FAMILY TRIP TO EGYPT
I recently returned from a two-week trip to Egypt, and I’m thrilled to share what an excellent experience I had with Egypt Tours Club. From start to finish, the service was professional, well-organized, and tailored to my needs. The transportation provided was always punctual and comfortable, making travel between cities and sites seamless. What stood out most, though, were the knowledgeable and friendly guides—they brought Egypt’s rich history to life with passion and insight, making every visit to temples, tombs, and museums unforgettable. Egypt Tours Club took care of all the details, which allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my trip. I highly recommend them to anyone planning a visit to Egypt and looking for a reliable and experienced tour company. Thanks to Mostafa, he is the best ☺️

Best Tour and Tour Guides Ever
My friend and I have just returned from a trip to Egypt. Neither of us had been there before so we decided to book a tour. We wanted to have a private, customizable tour and booking with Egypt Tours Club was the best decision we made. The entire tour went as smoothly as we could have wanted. From meeting us at the airport, checking us into hotels, making sure we were on the right train, etc. it was fantastic. What made this tour the best (and I would rate it 10 stars if I could) was the tour guides in Cairo - Jimmy and Ahmed. Both of them were totally professional but also friendly, knowledgably, accommodating and funny. We laughed. A lot! Jimmy's knowledge of ancient history was extensive. He answered all our questions and made the history really come alive. I am a bit of an ancient Egypt aficionado and I could see his passion for this - he wasn't just reciting information from a script. He went out of his way for us - like helping me get a SIM card for my phone, stopping at stores, revising times to accommodate us, taking us to places for different Egyptian food. The traffic in Cairo was insanely crazy. Ahmed was the most fantastic driver. I felt totally safe when he drove us through the streets. He, also, was so accommodating to us. I think they are the best tour guides in Egypt! If (when) I return I will book with them again. I recommend that you do as well.

Budget tour
We booked the tour 3 months ahead. Two days before it was to begin they refunded our deposit without any explanation and did not respond to messages. Other tour companies were more expensive than the new higher price for our same tour and didn't fit our itinerary so we booked it again paying the higher price only this time through Viator booking agency. Communication was still not good. We had to send a message almost every night asking when the pickup time for the following morning was. Hotel at beginning of tour was excellent and the meals in the restaurant there were good. Cruise ship was a little rundown but the crew were helpful. The chef was very helpful identifying gluten free options. Nice/Sheba tours fulfilled the itinerary. Value for the price cannot be beat even at the higher price. If they would send out an itinerary with pickup and tour details they would be an unbeatable tour provider.
Response from the operator: Dear Sir/ Madam. first of all we would like to thank you for your feed back, but i Believe you submitted your review in wrong location, Here is Egypt Tours Club, We Believe that did not operate that package for you, Please double check the company which managed your tour package, we actually have excellent reputation as we manage our business in perfectly and we always care of our costumers, we are online 24/7 to respond immediately and giving full details about the itinerary, pick-up time, location, guides names, hotels etc in 72 hours before the departure. I believe you will double check your review and the company name which operated your tour. Thanks

Phenomenal trip to Egypt!
This trip was phenomenal! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to experience Egypt. I took this trip with my sister and her family, including young children. Our tour guide, Ali, was very accommodating and really made ancient Egypt come to life with his knowledge of the history and awareness of our age and interest levels. The Nile cruise, camel rides, pyramids, sphinx, Alexandria, ... all of it, the entire trip was amazing! Everything was arranged and went smoothly. I look forward to another trip to Egypt and will definitely book through Egypt Tours Club!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor cost?
+
Prices start at $900 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 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor take?
+
Plan for about 216 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 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 27 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor?
+
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 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 216-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor?
+
Around 9 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 216-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 9 Day Egypt travel Cairo and Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor 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.
