This 7 day family tour covers Cairo and Hurghada across 6 nights, combining pharaonic sightseeing in Giza with an all-inclusive Red Sea resort stay on the same itinerary. The first half puts families inside the Pyramids complex, the Grand Egyptian Museum, the Salah El Din Citadel, and Khan El Khalili Bazaar; the second half delivers three full nights at a beachfront Hurghada resort with snorkeling, beach time, and optional desert activities. No other 7 day family Egypt tour packages offer the same split: 3 nights Cairo sightseeing, then 4 nights Hurghada all-inclusive Red Sea resort, giving kids both halves of Egypt in one trip. Explore other Egypt holidays to compare different routes across the country.
From the moment your family lands in Cairo, the itinerary follows a smooth progression from ancient wonders to Red Sea relaxation. Day 1 opens with a private airport transfer and a Nile Dinner Cruise in Cairo.The ideal start for a relaxing vacation in Egypt for families. Day 2 covers the Giza Pyramids complex in sequence: the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Valley Temple of Khafre, the Great Sphinx, and the Grand Egyptian Museum with its Tutankhamun collection. Day 3 moves through Islamic Cairo: the Egyptian Museum, the Citadel of Salah El Din, the Mohamed Ali Mosque, Al Muizz Street, and Khan El Khalili Bazaar, before a domestic flight delivers the family to their Hurghada resort that evening.
Only on this route
Your private Tripidays representative meets the family at Cairo International Airport, handles luggage, and transfers everyone to your 5-star Cairo hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle. Once checked in and settled, the evening begins on the Nile.
Your family boards a lit-up cruise boat as Cairo's skyline glitters on both banks, live Tanoura dancers spin under the lights while dinner is served on the open deck. The Nile at night runs for roughly 23 kilometres through the city, and from the water, you see a version of Cairo most visitors never get.
Dinner
Your Egyptologist guide collects the family after breakfast for the short drive to the Giza plateau, the core of any 7 day family Egypt tour, Cairo, Hurghada, all-inclusive itinerary. The morning covers the full Giza complex before lunch; the Grand Egyptian Museum fills the afternoon.
You'll stand at the base and feel the scale shift as each limestone block reaches roughly the height of a five-year-old, and there are 2.3 million of them stacked above you. Your guide walks the family around the full eastern face before explaining what the interior passages were actually designed to protect.
Discover the Valley Temple, where kings were prepared for the afterlife. Your guide paints vivid stories that bring the ancient architecture to life.
From the viewing terrace, the Sphinx resolves from a distant silhouette into something far larger and more worn than any photograph prepares you for. Your guide frames the mystery around what it originally looked like: the paint, the uraeus, the missing nose, which tends to hold children's attention longer than the history does.
Explore the treasure-filled halls of the Grand Egyptian Museum, home to the world’s largest collection of ancient artifacts, including the glittering collection of Tutankhamun. There are always fun programmes and events planned for kids and families to enjoy at the GEM.
Breakfast and Lunch
After breakfast and hotel check-out, your guide covers four of Islamic Cairo's most distinct sites before a domestic flight transfers the family to Hurghada in the early evening. Upon arrival, you’ll be transferred to your 5-star beachfront resort, your home for the next 3 days.
You'll enter through the ground-floor galleries where royal mummies rest in climate-controlled cases, each face still recognisably individual after three thousand years. The upper floor holds Tutankhamun's chariot, his hunting bows, and the objects that were placed beside him to use in the afterlife, a completely different set from what you saw at the GEM, and just as worth the hour.
Your guide walks the family up to the citadel's main terrace, where Cairo spreads out in every direction across the haze, minarets, motorways, the Nile, and on a clear day, the Giza plateau visible to the southwest. Built in the twelfth century as a military fortress, it held every Egyptian ruler for nearly seven hundred years.
Step inside and look up at the central dome, which rises 52 metres and is ringed by dozens of Ottoman lanterns that cast the alabaster walls in warm amber light
Your family walks one of the oldest continuously inhabited streets in the world, laid out in the tenth century and still lined with Fatimid, Mamluk, and Ottoman facades that haven't moved in centuries.
