Frequently Asked Questions About 8-Day Egypt Tours

How Many Days Do I Really Need in Egypt?

We recommend spending at least 7 to 10 days in Egypt to enjoy the major highlights without feeling rushed. If you want to add some downtime by the Red Sea coast or include more immersive experiences, consider 12 to 14 days.

Even in just 8 days, our private itineraries are designed to help you see more with less hassle, thanks to seamless domestic flights, a private guide and personal driver plus vehicle, and a perfectly timed schedule.

• Day 2: Saqqara, Memphis & the Step Pyramid
