Things to know before your Egypt trip

What does a trip to Egypt look like?

A typical Egypt itinerary might begin in Cairo, where ancient wonders meet modern city life. Travelers often visit the Giza Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum before heading south to Luxor for its monumental temples and tombs. Aswan offers a slower pace on the Nile, perfect for sailing on a felucca or visiting Philae Temple.

For something more remote, explore Siwa Oasis, the otherworldly White Desert, or the coral reefs of Dahab. Every journey can balance ancient heritage with adventure and local life.
