Egypt Trips & Tours

Take a trip back in time to the gift of the Nile, a country rich in wonder and intoxicating in its lure.

Discovering a new country is always exciting – and when that country happens to be one with an extraordinary history, filled with millennia-old tombs and temples, sand dusted pyramids, and perfectly-carved hieroglyphics and vivid artworks, there’s all the more reason to add it to your bucket-list, pronto. Located on the eastern side of North Africa, its lifeblood the mighty Nile River, Egypt is one of the oldest tourist destinations on the planet and its marvels are endless. But whilst the ancient architecture is guaranteed to bring out the student in most of us, Egypt certainly isn’t a one trick pony. Dig deeper past the Saharan sands and gigantic pyramids, and you’ll find fertile valleys, luscious oases, and islands shaded by date palms, ripe for exploration. The coast is renowned as one of the diving world’s best and a magical, kaleidoscopic realm awaits under the azure waves. On the surface, the sandy beaches cry out for a sun lounger and a towel – and if none of that suits, take to the water for a cruise down the Nile and enjoy the sights and sounds in pure luxury.

Why you'll love your Egypt Trips & Tours package

Why you'll love it

Egypt’s hotels are unapologetically indulgent. From sensory spas to gilded bedrooms, glamorous rooftop bars and some of the most desirable restaurants this side of the Sahara, they are the antithesis to modern day minimalism – and completely fabulous.

Off the beaten track

Off the beaten track

Most of us are so focused on Egypt’s timeless past that we forget its living creativity. In fact, its modern-day TV and film stars are recognised beyond the Arab-speaking world, modern politics are present, and the young are proud of their past and future. If you get the chance, delve into this side of the country too and you won’t be disappointed…

It’s been a tricky few decades for Egypt’s tourist industry but the country is slowly finding its feet. Every year, thousands of tourists visit safely and the effect of tourism on the economy is unparalleled.

When to go on a Egypt Trip

Egypt is notorious for its baking hot weather, particularly in the summer months (June - August), with many major cities reaching temperatures in the high 30s or above (Celcius) and little rainfall all year round. Most travellers avoid the peak heat and choose to travel between October and March. The weather remains temperate, making sightseeing trips to the Pyramids, temples and bazaars much more pleasant. However, everyone has the same idea and tourist numbers are high, meaning the hotel prices follow suit. Visiting in the shoulder seasons (May and September) can be favourable as the weather remains milder than the summer time and room prices haven't reached peak season levels. In September, the sea breezes are lovely if you're planning a coastal visit and you'll enjoy the Red Sea without the usual autumn / winter crowds. Between April and May, the Khamsin Wind blows through Egypt, making conditions less ideal for photography. If you hope to visit during Ramadan, which falls between the same months, be aware that opening times often change and the cities are increasingly crowded.
The sweet spot to visit Egypt is from October to April. Think warm, sunny days and cool evenings, perfect for exploring without melting in the heat. It’s peak season, so expect some crowds, but the comfortable weather makes it worth it. If you're looking for less crowded, try the shoulder months of March, April, September, or October. It’s still warm but not scorching! "
