Egypt & Red Sea Vacation Packages

Culture and coast in one trip: Cairo’s monuments plus Red Sea beaches and reefs.

Pyramids First, Then the Beach

Our Red Sea packages balance Egypt’s great monuments with a proper beach holiday: the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, then sun, sea and coral reefs on the Red Sea coast.

Your Cairo days are privately guided. Coastal stays combine time to relax with any included boat trips or group activities shown in the itinerary, giving you both culture and a beach break.

Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh or Dahab?

Hurghada is the easier pairing with Luxor and the Nile Valley and the shorter transfer from the temples. Sharm El Sheikh sits in Sinai with Ras Mohammed and Tiran on its doorstep. Dahab is the coastal base for the 14-day Egypt adventure, with four nights and included group excursions to the Blue Hole, Three Pools and the Colored Canyon. The itinerary shows which coastal excursions are included and which are optional.

★★★★★
Our experience with Nile Empire was excellent from start to finish. Soliman helped us redesign our Egypt trip on very short notice and customized everything around our schedule, including internal flights, hotels, and a Nile cruise. We loved that all sightseeing tours were private, giving us flexibility throughout the trip. The guides, drivers, and overall organization were outstanding, and we never had to worry about anything during our stay in Egypt. The Nile cruise between Aswan and Luxor was one of the highlights of our trip, and the additional tours to Abu Simbel, Dendera, and the Nubian Village made the experience even more special. We highly recommend Nile Empire for anyone looking for a reliable and professionally organized Egypt tour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Red Sea resort is best?
It depends on the route and the beach stay you want. Hurghada pairs with Cairo and the Nile Valley; Sharm El Sheikh offers Ras Mohammed snorkeling; Dahab is the base for the four-night coastal stay in our 14-day adventure. Compare the included activities and free days on each itinerary.
How is the trip split between Cairo and the coast?
Sightseeing first, then the beach. Both our Cairo and Hurghada and Cairo and Sharm El Sheikh itineraries front-load the guided days in Cairo and leave the coast for the back half of the trip.
Are the Cairo days guided?
Yes. Cairo sightseeing is private with your own Egyptologist and vehicle. On the coast there is time to relax, and where a package includes a boat trip or group excursion, such as Orange Bay, Ras Mohammed or the Dahab snorkelling and canyon trips, it is shown in the itinerary and runs as a shared excursion.
