Day 1: Arrival in Cairo & Nile Dinner Cruise
Your first day of the 7 Days Cairo, Nile Cruise and Alexandria Family Tour opens calmly and without pressure. Upon arrival in Cairo, a member of Egypt Tours Group welcomes you and smoothly handles every detail from the very first moment. No rush, no confusion, just a relaxed beginning that sets the tone for a private family tour in Egypt.
Dinner Nile Cruise:
After a short rest at your hotel, the evening unfolds gently on the Nile during a relaxed dinner cruise. Soft lights reflect on the water as music drifts quietly in the background and Cairo moves slowly along both riverbanks. It’s a calm and welcoming introduction to your Egypt family vacation, giving everyone time to settle in before the journey deepens.
Meals: Dinner
Day 2: Pyramids – Grand Museum – Fly to Aswan
The day begins with breakfast at the hotel, then your guide meets you for a full journey into Egypt’s oldest stories. This day forms one of the most memorable chapters of your 7 Days Family Holiday in Egypt, blending iconic landmarks with a smooth, well-paced experience.
Giza Pyramids Complex:
The moment you step onto the plateau, everything feels larger and older than expected. Wide open spaces, strong desert light, and the quiet presence of the three pyramids standing together create an atmosphere that feels both powerful and humbling.
The Great Pyramid of Khufu:
Up close, the scale becomes something you feel more than simply see. The massive stones, precise angles, and the weight of time give the structure a sense of purpose and enduring strength.
The Great Sphinx:
With the body of a lion and the face of a human, the Sphinx continues to watch over the plateau. Its calm, unreadable expression adds a quiet mystery that stays with you long after you leave.
The Valley Temple:
Smooth stone surfaces, cool passageways, and simple architectural lines invite you to imagine the ancient rituals once performed within these walls.
The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM):
A bright, modern space that brings the ancient world into clear focus. Inside, carefully displayed artifacts help explain the pyramids, the kings, and the ideas that shaped early Egyptian civilization.
After the visit, you enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before heading to the airport for your flight to Aswan.
Upon arrival, your guide escorts you to the Nile Cruise for check-in, where a quiet evening onboard allows you to unwind as the river journey begins.

Day 3: Aswan Highlights – High Dam & Philae Temple
On the third day of your Egypt family adventure, you enjoy breakfast onboard before meeting your guide for a day shaped by Aswan’s calm atmosphere. This gentle pace reflects the spirit of an Egypt Family Tour Package, where discovery feels relaxed and unhurried.
The High Dam:
Wide stretches of water meet open skies, creating a simple yet powerful view. Standing here gives a clear sense of how this landmark reshaped the landscape and daily life along the Nile.
The Unfinished Obelisk:
A massive block of granite still rests exactly where ancient craftsmen left it. Seeing it in place reveals the effort, precision, and skill behind every obelisk that eventually rose across Egypt.
Philae Temple:
Soft light, gentle water, and a temple rich with stories of Isis and ancient devotion surround you here. The island setting adds a quiet sense of separation, making the visit feel especially peaceful.
You return to the cruise for lunch and time to rest as the river flows steadily by, continuing a relaxed guided Nile Cruise experience.
Dinner is served onboard, ending the day with another calm evening on the water.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 4: Nile Cruise Sailing – Kom Ombo & Edfu
Today the cruise sails north, and the scenery becomes part of the experience; quiet villages, palm-lined banks, and the steady rhythm of the river. After breakfast, your guide meets you for two visits that unfold naturally along this 7 Days Cairo, Nile Cruise and Alexandria Family Tour.
Kom Ombo Temple:
A balanced double temple with open courtyards and detailed carvings that reflect daily life, medicine, and ancient rituals. Its straightforward layout feels calm and easy to explore, yet rich in meaning.
Edfu Temple:
One of Egypt’s best-preserved temples, defined by high walls, clear inscriptions, and a design that allows you to picture exactly how ceremonies once took place within its halls.
You return to the cruise for lunch and continue sailing toward Luxor, with the river quietly guiding the day forward. Dinner is served onboard, followed by another peaceful night on the Nile.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 5: Luxor Overday – East & West Bank Exploration
The day starts early with breakfast onboard the cruise before heading out for a full journey across Luxor’s west and east banks. It’s a long but rewarding day, forming a key highlight of your 7 Days Egypt Family Holiday Package.
Karnak Temple:
A vast world of towering pillars and open courtyards unfolds here. Moving between light and shadow, each section carries its own rhythm as your guide connects the stories in a clear, grounded way that never feels overwhelming.
The Valley of the Kings:
Quiet mountains surround carved entrances leading into tombs filled with colors that have survived for thousands of years. Inside, the scenes feel remarkably preserved, almost as if they were waiting to be rediscovered.
Hatshepsut Temple:
Clean architectural lines rise directly from the cliffs, creating a sense of balance and symmetry. Despite its age, the design feels calm and surprisingly modern in appearance.
Colossi of Memnon:
Two silent statues stand facing the sunrise, open and timeless as they watch over the fields. Their simplicity leaves a lasting impression before the journey continues.
After completing the visits, you stop for lunch at a local restaurant before heading to the airport for your flight back to Cairo. Upon arrival, your driver escorts you to the hotel, where a quiet evening allows you to rest after a full day of exploration.

Bright, modern, and wide open, the library stands as a symbol of knowledge and continuity. Its presence near the site of the ancient library creates a strong link between past learning and present culture.

Set at the edge of the Mediterranean, waves crash gently against the rocks below the walls. The fortress carries a powerful atmosphere of strength and history, with sea views that invite a quiet pause.

A single tall column rises alone within an open space. Its simplicity is striking, and its presence feels surprisingly strong despite the quiet surroundings.
