Is the flight included, and do I need my passport?

Yes, the return flight is in the price. It is a domestic flight inside Egypt, so there is no visa, no extra paperwork and no border to cross — bring the passport you entered Egypt on, keep the bag small, and we handle the check-in side of it.

Where do we sleep, and are meals included?

2 days, 1 night in a hotel. Meals are part of the price — the What's included list names exactly which ones. Rooms are double or twin as standard, and everything is booked for you before you arrive.

Is there a dress code?

Shoulders and knees covered for the mosque and the churches — that is the whole rule, and it applies to men as well as women. Shoes come off at the mosque door, so socks are worth having. Everywhere else, dress for heat and for walking on uneven stone.

Know before you go

This is a shared departure: the programme runs in a fixed order and the group moves together. You cannot reorder, add or skip a stop — that is what keeps the price at this level. Our private Cairo tours change freely.
Three main sights in a day, no more. A fourth turns the day into a march between car parks. Day one is the museum, the Giza plateau and Khan el-Khalili; day two is Saqqara with the Serapeum, Dahshur, and the Citadel.
Bring the passport or ID you booked with. Domestic security asks for the original, and the hotel needs it at check-in.
Prices are based on two sharing a twin room. A guest travelling alone pays a €35 single-room supplement.
Flying saves roughly eight hours of vehicle time across the two days, which is what buys the Citadel on day two — the road version ends at Old Cairo to make the drive home.