You'll turn off Al Muizz Street into a covered market that has been trading in the same lanes since 1382, with copper lanterns, hand-blown glass, spice jars stacked to the ceiling, and workshop doors open onto craftsmen still doing the same jobs their grandfathers did.
Breakfast and Lunch
The family wakes up in Hurghada with nothing scheduled. Three nights at an all-inclusive Red Sea resort means the day belongs entirely to the family, the pace drops, and the kids take over the programme.
Enjoy a full day of leisure at the Red Sea beach, perfect for a family vacation in Hurghada. Whether you prefer swimming in crystal-clear waters, sunbathing on golden beaches, or relaxing by the pool, Hurghada has something for everyone. Optional boat trips, submarine tours, and water sports are bookable directly at the resort's activities desk for families who want something more than a beach day.
Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
A free day at the resort with one optional excursion available for families who want to break up the beach time with something the kids will talk about afterwards.
Your second full day on the Red Sea runs at whatever pace the family sets. Start your day with a hearty breakfast at the resort, then you can enjoy relaxing on the beach or pool, or take a free day in the city of Hurghada. Families who enjoy active experiences can compare this beach-and-resort itinerary with our family adventure in Egypt without a beach tour, which replaces Red Sea leisure time with desert landscapes, historic sites, and more hands-on exploration throughout the journey.
Your family boards an open 4x4 for a circuit across the Eastern Desert ridgelines behind Hurghada. The dunes rise steeply, and the vehicle tips at angles that produce genuine noise from the back seats.
Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
After a last morning at the resort, the family transfers to Hurghada Airport for the domestic flight back to Cairo. One final overnight in the city closes the trip.
Enjoy your last breakfast at your hotel in Hurghada, and enjoy your last day at the Red Sea.
Head out on a snorkeling trip to explore vibrant coral reefs and spot colorful fish in one of the most stunning underwater ecosystems in the world.
Prepare your luggage, transfer to the Hurghada airport, and catch your domestic flight back to Cairo.
Breakfast and Lunch
After a final breakfast and check out, the Tripidays team transfers your family to Cairo International Airport. The 7-day family Egypt tour, Cairo, Hurghada, all-inclusive itinerary ends here, with the pyramids, the Nile, and the Red Sea all covered in a single week.
Breakfast

This all-inclusive tour includes 4 nights in 5-star hotels across Cairo, 3 nights at a 5-star all-inclusive Hurghada beachfront resort, a private Egyptologist guide for all Cairo sightseeing, both domestic flights, a Nile Dinner Cruise, entrance fees to all listed attractions, and daily breakfast with selected lunches and full board at the Hurghada resort.
Yes. 7 days is ideal for exploring Cairo’s major attractions, see the Pyramids, Sphinx, GEM, Citadel, and Old Cairo, while still enjoying multiple leisure days by the Red Sea.
The Hurghada stay covers 3 nights at a 5-star beachfront resort with full board breakfast, lunch, and dinner included on both full resort days. The resort has direct beach access, a pool, and snorkeling from the shoreline, with optional paid excursions including a 4x4 desert safari and boat-based snorkeling trips bookable on arrival.
Yes. The itinerary is built specifically for families traveling with children. Private vehicles eliminate shared-coach waiting, the Egyptologist guide explains every site in a way that holds kids' attention, and the Hurghada resort days are completely unscheduled so families can move at whatever pace suits them. The pacing keeps Cairo to three days of sightseeing before the beach stay begins, which works well for children under ten.
No other 7 day family Egypt tour in the portfolio delivers the same split: 3 nights of structured Cairo and Giza sightseeing followed immediately by 4 nights at an all-inclusive Hurghada Red Sea resort, with both domestic flights included and no long overland transfers between the two destinations. Travelers who enjoy this Cairo and Hurghada mix may also like our Cairo, Luxor, Hurghada couples tour, which adds Luxor’s temples with a more romantic pace and Red Sea relaxation.
