Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about planning private Egypt tours, packages and Nile cruises with Nile Empire.

Are your Egypt tours private?

Yes. Almost every Nile Empire tour is private, with your own Egyptologist guide, private air-conditioned transport, and an itinerary that follows your schedule rather than a fixed group departure.

What is included in an Egypt tour package?

Most packages include hotels, internal flights or train transfers where needed, all entrance fees, daily guided sightseeing, and airport transfers. You can add a Nile cruise, a hot air balloon ride, or extra nights in any city.

Can you create a custom or tailor-made Egypt trip?

Yes. Tell us your dates, interests, and budget, and we will design a custom itinerary around you, whether that is Cairo and the pyramids, a Nile cruise, the Red Sea, or all of them combined.

How many days do I need to visit Egypt?

Five to seven days covers Cairo plus a short Nile cruise or Luxor and Aswan. Ten to fourteen days lets you add the Red Sea, Abu Simbel, or more time at each site. We can match any trip length.

Do you offer Nile cruises?

Yes. We offer Luxor and Aswan Nile cruises, traditional dahabiya sailing boats, and Lake Nasser cruises to Abu Simbel. Each can be booked on its own or as part of a wider Egypt package.

Is it safe and easy to book with Nile Empire?

Yes. We handle the planning, vetted guides, and trusted private transport so your trip runs smoothly. You can reserve with a deposit and pay the balance later, and our team is reachable before and during your trip.
