4 Days

The Cairo Alexandria Cultural Tour is for travellers who want to understand Egypt, not simply tick it off a list. Instead of following the usual route through Egypt’s most famous ancient monuments, this four-day journey focuses on historic streets, traditional homes, local markets, religious heritage, Greco-Roman sites, and the Mediterranean character of Alexandria. Travel through the centuries that shaped the country. In Islamic Cairo, walk along Al-Muizz Street and visit an Ottoman-era house, where carved façades and quiet courtyards show how Cairenes once lived.  In Alexandria, descend into the Catacombs of Kom El-Shoqafa, where Egyptian, Greek, and Roman art share the same chambers, then visit the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, a modern tribute to one of the ancient world’s most celebrated libraries. Between visits, discover local flavors and travel along the Corniche with the Mediterranean beside you. With Respect Tours, Egypt Through Local Eyes, your airport transfers, private transportation, three nights in 4-star hotels, guided sightseeing, and travel between Cairo and Alexandria are arranged in advance. Welcoming travellers since 1978, our local team brings the two cities together in a balanced short break with time for history, local culture, waterfront views, and everyday Egyptian life. Price From $760 per person sharing a double room. The published rate is valid until December 20, 2026. Prices after this date and during Christmas, New Year, and other holiday periods are available upon request.  

What happens inside the Grand Egyptian Museum after the galleries close? Beginning on November 1, 2026, the museum’s Grand Hall will become the setting for Eternal Sun, a new evening experience that brings the story of ancient Egypt to life through light, music, and moving images. As the lights fade, the huge statue of Ramses II becomes the center of the show. For 35 minutes, images move across the walls and architecture while music and storytelling take you through 5,000 years of Egyptian civilization. Instead of viewing history from behind glass, you watch it unfold around you as the museum itself becomes part of the experience. This three-day package builds a complete Cairo journey around that special evening. See the Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, and the Grand Egyptian Museum in daylight, then return after dark for the Eternal Sun Grand Egyptian Museum Tour. The journey also includes Old Cairo, connecting the age of the pharaohs with the cultures and communities that shaped the city in later centuries.

Lake Nasser Cruise To Abu Simbel A journey beyond the Aswan High Dam reveals a quieter side of Egypt. Across Lake Nasser, cruise ships are few, desert shores stretch into the distance, and ancient Nubian temples stand far from the usual tourist routes. Reaching them by cruise turns the journey itself into part of the experience, with peaceful sailing between archaeological sites that many visitors never see. This five-day Aswan to Abu Simbel cruise follows the historic Nubian temple route across Lake Nasser. Visit Kalabsha, Wadi El Seboua, Amada, and other monuments that were moved to higher ground before the lake rose. Between visits, relax on board and watch the desert landscape pass slowly by before reaching Abu Simbel, where the colossal statues of Ramses II rise above the lakeside as the final and most powerful stop.
