This itinerary is private and can be customized according to your preferred hotels, cruise category, activities, and travel dates.

A Perfect Combination of History and Romance

The biggest advantage of an Egypt honeymoon is the variety of experiences available during one trip.

You can begin your journey among some of the world’s most famous ancient monuments, continue south to explore magnificent temples and royal tombs, and then relax aboard a Nile cruise.

The itinerary combines:

• Cairo and Giza
• Ancient Egyptian monuments
• Luxor
• Nile cruising
• Edfu
• Kom Ombo
• Aswan
• Romantic experiences
• Optional Abu Simbel
• Optional Red Sea extension

This balance means that your honeymoon does not feel like a nonstop sightseeing tour.

You have time to relax, enjoy the scenery, and create memorable experiences together.

Day 1 – Arrival in Cairo

Your honeymoon begins when you arrive at Cairo International Airport.

Your private representative will welcome you at the airport and assist with your arrival before transferring you to your hotel in Cairo or Giza.

After check-in, enjoy some time to relax after your flight.

If you arrive early enough, you can spend the evening enjoying your hotel or taking a gentle walk around the surrounding area.

You will have time for photographs and to explore the plateau at your own pace.

Your guide will explain the history of Menkaure and the pyramid complex.

Great Sphinx

Continue to the famous Great Sphinx of Giza.
