Budget Tour FAQs

Everything you need to know about affordable Egypt travel

How much does a budget Egypt tour cost from the UK?

Budget Egypt tours from the UK start from just £299 per person for 4 days. A week-long tour including Cairo, Luxor, and a Nile cruise typically costs £599-£899pp. Prices include accommodation, guided tours, and most meals. International flights are not included but can be found from £200-400 return.

What's included in a cheap Egypt holiday package?

Our budget packages include: licensed Egyptologist guide, 3-4 star hotel accommodation with breakfast, Nile cruise with full board, all entrance fees to sites, private transfers, domestic flights where applicable, and 24/7 support. Only tips and personal expenses are extra.

Are budget Egypt tours safe?

Absolutely! Egypt welcomed over 14 million tourists in 2024. Our budget tours include professional guides, vetted hotels, and reliable transport. We follow UK Foreign Office guidelines and maintain high safety standards regardless of price. Budget doesn't mean cutting corners on safety.

When is the cheapest time to visit Egypt?

The cheapest time to visit Egypt is during the shoulder seasons: April-May and September-October. Summer (June-August) also offers lower prices, though temperatures are higher. Winter (December-February) is peak season with higher prices. We can help you find the best time for your budget.

Can I do Egypt on a backpacker budget?

Yes! Egypt is very affordable for backpackers. Local meals cost £2-5, budget hotels £15-30 per night, and site entrance fees £5-15. Our budget tours offer great value with included guides and transport that's hard to arrange independently cheaper. The Backpacker Special package from £449 is designed for solo and budget travellers.

What's the difference between budget and luxury Egypt tours?

Budget tours use 3-4 star hotels vs 5-star, standard Nile cruises vs luxury vessels, and may include small group options. However, you see the same incredible sites with qualified Egyptologist guides — just at a fraction of the price. The main difference is accommodation standard, not the experience.

Are meals included in budget Egypt tours?

Most budget tours include daily breakfast at hotels and full board on Nile cruises. Some tours include additional meals. Egypt has excellent cheap local food — try koshari (£1), falafel sandwiches (£1-2), and shawarma (£2-3). We'll recommend the best affordable local restaurants.

Do I need to tip on budget Egypt tours?

Tipping (baksheesh) is customary in Egypt. Budget around £30-50 for a week's trip for guides, drivers, and hotel staff. Tips are not mandatory but appreciated. We provide detailed tipping guidelines with your booking so there are no surprises.
