Luxury Tour of Northern Egypt

That first glimpse of the pyramids never fails to impress, no matter how many times you’ve seen them in photos. In Egypt, you don’t experience history behind glass, but right in the heart of the setting where civilizations emerged thousands of years ago. You’ll stroll among monuments that have stood the test of time, while Cairo’s vibrant energy never ceases to surprise you. From atmospheric bazaars and ancient mosques to trendy lunch spots and the spectacular Grand Egyptian Museum: every day, the city reveals a new side of itself.

Then the pace changes. Along the Mediterranean Sea lies Alexandria, once the intellectual heart of the ancient world. Wide boulevards, elegant palaces, and the fresh sea breeze give this city a character all its own.

To round off the trip, the Egyptian Riviera awaits. In Marassi, you’ll enjoy long days at the beach, stylish beach clubs, and a glass of wine with a view of the sea. This trip offers a surprising combination of culture, gastronomy, the coast, and luxury—all accompanied by the refined service of Pegase Tailored.

Itinerary

Your first few days will be entirely devoted to Egyptian civilization. You’ll visit the pyramids of Giza, Saqqara, and the Grand Egyptian Museum, where thousands of archaeological treasures have found a new home. The Citadel, the Egyptian Museum, and the historic Coptic quarter will also bring you closer to the story of Cairo. In between, you’ll sample contemporary cuisine during lunches at carefully selected locations and stroll through the lively alleys of Khan El Khalili.
After Cairo, a comfortable private transfer will take you to Alexandria. The city has a completely different atmosphere: wide corniches, Mediterranean charm, and a rich Greco-Roman past. Among other sights, you’ll explore Pompey’s Pillar, the impressive catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, the iconic Bibliotheca Alexandrina, and the Citadel of Qaitbay. The elegant boulevard and the sea provide a constant backdrop.
The last few days are all about relaxation. Along the exclusive Marassi coast, expansive white-sand beaches, stylish beach clubs, and excellent restaurants follow one after another. You decide how to spend your days: relaxing by the pool, strolling along the coast, or enjoying the resort’s amenities. Afterward, you’ll return comfortably to Cairo for your return flight.
