At Egypt Best Vacations, we’re making this magic even more irresistible with unforgettable Egypt deals on our most popular Egypt tour packages, Nile cruises, and day tours!
A Pyramids and Red Sea tour combines a few days of sightseeing in Cairo, the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, and the Grand Egyptian Museum, with a beach stay on Egypt’s Red Sea coast in Hurghada, Sharm El-Sheikh, or Marsa Alam. It pairs ancient history with sun, snorkeling, and relaxation in a single trip.
Most Pyramids and Red Sea holidays run between 4 and 10 days. A 4–5 day trip covers the Cairo highlights plus a short beach break, while 7–10 days adds extra resort time or a stop in Luxor with a Nile cruise. We recommend at least 5–6 days so you can enjoy both history and the coast without rushing.
Hurghada is the most popular and easiest to reach, with a one-hour flight from Cairo and great-value family resorts. Sharm El-Sheikh suits divers and couples who want world-class reefs such as Ras Mohammed. Marsa Alam is quieter and ideal for relaxed snorkeling. We tailor the choice to your travel style and budget.
Our Pyramids and Red Sea packages start from around $665 per person for a 4-day Cairo and Hurghada trip and rise to about $1,465 for a 10-day Cairo, Luxor and Hurghada itinerary. The final price depends on hotel category, season, group size, and whether domestic flights and a Nile cruise are included.
The fastest way is a short domestic flight, Cairo to Hurghada or Sharm El-Sheikh takes about one hour. Hurghada can also be reached by a scenic 5–6 hour private drive. We arrange all internal flights, private transfers, and timings so the move between the Pyramids and the coast is smooth and stress-free.
October to April is the best time, with warm sunny days, comfortable sightseeing weather in Cairo, and pleasant sea temperatures on the coast. The Red Sea stays warm enough for swimming and diving almost year-round, so summer trips also work well if you don’t mind the stronger heat at the Pyramids.
Packages typically include hotel and resort accommodation, daily breakfast, private airport and intercity transfers, a private Egyptologist guide for Cairo sightseeing, entrance fees to the Giza Pyramids and museums, and domestic flights where needed. Optional extras such as diving, desert safaris, and a Nile cruise can be added on request.
