Egypt itineray 12 days: Your Grand Egyptian Odyssey
Looking for the most complete and balanced Egypt travel package? A 12-day Egypt itinerary is ideal, allowing you to seamlessly mix the historical core Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan with valuable downtime and the added cultural bonus of the Mediterranean coast. This itinerary ensures you don’t just rush through the ancient world but truly experience it.
Your journey starts with three dedicated days in and around Cairo. You’ll explore the iconic Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx, delve into the treasures of the Grand Egyptian Museum/GEM, and take a rewarding day trip to the coastal city of Alexandria, home to Roman ruins and the famous Library site.
Next, you’ll embark on the quintessential 4-day Nile River cruise. Sailing along the legendary river is the most relaxing way to reach the monumental sites of Karnak Temple, the silent artistry of the Valley of the Kings, and the spectacular Abu Simbel Temples. This pace offers time to savor the local atmosphere in Aswan and Luxor.
Finally, the itinerary concludes with a three-day escape to the Red Sea coast (Hurghada or Sharm El-Sheikh). After days of exploring tombs and temples, you’ll appreciate the chance to relax on sun-drenched beaches and enjoy world-class snorkeling or diving in the crystal-clear waters. It’s the ultimate blend of ancient history and modern holiday bliss.
