Incredible 7 day luxury Egypt holiday Cairo, Luxor & Aswan

This 7 day luxury Egypt holiday covers Cairo, Luxor, Dendera, Abydos, and Aswan across six nights in 5-star hotels with a private Egyptologist on every site. It is the only luxury Egypt holiday combining Dendera and Abydos temples with Cairo's pyramids, Luxor's Valley of the Kings, and Aswan's Philae Temple with rooftop Nile-view dining in Aswan, Luxor Temple at night, and a private Egyptologist throughout. Travelers exploring broader luxury travel options can also browse our Luxury Tours of Egypt for additional high-end itineraries across the country.

The itinerary opens in Cairo with the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Valley Temple of Khafre, the Great Sphinx, and the Grand Egyptian Museum on Day 2. A domestic flight to Luxor on Day 3 leads to the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, the Colossi of Memnon, Karnak Temple, and Luxor Temple by night. Day 4 is the itinerary's defining excursion: Dendera Temple and Abydos Temple, two sites absent from every other 7-day luxury Egypt tour on the market. Day 5 travels by private vehicle to Aswan for Philae Temple, the Aswan High Dam, and a rooftop Nile-view dinner. Day 6 returns to Cairo by domestic flight for Salah El Din Citadel, the Mohamed Ali Mosque, and the layered heritage of Old Cairo, the Hanging Church, Ben Ezra Synagogue, and the Coptic Museum.

Itinerary

  • Day 1: Luxury Cairo Arrival & Nile Dinner

    Your private Tripidays representative meets you at Cairo International Airport and transfers you directly to your 5-star hotel, no queues, no shared transport.

    meal

    Nile Dinner Cruise

    You board a private-style dinner on the Nile as Cairo's skyline lights up on both banks, with Egyptian cuisine and live traditional music setting the tone for the week. The Nile at night looks entirely different from the Nile by day — wider, quieter, and unexpectedly still.

  • Day 2: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and GEM

    After breakfast at your hotel, your private Egyptologist picks you up for the full Giza experience, ending the day at the world's largest archaeological museum.

    The Great Giza Pyramids

    You stand at the base of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, and the scale takes a moment to process — at 146 metres, it held the record as the tallest structure on earth for nearly 4,000 years. Your Egyptologist moves you through all three pyramids with context that no audio guide provides.

    The Valley Temple of Khafre

    Enter the temple where Khafre's priests carried out the embalming rituals before his burial. The polished granite walls and the quality of the stonework here are unlike anything else at Giza. Most visitors walk past this site entirely; your private guide makes sure you don't.

    The Sphinx

    You'll stand close enough to read the weathering on the limestone and understand why Egyptologists still debate whether the face matches any known pharaoh. At 73 metres long, it is the largest monolithic statue in the world.

    Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM)

    Your VIP access takes you through over 100,000 artifacts across the largest archaeological museum ever built, including the complete Tutankhamun collection, moved here from the Egyptian Museum. Skip the public queues entirely; your guide moves you through the galleries at your own pace.

  • Day 3: Fly to Luxor - East & West Bank

    A morning domestic flight from Cairo delivers you to Luxor in under an hour, where your private Egyptologist meets you at the airport. This is the itinerary's longest sightseeing day and one of the richest in the 7 day luxury Egypt holiday.

    Valley of the Kings

    Your guide takes you into the decorated burial chambers of Egypt's most powerful pharaohs, where the walls are covered in the full text of the Amduat — the ancient Egyptian guide to the underworld. You visit three tombs selected for their paintwork and depth, away from the most crowded corridors.

    Hatshepsut Temple

    Stand at the colonnaded terraces of Deir el-Bahari and look up at the cliff face rising directly behind the temple — the architecture was designed to appear carved from the rock itself. Hatshepsut ruled Egypt for over 20 years and built this mortuary temple as a statement that outlasted every attempt to erase her name.

    Colossi of Memnon

    You pull up alongside two seated quartzite figures, each 18 metres tall, that have stood on the West Bank flood plain since 1350 BC.

    Karnak Temple

    Walk the Avenue of Sphinxes into the largest religious complex ever built the Hypostyle Hall alone contains 134 columns, each wide enough for 50 people to stand on top. Your private guide gives you a reading of the site that takes in 2,000 years of construction by successive pharaohs.

    Luxor Temple

    You return to the East Bank after dark for Luxor Temple illuminated — the ochre sandstone turns deep amber under the lights, and the avenue of sphinxes leading to the entrance is a different experience entirely from the daytime version. Very few 7-day luxury Egypt holidays include this as a dedicated evening visit.

    Breakfast and Lunch

  • Day 4: Dendera and Abydos

    Your Egyptologist picks you up after breakfast for the excursion that separates this itinerary from every other 7 day luxury Egypt holiday. Dendera and Abydos lie north of Luxor and are visited together in a full-day private excursion before returning to your Luxor hotel in the evening.

