Itinerary Planning Note: Our itinerary includes one extra day compared to most travel agencies. It may seem like a small difference, but it truly transforms the pace of your holiday. Without this extra night, travellers often end up starting their days very early — sometimes as early as 5:00 AM — just to fit everything in. By adding a day, we reduce such rushed mornings, slow down the overall pace, and give you more time to enjoy each experience comfortably. The marginal increase in cost is minimal, but the improvement in the quality of your holiday is remarkable — and absolutely worth it. Note: The tour dates mentioned refer to your arrival and departure in Cairo. Depending on your flight timings, your departure from India may be a day earlier, and your return to India may be a day later than the dates shown. Connect to us and our executives will share these details with you.  Note: The tour price is calculated at an exchange rate of 1 USD = 90 INR. The prevailing exchange rate at the time of balance payment (approximately 45 days before departure) will apply. read more read less
