This applies to luxury private tour in Egypt as well. December to February is usually the primary season time in Egypt. This is the phase when the weather is at its best and prices for everything is also at its peak. Therefore, if you choose to travel anywhere from between March and April or September to November, you may be able to book great trips at lesser prices.

 

Pick tour packages that offer more value for money


Not all tour packages are designed alike. Prices and inclusions differ from operator to operator. A little research on top trusted tour operators in Egypt can help you access packages that will give you greater value for money.

Decide basic v/s Luxury -


At all times, luxury private tour in Egypt will cost way more than basic trips and this may or may not include air fare. Luxury private trips usually come with high end (at least) 5 star accommodation, private tour guides, complete guided tours with conveyance included and more, that inevitably bulks up the cost. However, over the past few years, innovative and dynamic tour operators in Egypt have managed to introduce luxury packages that are approachable by all.

Ground Rules On Etiquettes You Must Remember While Traveling To Egypt


If you have planned on travelling to Egypt for a vacation anytime this year or next, it may be one of the best decisions you have taken towards making memories for a lifetime. However, it is necessary that you understand the social and cultural picture of the nation before heading out so that unnecessary hassles or harassments can be avoided later.

Very unlike developed western nations, Egypt is very conservative and may not appreciate certain gestures in the part of tourists while they tour along the main cities or while sightseeing. This applies equally to basic tours and in luxury tour in Egypt as well. The following guide on ground-rules on etiquettes can help you stay safe in this respect.

  • Mind your manners in public – This is basically with respect to public display of affection, holding hands, openly hugging / kissing etc. Such behaviors make locals very uncomfortable and you may also be questioned on the same.
  • Wear covered clothes – While in Egypt, ensure wearing fully covered clothes that do not show much skin. This is applicable for men and women alike. The rules may be slightly harsher for women considering that they are advised to wear clothes that cover their bust, shoulders and legs completely. Tight figure hugging clothes are also not looked upon well in this nation. Covering your head though, is optional.
  • Thank and tip – Just like in USA and other developed nations, it is necessary to be polite with the service providers, thank them and tip them as well. If you have booked luxury tour in Egypt, tips to hotel staff, drivers, waiters etc. is usually not included in the package price and has to be footed separately.
  • Avoid misdemeanors – Drunken dramas in the streets, misbehaving with locals, disrespecting culture / holy places / festivals etc can lead to consequences that are best when avoided.
Most travel and tour organizers brief tourists on how to behave while in Egypt which can come amply handy if taken with due seriousness.
