THE ONE THAT BRINGS YOU FACE TO FACE WITH PHARAOHS AND WORLD WONDERS IN ENIGMATIC EGYPT

Step into the ancient world of Egypt and discover the Great Pyramids. Experience the captivating chaos of Cairo, spend 3-nights gently floating down the river Nile in a traditional Felucca and relax on the beach in Hurghada. A trip to Egypt with Contiki will ensure you have a tour to remember.

Did you know this trip runs all year round? Check out our departure dates from October to April for off-peak deals, and discover Egypt with fewer crowds and winter sun.

WHAT YOU GET

7 nights accommodation

3 nights in Hotel, 1 night in Overnight Train, 3 nights in Cruise ship

Here in Egypt, we match the accommodation to the country itself - diverse and incredible in equal measure. 3-nights will be spent in swanky hotels, 1-night on a couchette train riding twin-birth from Cairo to Aswan, & 3-nights will be spent cruising down the Nile, no less.

15 included Meals

7 Breakfast, 5 Dinner, 3 Lunch

Not familiar with Egyptian cuisine? You will be, and you'll be uber impressed might we add. We'll sort you out with 7 continental breakfasts to kick start each day of adventure, 3 lunches, & 5 dinners. The rest of the time you can stretch the waist of your pants overstuffed shortbread biscuits, tahini salads & eggplant moussaka.

Team

Expert Trip Manager, Driver and Local Guides

Throughout your trip you'll be safe in the hands of an expert local guide, who knows the streets of Egypt and the history of the Pharaohs better than you know the depths of your bucket list.

Transport

All transport included during the trip

Never a dull moment in Egypt! You'll be floating down the Nile on a traditional felucca sailboat one moment and taking a scenic couchette train the next, with a private, air-conditioned coach for all the bits in between.

Your group

Travel with other 18-35 year olds from around the world

Our trips are exclusively 18-35. This means you'll be travelling with people just like you, from all over the world- laughter and friendships always guaranteed.

Experiences

7 included, 6 optional that you can add

The jaw-dropping visit to the Sphinx & the monumental Pyramids of Giza set the tone of the inclusions on this incredible trip. The Egyptian Museum in Cairo and the Colossos of Memnon just keep adding some cream to the crop.

Egypt & The Nile

The history in Egypt is unlike anywhere else in the world, contiki created a trip full of adventure in 8 days. The Nile cruise was a highlight, as well as riding camels around the pyramids. Sharif was a great leader for our group!

Egypt & The Nile

the things that we saw were amazing, however, if you didn't do the optional activities then you didn't get to see much, there was to many people on the tour, put on other tours and don't split the groups. the accomodation was terrible! tour manager was very knowledgable however there was some inappropriate comments and actions towards female members of the tour. I would not recommend this tour to others, explore other options at this price

Guides made unwanted advances at solo female travelers on the tour

Include the cost of the add on excursions online, because that definitely upped the price... slightly deceiving

The best trip of my life

Do not hesitate if you are considering booking this trip!! Sherif was the best tour guide possible and made sure the entire group was having a great time every day. It was a great value for the money. However, there are more free-time add ons than what Contiki lists on their website. They were all worth the money.

Egypt & The Nile

Fantastic trip, would very highly recommend, as there is nothing else quite like it. Anyone with concerns over security/how safe it is (as we definitely had some nerves): you are very well looked after, including airport transfers, subtle but helpful security, and the tour manager explains all the tips and tricks to be as street smart as possible.

Bucket list tour

Great and safe experience but the pre sale service is terrible. No info pack was mailed, no collaboration with other people going on the same trip and the spare money guide was 1/6th of the amount needed which damped the mood over there

Egypt is a must see

Very good for price however another tour company did a similar tour for about half the price, plus more items should be included in the price instead of as an add-on

Trip was wonderful, Contiki itself was disappointing

Trip was absolutely wonderful and life-changing. It’s truly a lifetime experience, and you’ll learn so much. Don’t count on Contiki to provide any details in advance, but be prepared for anything.

The only disappointment is that it ends

Our guide masterfully guided us through e Egypt and shared his immense online y of the ancient world. He also enabled our group to develop a truly social bond and friendship that has continued even after the trip ended

The trip with Contiki will cost you but everything else in the country is rather cheap. Worth it!
