    • Cairo: If you wanna see the best of Egypt with an epic crew of 18–35s, without blowing your budget, you’re in the right place. We’ll sort out the essentials: simple accommodation and local transport, and an epic crew of 18-35s. That means you get more freedom to choose what you spend on (and what you skip). Not quite what you’re looking for? We got you. Check out Egypt and the Nile for a classic, slightly upgraded version, or Best of Egypt for that tight-knit, small group vibe. 
    • Cairo: Simple stays that do the job — clean, comfy, and a solid base for sleeping, showering, and heading back out. You’ll usually be in twin-share or multi-share rooms, which keeps things budget-friendly and the vibes social.
  • Included Experience

    • Cairo: Visit Egypt’s most iconic ancient sites in one stop: the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, and the Valley Temple. Your Trip Manager will guide you around the plateau, sharing the stories behind how these monuments were built and what they meant to the people who created them. Think: pharaoh power to afterlife beliefs and the engineering that still impresses today. 
    • Cairo: Dive into Cairo’s most iconic bazaar, right in the heart of Historic Cairo (a UNESCO World Heritage site). Expect a maze of alleyways lined with lanterns, spices, jewellery, textiles, and antiques, plus local artisans doing their thing as you wander past. It’s equal parts shopping, people-watching, and soaking up the atmosphere, with plenty of chances to haggle for souvenirs and pick up something that actually feels like Cairo.
    • Aswan: Spend the day (and night) aboard a traditional felucca, floating down the Nile in full slow-travel mode. Lunch and dinner are included, there are swim stops, and you’ll sleep under the stars on the deck with your crew. Heads up: it’s rustic — the toilet is on a separate support boat travelling alongside. If it’s cold, we’ll switch it up with a shorter sail, then head by coach to Luxor for a hotel overnight instead.
    • Kom Ombo: Explore this seriously cool double temple with a perfectly symmetrical layout. One side is dedicated to Sobek (the crocodile god), the other to Horus (the falcon god) — two temples in one, and twice the ancient intrigue.
    • Luxor: Grab your camera and explore one of the world’s most famous archaeological sites. See the tomb of Tutankhamun from the outside (with the option to add on exploring it from the inside!) and many other Egyptian pharaohs. 
    • Hurghada: Check out these towering Pharaoh statues. They’ve stood guard since 1350 BC, even surviving natural disasters. And apparently one even ‘sings’ in the wind. 
    • Luxor: Get ready to see Luxor on two wheels. We'll cruise past epic monuments and historic spots with stories that bring the place to life. The best bit? You’ll meet local youth communities along the way, so you can swap hellos, hear real stories, and ride away with more than just photos
    • Luxor: Finish strong with a wander through Luxor’s lively souks. Browse local goods, pick up last-minute snacks or gifts, and soak up the atmosphere before you roll on to what’s next.
