Top Egypt Excursions & Day Tours

The tour was incredible overall, but the 4-hour drive to Bahariya Oasis was harder than I expected. I wish there had been more scenic stops to break it up. Still, the desert and pyramids were unforgettable, so I’d still recommend it.

The company's professionalism was evident from start to finish. The vehicle was spotless, and the driver was very safe. Our guide was an expert and a fantastic host. I will definitely be using Memphis Tours for future trips.

We brought our two kids (ages 11 and 14), and they were fascinated by everything from the pyramids to the temples. The guides kept them engaged, which was priceless.

I was initially nervous, but the company's team made me feel incredibly welcome from the moment I landed in Cairo. Their attention to detail was exceptional. From the airport transfer to the check-ins, every staff member was trained to make solo guests feel comfortable and safe.

While all the sites were amazing, the most memorable moment was a small act of kindness. When I was feeling a bit under the weather, one of the cruise staff members brought me a special herbal tea, unprompted. It was a simple gesture, but it showed how much the team genuinely cares for their guests.

We came to Marsa Alam for the beaches, but this day trip was the best part of our whole trip. The guide was so passionate, and the sheer grandeur of Karnak Temple was astounding. We couldn't believe how much we saw in a single day.

I've seen the tombs and temples from the ground, but seeing them from the sky was something else entirely. The sheer scale and layout of the ancient city become so clear. This tour gave me a whole new appreciation for Luxor.

I thought I knew what to expect, but the scale of Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, and the snorkeling in Sharm blew me away.

We were a group of four friends and this trip gave us the perfect mix—exploring temples by day, laughing on the cruise deck, and dancing at Hurghada resorts at night.

Meeting locals in the oases and seeing their traditions was eye-opening. I felt connected to the culture, not just sightseeing.

Great Trip, But Exhausting Pace

Everyone went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. We were treated like VIPs the whole time.

This was the most incredible experience of my entire trip. We got to see the Valley of the Kings and Queen Hatshepsut's Temple from a perspective that's just impossible from the ground. The sunrise was absolutely stunning, and the peacefulness of floating in the air was surreal. The whole team was professional and made us feel so safe.

I wasn’t sure what to expect food-wise, but the meals—both on land and the cruise—were delicious. Lots of variety and very fresh.

The pyramids, Nile cruise, and Sharm were all amazing, but I felt like we were packing and unpacking constantly. I’d give it 3 stars only for the pace—otherwise, the service and sites were excellent.

My fiancé and I were swept up in the magic of Egypt, but what truly stood out was how every part of the trip felt tailored for us. We were especially touched on our Nile cruise when we mentioned our shared love for astronomy. That evening, our guide surprised us by arranging a private deck viewing with a small telescope, pointing out constellations over the ancient temples. It was a

Didn’t expect such tasty meals in the middle of the desert. Fresh, plentiful, and well-prepared throughout the trip. I became addicted to tea with fresh mint.

This trip was the perfect balance of history and leisure. The Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple at night left me speechless. The service on the cruise was top-notch, and the guides went above and beyond.

The balance between history in Cairo, the Nile cruise, and relaxation at Hurghada was brilliant. Visiting the Valley of the Kings and then unwinding by the sea was a dream combination.
