Morning in Cairo opens with dust and sunlight turning limestone gold; the city hums, vendors call, and the Nile threads the valley like a slow silver road. This eight-day itinerary moves from Giza’s plateau to the cool terraces of Alexandria, then south by air and by a deluxe Nile cruise through Aswan, Kom Ombo, Edfu and Luxor, finishing with a dawn hot-air balloon over the West Bank and a return to Cairo.

8 days.
Suitable for travelers who can handle moderate walking on uneven ground, repeated stair climbs, and short domestic flights.
Yes — the itinerary includes domestic flights (Cairo–Aswan and Luxor–Cairo) as part of the package.
The balloon is included but weather-dependent; operators can cancel for safety, and schedules typically launch at dawn.
Most nationalities require a visa; some can obtain an e-Visa before arrival or a visa on arrival—check current Egyptian consulate guidance before travel.
Many hotels and cruise areas are wheelchair-accessible, but ancient sites often have uneven terrain and stairs; assistance can be arranged but access is limited at some monuments.
The tour highlights layers of Egyptian history—from Old Kingdom pyramids to Ptolemaic temples and temples relocated during UNESCO’s Aswan campaigns, reflecting millennia of continuous occupation.
