For sightseeing purposes in Egypt, a duration of 7 to 10 days will be most appropriate for your Egypt vacation packages. This gives enough time to see places like Cairo, the Pyramids, Luxor, Aswan, and the Nile, with some time for rest as well. If you want to go into more detail, you can opt to spend 14 days in Egypt.
It is quite possible to travel around Egypt in a period of four days as all the major cities will be covered under your trips to Egypt. A typical tour includes a visit to the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, and a quick trip to the Valley of Kings in Luxor. However short it may seem, it is still possible to get a feel for Egypt.
Of course, most of the travel packages designed for Egypt incorporate both ancient Egypt and modern sites in their Egypt tours. For example, one may visit places including the Pyramids of Giza and the Egyptian Museum while enjoying other modern sites in the capital city, like Cairo Tower and the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. Hence, one can enjoy the history as well as current activities.
The Red Sea should be incorporated into your Egypt tour packages thanks to its breathtaking white sand beaches, clear blue waters, and enchanting coral reefs. It is an ideal destination for snorkelers and divers, presenting a perfect blend of adventure and resort relaxation where one can enjoy having fun underwater.
Of course, several travel options offered by Happy Egypt feature safari excursions to get a general overview of the beautiful deserted parts of Egypt. These usually include fun-filled activities such as dune bashing and camping in places like the white desert and different oases, hence making the tour interesting and exhilarating.
Day excursions offered in Egypt may include the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Egypt day tours include Coptic Cairo and Khan El Khalili Bazaar which give the guests both history and shopping opportunities. If requested also other sites like Saqqara, Memphis, or a short Nile cruise might be arranged according to the tour.
During an Egypt tour, it is advised to wear comfortable clothing with light, unrestrictive clothes, especially during hot weather. The must-have items are a hat, sunglasses, sun protection lotion, appropriate footwear for the walk, and a refillable water bottle to avoid dehydration. If you plan on visiting shrines and temples where women must cover their heads, be sure to wear something on your head like a headscarf in the car.

The tour was very organised and they meet what was planned. Communication was also very clear, from the planning to during the tour. We would like to highlight that we enjoy the tour guide they assigned to us in Cairo, and the driver in Luxor.

Happy Egypt organised for our family (parents and children aged 16-21) a made-to-measure tour of Egypt.
We started after a day break on the red sea and were leaving from Cairo. Happy Egypt organised everything for us: schedule, transfers, hotels, visits, entries, … as well as a super friendly very knowledge and professional guide whose role in making our holiday amazing was undeniable.
The tour took into account our desire to have family time, but also see the sites when they would be quieter, to have explanations during the visits yet free time to also look at our own pace, and overall, all were met.
Boat was very small (as per our wishes) with a crew that could not have done more for us. Water always available in taxi, boat, etc. No hassle from anyone, just pure pleasure.
If we were to return, there is nothing we would change and we will recommend this company to any of our friends who plan such a holiday: big thank you from all of us.
Thank you Ahmed, thank you Mostafa.

We booked a tour in Dahabiya from Aswan to Luxor. It was gorgeous. The boat was only for us. The crew, Mahmud the manager among them, was very obliging, the food was fantastic and the guide Mahmoud was an excellent archaeologist, very didactic and patient. We had a wonderful time with him, enjoying every moment. He selected the better places to see everything, he answered any question we did and always in good mood. I recommend this experience. Probably we will repeat with another part of the family.

This was such a fun experience for my whole family. We were picked up early morning at 4:30 by the balloon company arranged by Ahmed our agency owner. What followed after that was a series of pickups and boat transfers on the Nile to go to the West Bank. The excitement was palpitating and we were in awe to see a collection of all hot air balloons getting ready to take off. It was an unforgettable experience to see the whole city and right at sunrise, the view was breathtaking. Am so glad we did this.

When I started to plan the trip from Aswan to Luxor ( 4 days 3 nights cruise) , I got prompt response and quotation from Happy Egypt through whataspp, which facilitated me to make decision and planning.
We chose the MS May Flower Cruise which accommodations are clean, new and tidy. The services on the cruise was excellent with helpful and friendly staff.
I am provided with a very knowledgeable guide , Hany, who could introduce all the sightseeing points well and took care of us well.
The trip to Abusimbel was unforgettable.
The sail on Nile River with felucca was nice and enjoyable.
We also booked additional trip to Nibican Village , where the beautiful colorful houses catched our eyes.
The company also provided us a free wifi router.

We were a group of eight, three couples and two friends. I started our planning the trip by getting quotes from several companies,but Ahmed was able to provide the best value for our group.
We started our trip in Cairo and we're met at the airport where our visas were already in his hands and he was able to walk us through one of the long lines out to our driver who took us to the Cairo Marriott (last year we stayed at Marriott Mena House with Pyramid views).
Saturday morning our driver Kareem and guide Yousseff took us to Giza Pyramid Complex, lunch and then the Eygpt Museum.
Sunday we toured Islamic and Coptic Cairo, then lunch and shopping at KhanKhalily bazaars.
Monday morning we flew to Luxor and we're met by our guide Mohammed Hasan. We toured Karnak Temple and then boarded our ship the MS Esmeralda to check in and have lunch. That evening we toured Luxor temple.
Over the next four nights we were impressed by the knowledge that our guide, Mohammed Hasan gave us during the tours of the West bank of Luxor, Valley of the
Kings, Hatshepsut Temple & Colossi of Memnon, Abu Simbel, Philadelphia Temple and Eygpt overall.
All of our group was impressed with the quality of service, tour schedule and most of all our guides.
Mohammed Hasan as an Egyptologist has 21 years of experience. One of the group members was in his third trip to Eygpt and said Mohammed was far superior than the other guides he had.
From start to end everything was coordinated very well by Ahmed the owner of the agency. We really enjoyed the mobile hotspots he provided because it helped to stay connected.
Can't wait for our next trip with them.

We had a private 3-day tour around Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel.
The organization was perfect and so was the guide, Mahmoud, who made sure we were enjoying it and provided many tips on places to visit and eat.
Highly recommended!
