7 Days Cairo, Luxor and Aswan holiday from Kuwait

Following breakfast at the hotel, you will be greeted by our licensed guide and personal driver to begin your Egypt Travel Packages. Your tour will begin in Cairo and take you to Alexandria, which was founded in 332 B.C. by the famous leader Alexander the Great. He was a great ruler of the ancient Greek kingdom.

Begin your exploration with a visit to the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, an ancient underground necropolis blending Egyptian, Greek, and Roman influences. Then, marvel at the towering Pompey's Pillar, a symbol of the city’s storied past.

Enjoy stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea from the historic Citadel of Qaitbay, a fortress guarding the city’s coastline. The nearby Bibliotheca Alexandrina, a modern wonder, offers a glimpse into the cultural and intellectual heritage of the ancient library.

Finally, immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of city squares and local markets, where Alexandria’s unique blend of cultures comes to life through its people, food, and colorful stalls. It’s a perfect day to experience the charm and history of Egypt’s coastal gem.

After enjoying a delicious breakfast at your Cairo hotel, your accredited Egyptologist guide will accompany you to the Grand Egyptian Museum, where you can explore the intricate details of the world's most extensive collection of Egyptian antiquities. You will also have the opportunity to view the golden masks and coffins of King Tutankhamen.

After spending approximately two hours at the Grand Egyptian Museum, we will embark on our intriguing Islamic Cairo trips by first visiting the Citadel of Saladin. This citadel includes the Mohamed Ali Alabaster Mosque, which was constructed in the 12th century by Mamluk rulers to safeguard Egypt from the Crusaders. Later, King Mohammed Ali of the Ottoman Empire built his renowned mosque inside the fortress in 1830.

As part of our Egypt Classic Tours, we will pause and take you to enjoy a nice lunch before embarking on a journey through Coptic Cairo. After lunch, we will continue our excursion by exploring the remains of an ancient Roman fortress called Babylon, which dates back to the 1st century. Above it, there is an extraordinary church suspended on towers that are locally referred to as the Hanging Church. We will then stroll through narrow alleys that will make you feel like you're walking through the old streets of Jerusalem until we reach the church of St Sergius. This church was blessed by the presence of the Holy Family when they fled to Egypt and stayed in Old Cairo for almost three months. Our Coptic Cairo tour will conclude with a visit to the old Jewish area of Cairo to see the Ben Ezra Synagogue, which was once a Christian church before being sold to a Jewish man.

We will visit Islamic Cairo and take a stroll down El Moez Ledin Ellah Street, the oldest street in Fatimid Cairo, which is renowned for its collection of Islamic art and architecture. Along the way, we will stop at the old Market and see the Al Azhar mosque before taking a break at El Fishawy, the oldest cafe in Khan El Khalili, where you can enjoy a Turkish coffee or a special mango juice.

We will take the car back to the hotel and stay the night in Cairo.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch

Start your day with breakfast at the hotel before checking out and preparing for your domestic flight to Luxor. We will pick you up from the lobby and take you to Cairo airport to continue your Egypt tour. Upon arriving in Luxor, our team will meet you and transfer you to your hotel for rest, if possible. If not, we’ll immediately begin exploring Luxor's West Bank, starting with the famous Valley of the Kings, where you'll explore three incredible tombs.

Next, we will visit the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, also known as the Temple of Deir El Bahari, a stunning structure set against the cliffs. We will then stop at the Colossi of Memnon, the only remaining parts of the mortuary temple of King Amenophis III, which faces the Nile. Afterward, enjoy a gourmet lunch at a local restaurant before continuing your tour on the East Bank of Luxor.

On the East Bank, we’ll explore the Karnak Temple Complex, walking along the Avenue of the Sphinxes and admiring the Hypostyle Hall’s 134 massive columns. You’ll also see the largest standing Obelisk in Egypt, built by Queen Hatshepsut. We’ll visit the Temple of Amun, the Granite Scarab of Amenophis III, and the sacred lake. Our day ends at the magnificent Luxor Temple, and in the evening, you may enjoy the Sound and Light Show at Karnak Temple.

At 7:00 in the morning, you will receive the checkout procedures from your hotel. Following that, you will be driven by land from Luxor to Aswan, which will take approximately 3 hours. Once you arrive, you will start sightseeing in Aswan, beginning with a visit to the Aswan High Dam, located 6.5 km south of the Aswan Dam. 

This dam was a significant element in the economic development of the country, as envisioned by the late President Gamal Abdel Nasser. Your tour guide will then lead you to a boat, which will take you to the Philae Temple. The Philae Temple houses monuments from four significant periods in Egypt's history, including the Pharaonic era, the Ptolemaic era, the Roman epoch, and the Christian period. The Temple of Isis, Horus, Hathor, and the Kiosk are among the most notable monuments.

Once the Aswan day tours are completed, you will be treated to a delicious lunch in Aswan, followed by transportation to your hotel in Aswan to check-in.

You will return to Aswan by approximately 1:00 pm, at which point you will be transferred to Aswan airport to catch your flight back to Cairo.
