10 Days / 9 Nights

An Egypt tour in December has never been this complete. All Egypt Tours' 10-day New Year Holiday in Egypt takes you across four of the country's most iconic destinations — Cairo, Aswan, Luxor, and Hurghada — combining ancient history, Nile luxury, and Red Sea relaxation in one perfectly designed adventure.

In Cairo, your private Egyptologist guide leads you to the last remaining ancient wonder of the world: the Giza Pyramids complex and the Great Sphinx. You also explore the Egyptian Museum, home to Tutankhamun's golden mask and over 120,000 pharaonic treasures. A domestic flight then carries you south to Aswan, where your 5-star Nile Cruise begins — three nights of full-board sailing through Upper Egypt's greatest temple sites: Kom Ombo, Edfu, the Valley of the Kings, and the majestic Karnak Temple complex in Luxor.

The adventure closes in Hurghada, Egypt's premier Red Sea resort city, with snorkeling trips over vibrant coral reefs and a Bedouin desert safari. All Egypt Tours manages every detail: A/C transfers, domestic flights, expert guides, 5-star hotels, and 24/7 support. This is your Egypt tour in December, done right.

More Than a Tour, A Masterclass in Egyptian History

As someone deeply interested in ancient history, I had high expectations for my trip to Egypt, and All Egypt Tours exceeded them all. The Nile Cruise portion of our trip was sublime, offering a perfect blend of relaxation and daily discovery. Our journey into Luxor was the heart of the experience for me. Our Egyptologist, Fatima, wasn't just a guide; she was a gifted storyteller who made the complex history of the pharaohs accessible and fascinating. In the Valley of the Kings, she brought the hieroglyphs to life, explaining their meaning with a passion that was truly infectious. After the tranquility of the cruise, we flew to Cairo. Seeing the pyramids at Giza and the enigmatic Sphinx is, of course, a humbling experience. But the visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum was the perfect capstone to the entire trip. To see the treasures of Tutankhamun and countless other artifacts finally displayed with the space and context they deserve is a game-changer for any visitor. From the initial booking process to the final airport drop-off, the professionalism of All Egypt Tours was top-notch. If you want to truly understand Egypt and not just see it, this is the company to choose. See more

We splurged on a premium 10-day private tour, and it was phenomenal. Private Egyptologist guide, luxury hotels, and personalized service throughout. We visited sites before crowds arrived, had access to restricted areas, and enjoyed gourmet meals. The Sanctuary Nile cruise was exquisite—like a floating five-star hotel. Yes, it was expensive, but the experience was flawless. For a once-in-a-lifetime trip, this level of service made all the difference. Can't recommend highly enough for those wanting luxury. See more

As a solo female traveler, I was initially hesitant, but this company made me feel completely safe. I joined a small group tour (8 people), and everyone was friendly. The guide checked in regularly, and I never felt uncomfortable. The itinerary was well-balanced—enough structure to feel secure but also free time to explore independently. Accommodations were good, transport was reliable, and I made friends with other travelers. Egypt is incredible, and this company helped me experience it confidently. See more

My husband and I had never been to Egypt and were nervous about navigating such a different culture. This tour company made everything effortless. Airport pickup was smooth, every excursion was clearly explained, and we never felt rushed or lost. The Egyptian Museum was incredible, and our guide gave us plenty of time to explore without feeling hurried. The optional hot air balloon ride over Luxor was worth every penny. Can't fault this experience—it was exactly what we needed. See more

We just returned from a 10-day trip to Egypt with our two teenagers, and we are still in awe. All Egypt Tours made the entire experience seamless and absolutely magical. Standing before the Great Pyramids in Giza was a moment our family will never forget, and our guide, Hassan, was phenomenal, sharing stories that brought history to life for all of us. A huge highlight was our visit to the new Grand Egyptian Museum. It's simply breathtaking, and seeing the sheer scale of the artifacts in a modern, world-class facility was the perfect contrast to the ancient sites. The Nile cruise was the ideal way to travel south. Waking up to the serene views of the Nile flowing past our window was a daily treat. In Luxor, exploring the massive Karnak Temple complex and the vibrant tombs in the Valley of the Kings felt like stepping into another world. Every airport transfer, hotel check-in, and tour was handled flawlessly, allowing us to relax and soak in the culture without any stress. We felt safe, cared for, and completely immersed in the journey. We wholeheartedly recommend All Egypt Tours to any family looking for the trip of a lifetime. See more

As someone with a deep passion for ancient history, I was not looking for a superficial tour. I communicated my interests to All Egypt Tours, and they crafted a bespoke itinerary that exceeded all my expectations. My guide in Luxor and Aswan, a brilliant woman named Fatma, was a true academic. Her ability to read hieroglyphs on the spot and explain the nuanced differences between temple reliefs was astounding. She took me beyond the main sites to hidden tombs in the Valley of the Nobles and explained the complex theology at the Temple of Seti I in Abydos. The entire operation was seamless, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the history without a single worry. For any serious student of Egyptology or history buff, I cannot recommend this company highly enough. It was a true intellectual pilgrimage See more

Planning a trip to Egypt with our two children (ages 9 and 12) felt overwhelming, but All Egypt Tours made it the smoothest and most incredible journey we've ever taken. From the moment we were greeted at Cairo airport, every detail was handled. Our guide, Mohamed, was a treasure. He had an amazing talent for bringing history to life for our kids, telling them stories about pharaohs and gods that kept them completely captivated, even in the heat! The private, air-conditioned van was a lifesaver, and the chosen hotels were comfortable and family-friendly. The highlight was the Nile Cruise, which was the perfect balance of sightseeing at temples and relaxing on the sundeck. We never once worried about logistics or safety. We just focused on making memories. Thank you for giving our family a perfect Egyptian adventure! See more

I'm not going to lie, I was skeptical about combining Egypt's history with Kenya's wildlife, but All Egypt Tours made it the most mind-blowing trip of my life! One week I was exploring pharaonic tombs, feeling like an archaeologist, and the next I was on safari in the Maasai Mara, watching a lion hunt from meters away. The sheer contrast and the flawless logistics between two such different worlds were insane. Every detail was handled, every transfer was smooth, and every experience was bucket-list worthy.

Just finished the Egypt & Jordan combined tour with All Egypt Tours, and I'm still buzzing! How can one trip be this epic? One day I was standing dwarfed by the Pyramids, feeling the weight of millennia, and the next I was hiking through Petra's Siq, emerging into the breathtaking Treasury. The transitions were seamless, the hotels were incredible, and our guides made every single moment come alive. Seriously, if you're planning a trip to either country, you're doing it wrong if you don't combine them with All Egypt Tours. You'll kick yourself for not experiencing this perfect blend of ancient wonders and desert magic. My friends are already jealous, and they should be! See more

Okay, seriously, if you didn't book your Nile cruise with All Egypt Tours, what even are you doing?! I just got back from their Dahabiya experience, and honestly, I'm ruined for all other travel. While everyone else was crammed on those big boats, we were gliding silently past ancient temples, stopping at private islands for sunset cocktails, and having gourmet meals prepared just for us. The guides were like walking encyclopedias, but also hilarious friends. I saw things no one else gets to see, felt like royalty, and had moments of pure, unadulterated bliss watching the Nile drift by. If you're not booking this, you're missing the real Egypt. Don't say I didn't warn you when you see my photos! See more

The four-night journey offered a unique blend of old-world charm on a modernized boat, immersive cultural encounters through well-organized excursions in Qena, Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Aswan, and a delightful hotel-like ambiance with exceptional personalized service provided by Ahmed and his team of 67 staff members.
