The monuments and sites that are visited during your trip are chosen by yourself with knowledgeable advice from our experts here at Inside Egypt. The places that you will visit during your custom-guided tour of Egypt will depend on what you want to see and how many days you will spend with us in Egypt.

There are ancient monuments that, in our opinion, must not be missed, and tourists travel from around the world to visit these. As Egypt is such a vast country these monuments are not all located in one place. You will have to travel to different parts of the country, e.g. to the south, to make the most of your time in the country.

When visiting this beautiful country on a custom guided tour of Egypt, you don't want to miss the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx. Also not to be missed in your travel pacage is a visit to Saqqara, Old Cairo, and a wonderful cruise on the longest river in the world, the River Nile. Along the Nile, you'll visit Luxor with its rock tombs and monumental temples, Aswan with the temple of Isis situated on a picturesque island, and also two temples in Abu Simbel, in the far South of the country.

This is our choice of places that need to be seen and ticked off your bucket list, everyone may have a different opinion on what is worth seeing and visiting on all Egypt private tours.

Egypt is not only famous for its ancient monuments. Many people who are interested in architecture and sacred art want to visit the historic Coptic churches, the Coptic Museum, mosques, the Museum of Islamic Art and the synagogues in Cairo. Lovers of mansions and palaces may be interested in the beautiful palaces in Cairo and the Montazah Palace in Alexandria. Nature lovers can admire the deserts, Egyptian oases, and the underwater beauty of the Red Sea.

Egypt has a lot to offer and it is worth spending time considering what to visit on your trip. Tour Egypt by experts and get the most out of your vacation when you create custom tour in Egypt with us at Inside Egypt.

The best time to go on a private Egypt trip to see its ancient outdoor attractions in their best light is late fall, winter, and early spring. 

From mid-October to late April. It is warm, but not hot. You can then explore Egypt in comfort and fully enjoy your Egypt luxury private tour. From May to mid-October in Egypt it is hot, especially in the south of the country (Luxor, Aswan), and the heat deprives travelers of energy and motivation, causing fatigue and lethargy.
