Great experience
We had an 10/10 experience with Amr on our trip from Cairo to Siwa. From the moment he picked us up, he made sure everything was taken care of and always checked that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Amr’s knowledge of the history and culture of Siwa was outstanding. He guided us through many fascinating historic sites, sharing detailed information and stories that made each place even more interesting. He also introduced us to delicious traditional food, giving us a genuine taste of the local culture. What impressed us most was how well he planned the trip. We had limited time in Siwa, but Amr created the perfect schedule, allowing us to see and experience as much as possible without feeling rushed. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visit Siwa.

Not as good as we were expecting
The good: Our driver Sherif was very nice and despite very limited English, did his best to make us feel as comfortable as possible on the trip. We wanted to combine Alexandria with Siwa and this company was great in facilitating this for us. There are some great historical sites in Siwa and the salt lakes are beautiful. The not so good: I would never discourage anyone from visiting places, this is simply to prepare future travellers for the reality of this experience... It was roughly 18 hours of driving there and back from Cairo. The sites in Siwa are ok but in hindsight, not worth 18 hours of driving to see. We finished all the sites in 2 hours so spending anymore than a day there I think is not a good use of time. The car was small with limited leg room and an older aircon system. For such a long time on the road (and roads not in good condition) this was a surprise to us. One of the seat belts didn't work which may not be of concern to some (seatbelts are optional in Egypt) but for a lot of westerners, driving at high speed down desert roads may be a concern. The "eco" lodge was very basic and had a lot of litter around the front and sides of the building. There was no air conditioning, no wifi, no fans and at one stage, no power. We had to ask for a fan and as soon as we left the room the next morning they removed it, so be sure to ask for this on arrival. Communication from the company needs to be improved. We arrived in Siwa at 6pm where we were taken to a small local restaurant to have "lunch". I was then told that dinner was at 10pm. We aren't big eaters so not eating until 6pm was fine for us but I had to be quite forceful when declining dinner less than 4 hours later. We also departed for Alexandria from Cairo at 5am to arrive at 7.30am, however the sites we wanted to see didn't open until 9am. We could have left later but received no advice regarding this. I was told that entry to sites would be included but that was only for Siwa. We had to pay for our entry fees in Alexandria. Not a big deal as they are not expensive - just would have been nice to know in advance. The cost you pay also includes accommodation and meals for your driver. I don't disagree with this, but good for future travellers to know in advance what they are paying for.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza cost?
+
Prices start at $220 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 Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 7 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 Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza?
+
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 Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza?
+
Around 2 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Siwa Oasis All inclusive 2 Days Tour from Cairo & Giza 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.
