We chose EgyptaTours for our Nile cruise and Alexandria, and the experience was simply perfect! The tour operator was exceptional in organizing and looked after us with care and professionalism from day one to day two.
We couldn't have asked for more. The cruise was fantastic and allowed us to discover wonderful places along the Nile. Special thanks go to our guide Mona, who, with his impeccable Italian and in-depth knowledge of ancient Egyptian history, managed to convey all the magic and beauty of those places, bringing us back to bygone eras. Thank you so much to everyone for making this experience unforgettable!

We spent 10 days in Egypt assisted by the agency. From the moment we requested the trip quote from Walaa, and specially throughout the entire trip, we had representatives and guides accompanying us.
Providing information about history and culture in an exclusive and easy way to understand! We were lucky to have people like Abdul and Mona and Ahmed (our driver in Cairo).. They did everything calmly and the agency is truly prepared to provide us with the best of Egypt! Highly recommend them. Very grateful.

I planned a trip for my husband and I to come to Egypt for 2 weeks and I wanted to see as much as possible while we were here. I found EgyptaTours and was very pleased with the itinerary options they offered.
My agent was super helpful in the planning process and the accommodations once we arrived to Egypt were OUTSTANDING. Our guides were fabulous, communicative, highly knowledgeable, and super friendly. They even allowed us to alter our itinerary in Egypt to allow us time to see some new things that we didn't know about while planning the trip! We had a wonderful experience and I recommend this company to anyone who wants to see Egypt and learn about the amazing history and culture.

Beautiful Egypt!!!! Our tour, organized by EgyptaTours, was a complete success. Ahmed Amged, my first contact and the one who organized our entire trip, was very kind and provided us with all the necessary information beforehand.
He also kept in touch with us once we arrived in Cairo. The guides have extensive knowledge of Egyptian civilizations and gave us very informative explanations at each of the sites we visited. It was an unforgettable experience!!!

Incredible experience with this agency. Their thoroughness, recommendations, punctuality, and personalized service were impeccable. But above all, the assistance of Rafat Ahmed was outstanding.
He helped us with admirable patience and commitment during the difficulties we encountered at the airport, from arrival to departure, as Iberia lost our luggage and it was difficult to recover it. He spoke with everyone he could, accompanied us 100% of the time it was truly incredible! Extremely grateful!

Had a great tour of Egypt with Egypta tours. From the starting till the end the plan was customized and tailored for my needs. Since I was traveling with my daughter who is infant I had few special needs which they fulfilled.
The tour guide Ms Mona and driver Mr Eid/Mr Ahmed were very co operative and professional. Want to thank Mr Abdallah for making our vacation a memorable one. I would recommend Egypta tours for Egypt vacation.

This travel agency made our week in Egypt! I contacted Egypta Tours via Whatsapp to organize a 8 day trip (Cairo, Luxor & Hurgharda). From the beginning, the communication was very smooth and clear.
From our first airport shuttle after arrival till our last day, everything went very well and services were reliable without surprises.. There was always a driver present and on time and the tour guides were true professionals. I can only recommend!

Selim was a most gracious host, going above and beyond to make us feel at home. From the breathtaking White Desert safari to camping in the Black Desert, from an awe-inspiring hot air balloon ride in Luxor to perfectly arranged inter- and intra-city transfers, every detail was handled flawlessly. Selim also personally showed us around Cairo, making sure we experienced the best of the city. Everything was splendid, and the trip was not just memorable but also very affordable.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mein Schiff 5 Excursions in Egypt

Arriving in Egypt aboard the impressive Mein Schiff 5 offers the ultimate opportunity to explore the magnificent Land of the Pharaohs. Whether your itinerary docks at Safaga Port on the Red Sea or Alexandria Port on the Mediterranean, knowing your excursion options ensures you make the most of your time ashore. Here are the most frequently asked questions to help you plan the perfect shore excursion from the Mein Schiff 5.

Most passengers docking in Safaga choose a full-day trip to Luxor to see the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the sprawling Karnak Temple complex. For a coastal experience, nearby Hurghada offers excellent Red Sea snorkeling, glass-bottom submarine tours, and thrilling 4x4 desert quad safaris.

If the Mein Schiff 5 docks in Alexandria, the most iconic choice is a full-day excursion to Cairo to see the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum. Alternatively, you can enjoy a relaxed city tour of Alexandria’s Greco-Roman sites, such as the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa and the modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina.

The drive from Safaga Port to Luxor takes about 3 to 3.5 hours each way across a secure, well-maintained desert highway. Because of the driving distance, excursions to Luxor are full-day trips that typically last around 10 to 12 hours from port pickup to drop-off.

Yes! If the Mein Schiff 5 has an extended or overnight port call, you can book incredible 2-day itineraries. From Safaga, you can enjoy an overnight stay in Luxor to see the Karnak Sound and Light Show, or even take a 2-day trip that includes a quick domestic flight to see both Cairo and Luxor in one seamless tour.

Booking a private tour provides a vastly superior and flexible experience. You receive a dedicated Egyptologist guide, a private air-conditioned vehicle, and the freedom to travel at your own pace—saving you from waiting around on a slow-moving, 50-passenger cruise bus.

Absolutely. Reputable local operators specialize in cruise logistics and strictly monitor the Mein Schiff 5 docking schedule. Your itinerary is expertly timed with built-in buffers to ensure a safe, punctual return long before the ship departs.

You do not have to travel far to experience Egypt. In Alexandria, a local city tour keeps you just minutes from the port. In Safaga, you can stay near the coast and enjoy world-class marine life by booking a private snorkeling boat, an introductory scuba dive, or a relaxing day pass at a luxury Hurghada beach resort.

Generally, TUI Cruises (Mein Schiff) arranges a blanket transit or port visa for passengers disembarking for shore excursions, with the fee billed directly to your onboard cabin account. It is always wise to confirm your specific visa status with the onboard guest services team before arrival.

Yes, local tour operators use premium, modern vehicles for all excursions. Whether you book a luxury sedan for two or a spacious minivan for a family, you will enjoy powerful air-conditioning and comfortable seating throughout the desert crossings to Luxor or Cairo.

Sun protection and comfort are your main priorities. Wear light, breathable clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, and sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes for the sandy and uneven terrain at the temples. Do not forget your sunglasses, high-SPF sunscreen, and your cruise boarding card.
