Tour Details

Egypt Family Tour Cairo Alexandria Sinai

This Cairo Alexandria Sinai Family Tour packages combines three very different sides of Egypt: the pyramids and museums of Cairo, the Mediterranean coastline of Alexandria, and the spiritual landscape of Sinai. It's built for families who want history, culture, and a bit of adventure in one trip, making it a well-rounded Egypt family tour without the pace ever feeling rushed.

In Cairo, you'll visit the Giza Pyramids and the Great Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum's collection of Tutankhamun's treasures, and the historic churches of Coptic Cairo. A day trip through Wadi El Natrun's ancient monasteries leads you toward Alexandria, where the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa and the Citadel of Qaitbay sit right on the Mediterranean coast.

The final stretch takes your family into Sinai, with a night near St. Catherine's Monastery and the option to climb Mount Sinai for sunrise before heading back to Cairo. Throughout this 8 Day Egypt Family Vacation Cairo Alexandria Sinai, a private Egyptologist guide and an air-conditioned vehicle travel with your family only, so the schedule can adjust to your children's pace.

Notes

Domestic transfer distances add up on this itinerary: Alexandria to Cairo on Day 5 and Cairo to Sinai on Day 6 are both several hours of driving, so the two travel-heavy days sit back to back. Families traveling with very young children may want an extra buffer night in Alexandria or St. Catherine rather than doing both transfers as written; flag this to us in advance if you'd like the pacing adjusted.

The Mount Sinai ascent on Day 7 is best done overnight or before dawn to reach the summit for sunrise, meaning a very early start and cold waiting time at the top even in summer. Warm layers, a flashlight, and sturdy walking shoes are essential; a camel can cover part of the climb, but the final stretch of roughly 750 steps to the summit is on foot only.

Modest dress is required at St. Catherine's Monastery and recommended at the Coptic Cairo churches and the Monastery of St. Mark in Alexandria: shoulders and knees covered for all family members.

This is a private tour: your guide, driver, and vehicle stay with your family only, so the schedule can be reordered or slowed down for children without affecting other travelers. Hotel categories and the number of nights in each city can be adjusted before booking on request.

Prices and availability shift during peak periods (Christmas, New Year, and Easter), as noted in the Exclusions; confirm current rates for these dates before quoting a family.
