What Private Egypt Tour Packages Include

A typical private package covers the items below, and each package spells out its own list:

  • Guide: a licensed, government-certified Egyptologist with Ministry of Tourism credentials who works for your group alone; see how our Egyptologist guides work on private days.
  • Transport: a private air-conditioned car and driver.
  • Entrance fees: included for every site on your itinerary.
  • Hotels: in the tier you choose, with daily breakfast.
  • Not included: international airfare, meals not listed in the itinerary, tips and optional extras such as balloon rides; we send a tipping guide before arrival.

Travel Joy Egypt has 13 years of travel expertise and a 5.0 out of 5 rating on TripAdvisor.

Private vs Group Tours in Egypt

The main difference is who sets the pace: a private tour runs on your timetable, while a small-group tour follows the group's. The table compares both tour types on pace and on who each suits.

Tour type Pace Best for
Private Set by you Couples, families, history buffs
Small group Set by the group Travellers happy to share a timetable

Choose a private package if you want to start early and reach the pyramids ahead of the crowds, and a small-group tour if a shared timetable suits you.

How the Price per Person Works

Private packages are priced per person, and the price falls as the group grows, because the guide and vehicle cost the same for a group of 2 or 6. Hotel tier moves the price too.

Every package shows its current starting price per person, and we price the full plan for your group size.

How We Customise Your Private Plan

Customising starts with a conversation with a travel designer, and we change the plan until you are happy with it:

  1. Send your dates, group size, interests and budget through the enquiry form for a tailor-made private trip.
  2. Read the day-by-day plan, which follows within roughly 24 hours.
  3. Refine it together: change a day, drop a site, move to a better Nile cruise or add the Red Sea to Cairo.
  4. Confirm only when the plan fits, because nothing is booked before that.

What to Check in Any Private Tour Offer

Compare offers on the same points, ours included:

  • Private days: which days include your own guide and car.
  • Hotels: the names and tier in each city.
  • Nile cruise: the cabin type and which shore excursions your guide joins.
  • Entrance fees: which sites are covered.
  • Flights: which internal flights are included and who books them.
  • Exclusions: what stays extra.

Expert Guidance

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about our private Egypt tours.

1
How much does a private Egypt tour cost per person?
For example, the 12 Days Exceptional Tour in Egypt starts from $2,380 per person, and every package shows its own starting price. Send your group size and hotel tier to your travel designer for a price that fits them.
2
Will I have the same guide for the whole private tour?
Mostly, yes. Sometimes a local specialist guide joins you at particular sites, for example on a Nile cruise or in another city, while the trip itself stays private to your group. Your travel designer confirms who guides each part of the route when you refine the plan.
3
How do I book a private Egypt tour?
You book through a conversation with a travel designer, not an instant online checkout. Send your dates and group size through the enquiry form, by email or on WhatsApp, and you receive a day-by-day plan to refine.
4
Are airport pickups and transfers included in a private tour?
Yes. Your airport meet-and-greet, hotel drop-offs and the transfers between sites are covered, in a private air-conditioned car with your own driver.
5
Who books the internal flights on a private Egypt tour?
We do. Most routes use short internal flights, for example Cairo to Luxor and Aswan to Abu Simbel, and our team books and coordinates them so each day connects with the next. Each package lists what its price covers, and your travel designer confirms the flights before you book.
6
What hotels do private Egypt tour packages use?
Hotels are matched to your budget and style, in the tier you choose. Tell your travel designer which tier you prefer and the plan is built around it.
7
Can a private tour combine land touring with a Nile cruise?
Yes. Land touring and a Nile cruise fit in one private trip. Your guide joins the shore excursions, and a local specialist sometimes joins at particular sites, so your group stays private on the river as well as on land.
8
Are private Egypt tours good for families with kids?
Yes. You set the pace, so with young children each day can start later and the morning visits can be shorter. Give your travel designer your children's ages and the visits are paced to suit them. Our family Egypt tours are a good place to start.
9
How much is the Egypt visa for a private tour?
The Egypt visa on arrival costs $30 and the e-Visa is also $30, while a multiple-entry e-Visa costs $65. Visa assistance is part of a typical private package, so we help you apply. Rules differ by nationality, so read our full guide to Egypt visa requirements before you travel.
10
When is the best time for a private Egypt tour?
The most popular months run from October to April. Tell us your month and we draft the days to fit.
