About Egypt Tours from USA

Looking for Egypt tours from USA that are actually built around how Americans travel? Every package on this page was designed for travelers flying from the United States realistic pacing after an 11-hour flight, prices in US dollars with no hidden extras, licensed Egyptologist guides fluent in English, and 24/7 on-the-ground support from our team in Cairo and Luxor. King Tut Tours has operated in Egypt for more than 15 years and is the #1-rated tour operator in Luxor on TripAdvisor, with thousands of verified five-star reviews from American guests. Choose a classic 8-day Cairo and Nile cruise, go all-in with a two-week Grand Egypt journey, or do something no big operator offers: sail the Nile aboard a private Dahabiya with just your own group on board. Every itinerary below is fully customizable, and custom trips receive a 10% discount.

Why American Travelers Choose King Tut Tours

We are a fully licensed Egyptian tour operator — not a reseller. When you book with us, the team that designs your trip is the same team that meets you at Cairo airport. Every tour includes a private, Ministry of Tourism–licensed Egyptologist guide, air-conditioned private transport, and entrance fees to every site on the itinerary. We never combine your party with strangers, never run fixed group departures, and never pad itineraries with shopping stops. That is why American travelers rank us #1 in Luxor on TripAdvisor year after year.

Egypt Visa for US Citizens

US passport holders can get an Egyptian visa two ways: a visa on arrival at Cairo airport for $25 USD (cash, paid at the bank kiosk before passport control takes about five minutes), or an e-Visa online in advance for the same price. Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date. We send every American guest a step-by-step visa guide after booking, and our airport representative meets you before customs to walk you through it.

Egypt Tours from USA FAQs

What is the Best Time to Visit Egypt from the USA

October through April is Egypt's prime season — sunny days of 70–85°F, perfect for temple touring and Nile cruising. Mapped to the American calendar:

  • Thanksgiving week (late November): Superb weather, moderate crowds. Book by August.
  • Christmas & New Year: The most in-demand window of the year. Nile cruises sell out 4–6 months ahead — reserve by July for the gala-dinner sailings.
  • Spring break (March): Warm, lively, ideal for families.
  • Memorial Day & summer: Hot in Upper Egypt (95°F+), but prices drop 15–25% and famous sites are blissfully quiet. We schedule early-morning touring and pool afternoons.
  • August 2, 2027: The total solar eclipse over Luxor — 6 minutes 23 seconds of totality, the longest until 2114. See our dedicated eclipse tours; spots are limited.
How Much Does an Egypt Trip Cost from the USA?

Our packages on this page range from about $1,499 to $13,000 per person (double occupancy), excluding international flights unless noted. As a rule of thumb: a quality 8-day Cairo + Nile cruise package runs $1,500–$2,500 per person; luxury versions with 5-star deluxe cruises and Old Cataract–class hotels run $3,500–$6,000; and a private Dahabiya sailing starts around $1,800. Everything is priced in US dollars, and the price we quote is the price you pay taxes and service charges included.

Is Egypt Safe for American Tourists?

Yes, tourism is Egypt's lifeblood, and tourist areas are heavily protected. Millions of visitors, including hundreds of thousands of Americans, travel here safely every year. Our guests are accompanied by a licensed guide and private driver throughout, we monitor conditions daily, and our 24/7 support line answers in minutes, not hours. We are happy to share recent reviews from American travelers, or connect you with past guests before you book.

What about Flights from the USA to Egypt?

EgyptAir flies nonstop from New York (JFK) and Washington (IAD) to Cairo in about 11 hours. One-stop connections through Europe (Lufthansa, Turkish, Air France, British Airways) serve every major US city, including Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Miami, Dallas, and San Francisco. Round-trip economy fares typically run $750–$1,100 in shoulder season and $1,100–$1,600 over Christmas and spring break. We can include international airfare in your package on request — just tell us your home airport when you inquire.
A practical tip from our guests: arrive in Cairo in the evening, sleep off the jet lag, and start your Pyramids tour the following morning. Every itinerary on this page is paced with that in mind.

How long is the flight from the USA to Egypt?

About 11 hours nonstop from New York (JFK) or Washington (IAD) to Cairo on EgyptAir. One-stop connections via Europe serve all other major US cities, typically 14–17 hours total.
