Beyond Cairo
Private day trips from Cairo to Alexandria, the White Desert and the Red Sea at Ain Sokhna — with a local guide, hotel pickup and a pace that suits you.
Within a few hours of Cairo you can stand on the Alexandria Corniche, swim in the Red Sea at Ain Sokhna or sleep under the stars in the White Desert. We plan each trip privately, with early pickups, comfortable transport and time built in for lunch and photos, so a long drive still feels like a relaxed day out.

Egypt’s second city, founded by Alexander the Great: the Citadel of Qaitbay, the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, the modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina and fresh seafood by the sea.
