Egypt Day Tours & Excursions with Expert Local Guides

Egypt’s greatest sights fit into a single day more easily than most travellers expect. Our Egypt day tours cover the big names, from the Great Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum to Karnak Temple, Philae and Abu Simbel.

Deluxe Tours Egypt is a licensed, IATA-accredited operator and a Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice winner, so you can book with confidence.

In Cairo and Giza, our most popular day trip pairs the Pyramids of Giza, Sphinx and Grand Egyptian Museum in a single day. You can also add Saqqara, Memphis and Dahshur or explore the medieval streets of Islamic Cairo. Browse our Cairo full-day tours for the classics, our Cairo half-day tours if time is tight, or our Cairo layover tours, timed around your flight. Want to leave the city? Day trips also reach Fayoum Oasis and Alexandria.

Further south, our Luxor day tours take in Karnak, the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut Temple. Our Aswan day tours combine Philae Temple, the High Dam and a felucca sail, plus an early start for Abu Simbel. On the Red Sea, Hurghada tours and Sharm El Sheikh tours swap temples for snorkelling, quad biking and St Catherine’s Monastery.

FAQ

What are the best day tours in Egypt?

The most popular are the Pyramids of Giza and Grand Egyptian Museum tour in Cairo, the Luxor East and West Bank tour and the Aswan tour to Philae Temple and the High Dam. For something different, try a sunrise hot air balloon in Luxor or a snorkelling trip to Giftun Island from Hurghada.

How much do day tours in Egypt cost?

Prices depend on the destination, duration and whether the tour is private or shared. Our day tours start from around $20 for an Aswan felucca ride. A group Pyramids tour starts from $25, and the Luxor East and West Bank tour from $55. Private Pyramids and Grand Egyptian Museum tours start from $80. Trips that include a flight, such as Luxor from Cairo, cost more.

Can I visit the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum in one day?

Yes. Our private Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Egyptian Museum tour covers both in about 6 hours. If you have more time, the Ultimate Cairo Day Trip adds a Nile river cruise over roughly 9 hours. Read more in our Grand Egyptian Museum guide.

What day trips can I take from Cairo?

Beyond Giza, popular options include Saqqara, Memphis and Dahshur, Coptic Cairo and Islamic Cairo. Further afield are Fayoum Oasis and Wadi Rayan, the Wadi El Natrun monasteries, Alexandria and El Alamein. For the desert, the White Desert is best as an overnight trip.

Are your day tours private or group?

We offer both. Private tours give you your own guide and vehicle for your party only. For a lower price, shared options like the group tour to the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx are also available.

Is hotel pickup included?

Private tours start with pickup from your hotel and drop-off afterwards. Group tours use a set meeting point, which is listed on each tour page. Arriving or leaving by air? We also arrange airport and hotel transfers across Egypt.

Are day tours in Egypt safe?

The sites our day tours visit are among the most visited in the country, with a visible tourist-police presence. Our tours use licensed guides and vetted drivers. As with any trip, check your government’s latest travel advice before you go, and see our Egypt travel guide for practical tips.
