Your guide to a week in Cairo, the desert and Luxor

This trip mixes ancient monuments with one of the most beautiful landscapes in Egypt. Here is what each part of the week brings.

Cairo and Giza

You start with the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx and the Step Pyramid at Sakkara, and end the week in Old Cairo with its churches, mosques and the bazaar of Khan El Khalili.

A night in the White Desert

From Bahariya Oasis a 4×4 takes you through the Black Desert to the White Desert, where wind-carved chalk rocks rise from the sand. You watch the sunset, eat by the fire and sleep under the stars.

Luxor

A night in Luxor gives you both banks: the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut’s temple on the west, and Karnak and Luxor Temple on the east.

Best time to go

October to April is ideal: warm days in Luxor and cool, clear nights in the desert. In summer the desert is very hot by day.
