakfast, our team arranges your transfer from the hotel to Hurghada Airport or another agreed drop-off point, allowing time for check-in and airport procedures. The departure schedule depends on your onward travel arrangements.

If your flight or onward transfer is later in the day, ask our team whether luggage storage or a later hotel check-out can be arranged. Any extra time can be spent resting at the hotel or taking a short walk nearby, subject to your accommodation and travel schedule. Keep passports, flight details and personal medication in your hand luggage.

This seven-day package ends with your Hurghada drop-off. Our team confirms the arrangements with you before departure so you know the collection point, luggage process and expected transfer time.
