Smaller groups for Egypt's busiest season

Winter is Egypt's peak travel season, when cooler weather draws visitors to the pyramids, the Nile and the temples of Upper Egypt. Cleopatra Travel's winter group trips to Egypt keep numbers small so travellers spend more time with their guide and less time waiting.

"Travellers tell us they want the classic sites without the crowds of a large coach tour," said a Cleopatra Travel spokesperson. "Keeping our winter groups to 12 to 16 people lets our Egyptologists give everyone proper attention, and it lets us move quickly between sites when the season is at its busiest."

The company has run inbound tours in Egypt since 1993 and operates offices in destinations including Cairo, Sharm El Sheikh and Luxor, alongside its head office in Hurghada. Local teams in each city manage hotel check-ins, site entry and transfers, so groups move from one destination to the next without delay.

What the departures include

Departures draw on Cleopatra Travel's established itineraries, including Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza, the Grand Egyptian Museum, Luxor, and Nile cruises between Luxor and Aswan, with options to add Alexandria or the Fayoum Oasis. Each group is led by a licensed Egyptologist guide and travels in modern, insured, GPS-tracked vehicles, with a 24-hour emergency contact throughout the trip.

Individual travellers can book directly, and international tour operators can reserve places or request private group departures through Cleopatra Travel's B2B team. Full details are available on the Cleopatra Travel website alongside its other trip to Egypt packages.

Itineraries can be extended before or after the group dates with private days, Red Sea stays or Nile cruise upgrades. Tour operators can also request white-label departures run to their own brand standards..
