Overview
This private 7 day route links Cairo and Giza with a hotel-based journey through Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Aswan. Two domestic flights avoid unnecessary overnight travel, while separate stays in Luxor and Aswan give the temples, tombs, and river scenery a comfortable order rather than treating Upper Egypt as a corridor to rush through.
It works especially well for travellers who prefer a land-and-hotel route to a cruise but still want the classic Nile Valley story. Our guides to planning a first Luxor visit and deciding how long to stay in Aswan show why the route protects time in both cities. The accommodation tier changes the style of stay, not the fixed sightseeing journey.
Tour Highlights
A quick look at the places and experiences built into this private Egypt route.

Why You'll Love This Tour
- Begin with a warm Cairo welcome and a light first evening shaped around the arrival schedule.
- Give Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum a full day before flying south.
- Separate Luxor East Bank and West Bank touring so the major sites do not compete for attention.
- Use the Luxor-to-Aswan road day to visit Edfu and Kom Ombo in their natural order.
- Protect a complete Aswan morning before a suitably timed later flight to Cairo.
- Choose the accommodation level that suits you without changing the published route.
Itinerary
Arrive at Cairo International Airport, meet your Egypt Story representative, and transfer by private air-conditioned vehicle to your hotel. When the arrival schedule provides a comfortable service window, the evening includes a welcome dinner cruise on the Nile. Late-night arrivals follow a rest-first arrival plan at the hotel.
Meals Included
Explore the Giza Plateau with the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Valley Temple. After lunch at a local restaurant, continue to the Grand Egyptian Museum for a focused introduction to ancient Egyptian history, then return to your Cairo hotel.
Meals Included
Transfer to Cairo Airport for the domestic flight to Luxor. After arrival and hotel coordination, visit Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple with your private Egyptologist. Keeping the East Bank together protects a clear first afternoon in Luxor before returning to the hotel.
Meals Included
Cross to Luxor's West Bank to explore the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon. Lunch is included at a local restaurant, followed by a calmer return to the Luxor hotel after the open-air tomb and temple visits.
Meals Included
Travel south by private air-conditioned vehicle, visiting Edfu Temple and Kom Ombo Temple in route order. Lunch and planned comfort breaks divide this longer Upper Egypt road day before arrival and hotel check-in in Aswan.
Meals Included
Visit Philae Temple by motorboat, the Aswan High Dam, and the Unfinished Obelisk. After lunch, transfer to Aswan Airport for a suitably timed later flight to Cairo, then continue to your Cairo hotel for the final night.
Meals Included
After breakfast, transfer privately to Cairo International Airport for departure assistance.
