Egypt Day Tours from Australia

Short on time but keen to see Egypt's icons? Private day tours let you build your own trip, one day at a time — and getting here from Australia is simple. One-stop flights from Sydney, Melbourne and Perth connect Australia to Cairo via the Gulf or Singapore. Australian passport holders can get an Egypt e-visa online, or a visa on arrival. Egypt is seven to nine hours behind eastern Australia, so allow a day to settle in.

From the Pyramids of Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum to the temples and royal tombs of Luxor and Aswan, and snorkelling or desert safaris on the Red Sea, each tour is private, fully guided in English, and includes hotel or port pick-up — so you can mix and match exactly the days you want.
