Pyramids & The Nile by Train
from $959
Duration:
8 Days
Type:
Private Tour
Run:
Every Sat, Wed & Thu
Discover Egypt’s captivating pharaonic history through an exciting tour across the country over river and rail. This cheaper alternative to our popular Egypt by Air tour features the same activities, but you’ll do some traveling via sleeper train instead of taking domestic flights. You’ll visit the Great Pyramids and witness the astounding beauty of the last remaining of the original seven wonders of the ancient world. After exploring the majesty of Cairo’s past and present, you’ll board a sleeper train headed southward to Aswan. A luxury cruise ship awaits you, and you’ll witness the monuments and natural beauty of southern Egypt in style. Spend three days sailing and sightseeing between Aswan and Luxor before heading back to Cairo via train.
Included:
• Skip the airport line with our Fast Track service upon arrival at Cairo International Airport.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- annsI7265ZJ0 contributionsExcellant day trip to LuxorBooked the luxor day trip through this company. Picked up from the hotel early morning by the guide and driver who were friendly and very knowledgeable. There was lots to see the valley of the kings was amazing very worth while. We also had a boat ride on the Nile to a banana plantation which was interesting. We had a meal which was included. We also visited a couple of other ancient sights and monuments lots of photo opportunities. Got back late evening overall the day was superb a must when visiting Eygpt.Written April 3, 2024
- 466oliverad0 contributionsA magical day in DenderaWe went on a private tour from our hotel in Makady bay, through Carent tours. It was an amazing day. Dendera temple is magical, well preseved and not too crowded. The colors inside are incredible and the whole place has some amazing peace. We had a teriffic guide, Heba Mohamed from Luxor, who told us everything about egyptian mythology and the history of this temple. Highly recommended.Written July 13, 2023
- Kate41040 contributionsUnsustainable, harmful to natureAt the start I need to say that members of staff were great. However, the travel model they run is absolutely not sustainable and harmful to nature. You get taxied by a speed boat to where a pod of dolphins is and jump out to stick your head into water to see them. The boat fumes stink, powered by dirty diesel. At some point I felt dizzy from inhaling the fumes. The wildlife is not given any space - they run dirty motors directly above dolphins risking injuring them and even people. Loud and stinky! You're not given any freedom to swim by yourself. Need to be in a group of 20 or more people who jump on your back in a rush to see dolphins. Really not an idyllic experience the company is selling. They want to check out a box of tourists seeing a dolphin, regardless the pollution and harm it causes. Stinky, busy, noisy and harmful to wildlife.Written April 10, 2023
- VWSARAH0 contributionsSnorkelling day experience fantasticWent on a day trip to snorkel the reefs.

- Gill H0 contributionsSwimming with the fishesWe had a fantastic time. Thank you to all who gave us such wonderful memories to keep. Mesmerising, beautiful, nature at it’s finest. Very good value for money. Professional, friendly staff. Book a trip, you’ll have a great day.Written September 19, 2021
- Road493591930300 contributionsMagnificent TripWe had a great time on the dolfins and snorkeling trip. It was an overall very good experience. The boat was in good shape. The staff was very friendly and entertaining. Sometimes a little too much though. The trip itself offered exactly what we were looking for: lots of dolphins and lots of fish's in the riffs. We stopped first for the swimming with the dolphins and than had two stops for snorkeling in the riffs. On the second stop was also banana boat riding possible. The riffs are not in the perfect shape they used to be a couple of years ago, but still decent with some variety. A real highlight was the customer service. I forgot my shirt on the boat and they brought it to my hotel the next day. Thanks again!Written September 24, 2020
- Road493591930300 contributionsnice dayWe went to desert safari ride with quad bike in the desert and near the beach. Everything was amazing. They picked us in time, were very nice and helped us in the.driving. They also took really cool photographs from us ! Totally recommend itWritten September 24, 2020
- Road493591930300 contributionsMagnificent Tripecently went on an excursion for the Jeep Safari including quad-biking, buggy-riding, belly dancing and a village tour to Bedouin to do camel-riding, and me and my partner found it to be an absolutely fantastic, once in a lifetime experience! The pick up was bang on time, the English speaking guide was very helpful and informative and the whole day was well-run. I would recommend anybody to use this service if you want a fuss free, all-inclusive package and an unforgettable time.Written September 24, 2020

- Road493591930300 contributionsSuch Magnificent TripWe booked the Cairo day trip, this trip is long and you are knackered when you get back, however this really is a wonderful day :) picked up on time on a relatively comfy coach, we do a lot of travelling and this was one of the better coaches we have travelled on for room. After a long drive (I had tried to sleep but wanted to take in all of the sites and was entertained for hours) we arrived and transferred to a smaller van, really comfortable and fantastic to see the sights. We had the most amazing tour guide Russia, she was so helpful and made the most of our trip. The trip back was very long and I would have like to have avoided the last stop and left just after we visited the pyramids. But a really wonderful day, and such a fantastic price for everything that was included. Thank you so much for a wonderful dayWritten September 24, 2020
