Ancient wonders, charming bazaars and sand-covered pyramids. A luxury holiday to Egypt is forever enchanting.
A source of obsession with travellers for centuries, there is still much to discover in this mysterious country. Egypt welcomes you in with grand Pharaonic temples, great pyramids and its meandering River Nile. For 15 years our Travel Experts have been travelling to Egypt in style with families, friends and partners to curate bespoke itineraries and handpick the most passionate, knowledgeable private guides to bring it to life. With Asma you’ll discover Cairo’s ‘Garbage City’, with Samar you’ll uncover Tutankhamun’s burial chamber and with Abdul you’ll navigate the waterways of the world’s longest river on a private felucca. All the while staying at Egypt’s most stylish accommodation in Cairo centre, on the banks of the Nile and the water itself.
As ever, if you can’t see the way you want to explore Egypt here, we can still plan it for you.
Split in half by the restorative waters of the ancient Nile, Egypt is defined by the ancient monuments of Luxor and Abu Simbel temple, its luscious green delta, and the sensory cities of Alexandria and Cairo which thrum and heave between the river and the sea. A true feast for the senses, you’ll want to pack your best linens as you experience everything from mysterious Sufi dancing, languorous meals on the banks of the Nile, and reverential forays into the much mythologized Great Pyramids. But it’s not all ancient Egypt – now you’ll find an exhilaratingly modern nation, poised between ripe North Africa and the Middle East.
Egypt is synonymous with a kind of old-world glamour and unapologetic indulgence that is rarely found in our age of uber-modern architecture. Enjoy day-beds and roof terraces shaded by plush canopies, while you sip ice-cold tumblers of gin and taste charcoal-flecked shawarma; indulge yourself in luxury spas; and satisfy yourself with some of the most decorous suites in this part of the world, whether you choose to stay in bustling Cairo (we love the Four Seasons Hotel Cairo) or the palm-shaded courtyards of Luxor’s colonial-style hotels.
With its scintillating street-life, opulent hotels and jaw-dropping history, Egypt is a natural holiday destination. Explore the preserved temples of mighty Luxor from the palatial hotel of Al Moudira, sample traditional Egyptian feasts, and drift along the Nile on a private felucca. By night, your way will be lit by glowing fires and the bright stars above – unless you seek the energy and bustle of Cairo’s Khan al Khalili market, or a rare private tour of the Grand Egyptian Museum after dark.
While the iconic monuments command attention, our approach to an Egypt luxury tour reveals the country’s deeper narratives. Beyond the engineering marvels of the Giza pyramids and Abu Simbel, knowledgable guides unlock lesser-known treasures: intimate encounters in a Nubian village, the preserved artifacts of Kom Ombo temple and its Crocodile Museum, and antiquities that tell stories of ancient river life. Your private journey can include all of this and more.
Our signature Field Trip experience invites families beyond Cairo’s boundaries to join active archaeological missions at Saqqara’s ancient necropolis. Working alongside specialists at this UNESCO World Heritage site, children and parents participate in real excavations, learning proper techniques for unearthing and documenting artifacts from Ancient Egypt that have remained hidden for millennia – an unparalleled addition to any Egyptian journey.
Egypt’s ancient narratives take on new dimensions through privileged access. Private openings of Tutankhamun’s tomb allow for unhurried exploration, while expert Egyptologists unlock hidden chambers typically closed to visitors. Sail the Nile aboard intimate dahabiyas, traditional vessels that dock at lesser-known temples unreachable by larger ships. In Cairo, renowned archaeologists lead behind-the-scenes tours of the Grand Egyptian Museum’s conservation laboratories, while desert adventures elevate through exclusive camps amid the White Desert’s limestone formations, where private chefs prepare traditional feasts under star-filled skies.
Cairo
Experience a maze of mosques and madrasas when you explore Cairo.
The largest city in the Arab world, Cairo and its western pyramids are the hub of ancient Egyptian history. Alongside our expert guides, we’ll arrange an after-hours tour of the Grand Egyptian Museum and introduce you to the skilled craftsmen of Khalili Market. After something really special? We’ll arrange for a world-renowned archaeologist to get you exclusive access to enter into the base of the Great Sphinx in Giza; an experience few have experienced.
Valley of the Kings
Enter the resting place of King Tutankhamun.
It’s no secret that ancient Egyptians took pride in building elaborate chambers for their pharaohs. The most famed and colourful collection however, lies on the west bank of the Nile in the Valley of the Kings. Dating back over 3,000 years ago, the 63 burial chambers that reside here play homage to great Egyptian Kings, including that of the legendary Tutankhamun. Crowned at just nine years old and the last of his family to rule during that distant dynasty, your Egyptologist guide will be on hand to answer all your burning questions at King Tut’s tomb.
The Nile
Sail in style on a Nile cruise.
At dawn and dusk, the sky along the Nile trembles with pearl and brilliant, deep reds. Bicycle through the lush agricultural fields of the riverbank, drink-in the under-visited beauty of Medinat Habu temple and sail past small traditional villages on a private sandal cruise along the Nile. Want to stop off at Edfu Temple or Kom Ombo along the way? Just give us the nod. This is your luxury Nile cruise after all.