    Dendera Temple 

    You enter one of the best-preserved temple complexes in all of Egypt, where the painted astronomical ceiling of the Hypostyle Hall — covering the full zodiac in vivid colour — is still largely intact after 2,000 years. Most visitors to Luxor never make it here; the drive north takes under an hour, and the site is nearly always quiet.

    Abydos Temple

    Walk through the seven sanctuaries of Seti I's temple, where some of the finest raised relief carving in ancient Egypt lines every wall — finer, many Egyptologists argue, than anything at Karnak or Luxor. Abydos was Egypt's most sacred city for 3,000 years, the burial ground of the earliest pharaohs and the site of the Osiris myth at its source.


    meal

    Breakfast and Lunch

  • Day 5: Private Drive to Aswan - Philae Temple

    Your private vehicle departs Luxor after breakfast for the 215km drive south to Aswan, a comfortable three-hour journey through the Nile Valley with your Egyptologist on board.

    Philae Temple 

    You take a short motorboat across the reservoir to reach Philae, an island temple complex dedicated to Isis that was dismantled stone by stone and rebuilt on higher ground to save it from the rising waters of Lake Nasser. The approach by water with the temple columns rising from the island is one of the most composed arrivals of any site in Egypt.

    Aswan High Dam

    Stand on the dam that reshaped the Nile and created Lake Nasser, 3,830 metres long, which holds back a reservoir stretching 550km into Sudan. Your guide frames the engineering, the political history, and the cost of what was built here without turning it into a lecture.

    Breakfast and Lunch

  • Day 6: Fly Cairo - Citadel & Old Cairo

    A morning domestic flight returns you from Aswan to Cairo, where your Egyptologist picks you up at the airport for an afternoon that covers three distinct layers of the city's history.

    Salah El Din Citadel

    You enter the medieval fortress that commanded Cairo for 700 years, built by Saladin in 1176 on a promontory where you can see the full spread of the city laid out below. The scale of the walls and the elevation make it immediately clear why this was the seat of power for every ruler who followed.

    Mohamed Ali Mosque

    Step inside the Ottoman mosque that dominates the Citadel's skyline — the alabaster-lined courtyard and the twin minarets visible from across Cairo make this one of the most recognizable buildings in Egypt. Your guide explains why Mohamed Ali chose an Ottoman architect rather than an Egyptian one, and what that decision signalled.

    Hanging Church 

    You descend into the Coptic quarter of Old Cairo to visit one of the oldest Christian churches in Egypt, built suspended over the gatehouse towers of the Roman fortress of Babylon. The carved ivory screens and the collection of icons inside date the continuous Christian presence in this neighbourhood to the 3rd century.

    Ben Ezra Synagogue

    Steps from the Hanging Church, this is one of the oldest synagogues in Egypt and the site where the Cairo Geniza, one of the most significant collections of medieval Jewish manuscripts ever found, was discovered in 1896. The interior has been carefully restored, and your guide explains what the Geniza revealed about Jewish life in medieval Cairo.

    Coptic Museum

    Your private guide takes you through the world's largest collection of Coptic Christian art textiles, manuscripts, icons, and carved stonework spanning the 3rd to 19th centuries — in a building that sits directly on the Roman walls of Babylon. The museum closes the Old Cairo visit with the full arc of the neighbourhood's history in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions

This tour includes 6 nights in 5-star hotels across Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan, a private Egyptologist for all 7 days, two domestic flights (Cairo to Luxor and Aswan to Cairo), all entrance fees across every site, daily breakfast, selected lunches, a Nile dinner on Day 1, and all transfers by private air-conditioned vehicle. International flights, visa, travel insurance, and tips are not included.

It is the only 7-day luxury Egypt holiday that includes Dendera and Abydos as a dedicated full-day excursion — two of Egypt's most significant temple sites that no other luxury package in this duration covers. The combination of Dendera, Abydos, Luxor Temple at night, rooftop Nile-view dining in Aswan, and a single private Egyptologist across all seven days is not replicated elsewhere. For a luxury tour focused exclusively on Cairo and Alexandria instead, see our private Cairo Alexandria tour.

Dendera's Temple of Hathor contains the most complete painted astronomical ceiling in ancient Egypt — the zodiac ceiling in the Hypostyle Hall is intact, vivid, and rarely crowded. Abydos is Egypt's oldest royal burial ground and the site where the Osiris myth originated, with wall reliefs in Seti I's temple that Egyptologists consistently rank among the finest carving in the ancient world. For travelers who want the same Upper Egypt destinations with a classic tier, see our classic Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan overland tour.

Yes. The fully private structure, private Egyptologist, private vehicle, private transfers, and no group departures at any point make this itinerary well-suited to couples and honeymooners who want to move at their own pace. The Nile dinner on Day 1, the night visit to Luxor Temple, and the rooftop dinner in Aswan are all naturally suited to a couple's or honeymoon experience.

Yes. Two domestic flights are included: Cairo to Luxor on Day 3 and Aswan to Cairo on Day 6. All flight tickets are arranged and covered by Tripidays — no separate booking is required.
