Day 2 combines Giza, 1 museum and the flight to Luxor. The tour is private, so tell us if you would rather drop one of the museums.

On Day 4 you stop at the temples of Edfu and Kom Ombo on the drive south. To make that journey by boat instead, see our Nile cruises from Luxor to Aswan.
Abu Simbel Day Trip from Aswan (Day 5)
The road from Aswan to Abu Simbel takes 3 to 3.5 hours each way. That is why Day 5 starts early: you take a breakfast box and eat on the way in your private air-conditioned car. Allow 2 to 3 hours for the Great Temple of Ramesses II and Nefertari's Temple before the drive back. For the story of both temples, see our Abu Simbel temples visitor guide.
Aswan and Philae Temple (Day 6)
On Day 6 you visit the Aswan High Dam and the Unfinished Obelisk, then take a short boat ride to Philae Temple on Agilkia Island, the Ptolemaic sanctuary of the goddess Isis. UNESCO lists Philae and Abu Simbel together as one World Heritage property, the Nubian Monuments from Abu Simbel to Philae. After lunch you fly back to Cairo.

What the Price Includes and What Costs Extra
The price covers:
Hotels and meals: 2 nights each in Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, with breakfast on Days 2 to 7, lunch on Days 2 to 6 and dinner on Day 1.
Entrance fees: the museums and archaeological sites in the itinerary.
Guide and transport: a private Egyptologist guide, 2 domestic flights, private cars for every transfer and airport pickup.
You pay separately for:
Tutankhamun's tomb: it needs its own ticket, which your guide helps you buy at the Valley of the Kings.
Flights and visa: your international flights and the Egypt visa.
Other meals and drinks: dinner on Days 2 to 6, and drinks with your meals.
Tips: for your guide, driver and other service staff.
Who Is the 7 Days Egypt Tour For?
Choose this tour if you want the Giza pyramids, the Valley of the Kings and Abu Simbel in one week and do not mind an early start on Day 5. Expect plenty of walking at the temples and tombs.
To save a day, the 6 days Cairo, Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel package covers the same 4 places.
With more time, a tailor-made Egypt trip with the places you choose can add days, cities or a slower pace.
