Our Cairo Day Tours
Private, fully guided day tours led by a licensed Egyptologist.
Why Book a Private Tour
No group bus, no shared schedule, no waiting on strangers.
Your Schedule, Not a Bus Schedule
Spend as long as you want at the Pyramids or the Grand Egyptian Museum, and skip anything that doesn't interest you. There's no group pace to keep up with and no itinerary built around someone else's priorities.
No Commission-Based Shopping Stops
Some budget tours route through papyrus shops or perfume stores where the guide earns a commission, cutting into your actual sightseeing time. Our tours don't do that, every hour is spent seeing what you came to see.
No Other Travelers
Your guide and driver are dedicated to your group for the entire day. You're not sharing a van, a guide's attention, or your pace with strangers you've never met.
Built Around What You Want
Want more time at one site and less at another, or a stop for photos somewhere that's not on the standard route? Tell your guide and the day adjusts. And if neither of our two tours is quite right, we'll design one that is, built entirely around what you want to see.

Cairo Tour Questions, Answered
What's Included in a Private Cairo Tour?
Every tour includes your Egyptologist guide, private door-to-door transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle, all entrance fees, and bottled water throughout the day. There’s no group bus and no shared itinerary, your guide and driver are yours for the entire tour.
Are Private Cairo Day Tours Worth the Cost?
A private tour costs more upfront than a seat on a shared bus, but you’re not paying for someone else’s schedule. You set the pace, skip what doesn’t interest you, and avoid the commission-based shopping stops that pad out cheaper group tours.
How Do I Find the Best Tours in Cairo?
The right tour depends on what you want to see. Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum covers the essentials in one day, while Saqqara, Dahshur, and Memphis goes deeper into Egypt’s oldest pyramids with far fewer crowds. If neither fits exactly what you’re after, we’ll build one that does.
How Much Do Cairo Tour Packages Cost?
Our private tours start at $250 and $200 per group, not per person. Pricing includes everything listed above, guide, transportation, entrance fees, and water, with nothing added once you’re in Cairo.
Can I Hire a Private Tour Guide for a Group in Cairo?
Yes. Both tours are built for private groups of any size, families, couples, or larger parties traveling together. Reach out with your group size and we’ll confirm availability and pricing.
What Other Cairo Excursions Can You Arrange?
If you’re looking for something beyond these two tours, a day trip to Alexandria, a Nile cruise connection, or anything else in Egypt, tell us what you have in mind and we’ll put together an excursion or route it to the right part of your itinerary.
