The trip of a lifetime with Travel joy! Can’t say this enough: AMAZING EXPERIENCE! My wife and I were in Cairo for 3 days with a few friends on the way to a wedding in Hurghada and we booked all our Cairo experiences with Travel Joy. They arranged for hotel/airport transfer, all tours and were incredible helpful. Absolutely made our trip incredible. Special shout out to Emily who was very patient and helpful helping me design our trip, Michael the best tour guide there can be (really funny too), and Kero who was a life saver. Could not ask for a more dedicated and committed group of professionals. We felt very safe and supported.

Excellent experience with Travel Joy Egypt Tour OMG! It couldn't be better! Our trip was only 3 days in Cairo and Luxor. Omar's team really knows what he is doing, they coordinated everything perfectly, guide in Spanish, transfers, Nile cruise, we really enjoyed the food, they took us to really good places. We didn't have to worry about anything just getting there. We really enjoyed our stay in Egypt, the guides are really good, they explain everything wonderfully in Spanish and took us to the places we were interested in! They took spectacular photos of us and always on the lookout for everything from picking us up at the airport to returning us there! If you want to live an experience without worries in this beautiful country, I really recommend them very much! Thank you for everything, I'm sure we'll be back with you!

Memorable multi-city tour of Egypt Our group of 13 had a memorable multi-city tour of Egypt thanks to Travel Joy and guide Mostafa. Over 6 months of planning ensured smooth sailing from start to finish. Comfortable transit aboard a spacious Toyota Coaster added enjoyment between destinations.We were delighted by most aspects of the 3-night deluxe Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, taking in iconic sights along the river. A road trip to Abu Simbel and Alexandria broadened cultural horizons outside Cairo as well.Our dedicated guide Mostafa and his cheerful team, including Omar and Kiro, anticipated every need with excellent hospitality. Relying on their local expertise enhanced appreciation for Egypt's rich history.While optional excursions hold value exploring off-itinerary, do thorough research beforehand. Knowing typical pricing prevents potential mismatches in expectations. When time permits, leisurely browsing artisan workshops and perfumeries can also prove rewarding after confirmed interest and minor negotiation.Overall, Travel Joy Egypt delivered wonderful memories through meticulous coordination. I'm grateful for their passion in sharing this magnificent land and cultures with visitors from around the world.

More About

Day Tour to Giza Pyramids & Sakkara from Port Said

Transportation from Port Said Port
After our representative at Port Said Port greets you by name, you will board our luxurious air-conditioned coach. Stretch out and relax on plush leather seats for the three hour drive to Cairo. Police escorts ensure hassle-free progress along the highway. All that lies ahead is an exciting day of cultural encounters! Stay hydrated with chilled bottled water while nibbling snacks, and get excited for the sites you’ll experience along the way. Our safety and comfort is our top priority for smooth sightseeing.

Camel Rides at the Pyramids of Giza
Upon arrival in Giza, the first glimpse of those colossal Pyramids rising from the desert sands is sure to leave you awe-struck. What better way to take in the dramatic setting than with an exhilarating camel ride? Feel the sun-baked sands shift underfoot as these ships of the desert amble past graffiti-covered stones of legends. Your private escort will help arrange two rides for adventurous passengers. Snap away memorable photos while our certified guides answer questions and share rich histories.

Valley Temple and the Embodied Sphinx
After exploring Giza Plateau by foot, the tour continues down into its plains. At the concealed Valley Temple near the Sphinx, admire its towering columns and hieroglyphic-stamped ceilings. Then gasp in wonder at the human-headed Sphinx – revered guardian since antiquity. Legend recounts its body was coaxed from solid bedrock by hand. Now it watches ceaselessly as Egypt’s national emblem. Your Egyptologist ensures these thought-provoking exhibits inspire a new appreciation.

Lunch in Cairo and History-Steeped Sakkara
Before heading south, satisfy your hunger at an eatery at the city’s edge specializing in home-style cuisine. Fuelled and recharged, follow millennia of pharaohs’ sacred progression by driving to Sakkara necropolis. As the capital of Egypt during the early dynasties, here in Zoser’s Step Pyramid chambers you find humanity’s oldest surviving monumental stone structure and first pyramid. Adjacent Mastaba tombs disclose intriguingly elaborate burial customs in place long before the Giza Plateau came into play. These profound legacies reveal origins of dynastic Egypt.

Return to Port Said with Treasured Souvenirs
Time permitting on the fast-paced voyage, we make a scheduled break at a craft outlet so you can part with memorable gifts and handicrafts directly from their makers. All too soon our enriching adventure draws to a close as your guide closes out day’s highlights. Arriving portside, thank you for choosing Travel Joy Egypt – I wish you smooth sailing and hope to welcome you once more in future! Until next time.
