Our Egypt shore excursions are private day tours that start and end at your cruise port. Your guide meets you at the port, you travel in a private air-conditioned vehicle, and we plan the day around your ship’s arrival and departure times.
Choose your port: Alexandria, Port Said, Sokhna or Safaga. From the northern ports, most travelers visit the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum; from Safaga, the temples of Luxor.
