Most guests choose either:

A 4-day / 3-night cruise
A 5-day / 4-night cruise

Private bathroom with shower
Air-conditioning
Twin beds or a double bed, depending on the cabin
Basic storage like a wardrobe and small desk
Some departures feature a limited number of suites, which usually offer more space and a seating area. Exact layouts depend on the operator that runs your sailing.

Yes, cruises are usually sold on a full-board basis. That means you get:

Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner
Meals are typically served as buffets with a mix of Egyptian and international dishes. Drinks are often not included, except for tea or coffee at breakfast, so plan for extra costs for bottled water, soft drinks, and alcohol.

A restaurant for main meals
One or more bars or lounges
A small shop for snacks, water, and basics
Some sailings list extras such as a spa room, gym equipment, or evening entertainment like a Galabeya party or folkloric show. Check the current description for your specific departure.

The dress code is casual and comfortable. Light, breathable clothing works best in Egypt's climate.

Guidelines that help:

Comfortable walking shoes or sandals for temples
Light layers, since air-conditioning can feel cool
Modest clothing for visiting religious sites, such as shoulders and knees covered

Keep in mind:

Excursions often involve walking on uneven ground and in hot weather
Very young children may find the long sightseeing days tiring

 Verified Tour Review I planned a trip for my husband and I to come to Egypt for 2 weeks andI 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 itenerary 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.
