Questions
What careful travellers ask first
How does planning work?
Use the trip planner to tell us your dates, interests, pace and budget. You see a draft route immediately, and our team then refines it with you by email and sends a full proposal with prices.
Do I pay when I submit the planner?
No. The planner is a request for a proposal. Nothing is charged until you have reviewed and agreed an itinerary.
Are the trips private?
Our itineraries are designed around you or your group rather than sold as fixed group departures. Guides, transfers and pacing are arranged to suit your party.
Which places can you include?
Cairo and Giza, Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Nile cruises, Alexandria, Siwa, the White Desert, the Red Sea and Sinai. Read the destination guides for detail on each.
