Authentic, unique, not to miss experience. Everything from the food, activities and tour guides was amazing.
This was a once in a life time experience. We never dreamed it would end up as a private tour. Mohammad 1 & 2 as well as Harod was fantastic.

Loved the trip, unforgettable
Unforgettable trip, one of the best memories we have of this holiday in Egypt. Both our guide Adam Hassan and our driver Ahmed Khamis took great care of us, thought of where to stop, shared snacks, provided us with bottled water, helped us find the best souvenirs and spots to take photos. Water was included in the price and Ahmed always brought it in the right time so we never had a shortage. The van was spacious, clean and air-conditioned, which is a must on the journey to Siwa. Adam was always ready to provide maximum information about the sites we visited and to answer all extra questions. They both fully devoted their time to us to let us make the most of this trip, adjusting the timing and itinerary, staying up late. We felt welcome and cared for at every step. It felt like we were traveling with friends. We gladly recommend Marsa Alam Tours, Adam and Ahmed. Siwa itself is in sharp contrast to Cairo, peaceful and full of flowers and animals as well as hot and cold springs. The local people are extremely kind and welcoming, making you feel at home. It is a unique place, and it is worth visiting. The dune safari was fun.

One of our bests experiences !
This trip was amazing. Starting from the crew, Wael our main guide and Ahmed the driver were so special to us, they arranged everything for us tu be perfect. We stayed on a ecolodge, so beautiful and comfy, and we did a safari on the dessert with Mohamed, he was so special to us too, the best was watching the sunset with this guys on the top of a dune on Sahara desert, taking tea made by Mohamed. The second night we spent the night on a desert camp. And it was amazing! I am vegetarian, and Wael and the crew always had it in their minds. We had any problems with food. Everything delicious! Very recommended experience! Thanks very much

Highly recommended
We booked a private tour from Cairo to Siwa oasis. We asked for the company to change the timing around for us and they were very accommodating. Our driver was Ahmed and our guide was Wael, both were amazing! It was a long journey from Cairo but they definitely made the trip worth it. It was nice to get out of the hustle and bustle of Cairo and see something different. Would highly recommend!

Great Experience
My friend and I took the three-day tour to Siwa Oasis and added in an extra day for Marsa Matruh and Alexandria. The overall experience was really a 4.5, but I rounded up to solid 5 since the minor issues were mostly outside of the operators' control. Because I want future travellers to be prepared, I've written a pretty long review and the larger part of it is focused on what wasn't perfect, but I want to emphasise that it was a great trip and that I would completely recommend it! :) ------ What was awesome: The itinerary was well planned and executed. The drive to Siwa was very long (just be prepared for this) and we were concerned about how they were going to fit so many things into a short time in Siwa itself, but somehow everything went smoothly and we never felt rushed. Siwa was a unique and fascinating place to spend a little more than a day, and the Siwa sites and activities were really fun and interesting. The timing was perfect for one sunset over Fatnas lake and a stunning one in the desert just after sandboarding. We had several different guides (Mustafa, Wael, and Heba) and drivers (two different Mohammeds) throughout the tour. All were friendly and professional, and we felt 100% safe with all of them as two young women. They were knowledgeable about the sites, and approachable with all sorts of questions, but we also appreciated that they didn't overwhelm us with constant floods of dates, names, and other information and respected that we sometimes wanted downtime to take in the scenery and visit with each other. The drivers did a great job and made us feel comfortable even in unusual situations like going down steep dunes in the the desert safari and handling heavy traffic and unorganized construction detours. The accommodations were great, especially the gorgeous, unique hotel in Siwa and the desert camp (it was a cold evening for April, and they thoughtfully included an extra sleeping bag for each of us at the last minute which probably saved the night). The breakfasts/dinners were tasty and didn't make us sick. My friend arrived late due to airline shenanigans, and when I reached out to the company at the last minute, they were able to move some things around to accommodate us, which was amazing and above-and-beyond. The price was a little higher than some operators, but this seemed fair considering how many people were involved in the trip, away from their families for days travelling with us. And we really appreciated that we were never once pestered for tips, and weren't even sure if they were expected -- even though we still tried to give modest ones to everyone who worked with us. :) --------- What could be improved / What you should be prepared for: It was really cool in some ways to visit Egypt during Ramadan, but it did create some problems that ideally we might have been informed about when we first booked the tour. Lunch was a problem every day, though the guides did their best to figure something out. One day we just snacked, one day we had a lovely picnic in the desert (I'll never forget the Siwan-style eggplant dish Mohammed's wife prepared for us!), one day we had the least delicious meal of our trip (still edible and safe) at a hotel. Similarly, because of Ramadan / low season in Siwa, the beautiful pool at the hotel was closed/drained, the main bathrooms at Cleopatra's bath were closed (so we had to use a pretty nasty one), etc. Just be ready for some minor issues if you travel at this time! There was some confusion about paying for the tour -- we were assured multiple times that we could pay with dollars/euros and that they wanted cash, so we travelled with more cash than we usually do only to find out that A.) Egypt is incredibly strict about the condition of foreign bills -- about a third of the money I had gotten straight from an ATM in the US was rejected for being too damaged. B.) There has recently been some change where Egyptians have problems changing large amounts of foreign cash, so we had to go to the bank to change it into Egyptian currency ourselves. The guides were very apologetic about this, and maybe it was a very recent change so we couldn't have been told ahead of time, but we felt bad delaying everything on the busiest day of the itinerary when we could have more easily paid by card or withdrawn Egyptian currency directly from the ATM. There were also some minor communication issues about timing and the itinerary that ended up making us 'hurry up and wait' or not be prepared properly, for example thinking that we were stopping just for the bathroom, but then being told at the last minute that we should already have everything ready-to-go and on us for the next activity. This is a slightly adventurous trip, and not a luxury tour where everything you could possibly need is provided for you. For the most part we liked this, since we are used to travelling independently and don't need to be constantly pampered/warned to be careful/warned to stay hydrated, etc. But we were a bit disappointed how often we had to ask and wait for water bottles and that the guides didn't even have a basic first aid kit when I could have used a band-aid in the desert. It did make me wonder how they would have handled a real injury or issue. So basically I would recommend packing, preparing, and behaving almost as if you were travelling independently.
Response from the operator: Dear guest, Thank you a bunch for your great review and for spending your valuable time describing your adventure with us. You are always most welcome with our Agency any time. Also for your recommendation, our Agency Marsa Alam tours and the Whole team wish you all the best of luck and we are waiting for your upcoming trip to Egypt (the land of Pharaohs ) with some special offers for you.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo cost?
+
Prices start at $379 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cairo is not rushed.
Is 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 72-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cairo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 Days Tour Package To Siwa Oasis From Cairo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cairo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cairo?
+
On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cairo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cairo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
