Overview

Two ancient worlds, one trip: this 10 day Israel and Egypt tour pairs the holy sites of Jerusalem and the Galilee with the pyramids of Giza and the bazaars of Cairo. You start at Ben Gurion Airport, tour Israel from a Tel Aviv base, then fly south and continue to Cairo. A licensed guide, transportation, entrance fees, hotels with breakfast and the internal flight are all part of the package.

Day 1 is your arrival in Tel Aviv. Day 2 covers Jerusalem old and new, day 3 the highlights of the Galilee and day 4 the desert fortress of Masada. Day 5 is free, and day 6 visits Caesarea, Megiddo, Haifa and Acre. On day 7 you fly to Ramon Airport near Eilat and transfer to Cairo. Day 8 brings the Egyptian Museum, the pyramids and the Sphinx, day 9 Saqqara and the Khan el-Khalili bazaar, and day 10 is your transfer to Cairo airport.

This Israel and Egypt tour suits travelers who want to compare two great cultures in one journey, from Bible history to the age of the pharaohs. Ten days give each country real time, with a free day in the middle so you can rest or explore Tel Aviv on your own. It works well for couples, friends and first-time visitors to the region who would rather leave the planning to someone else.

A driver meets you at Ben Gurion Airport on day 1, and touring days start with pickup from your Tel Aviv hotel. The tour ends with a transfer to Cairo airport. You choose 3-star, 4-star or 5-star hotels, priced per person in a double room for 2 or more travelers, or a single room if you travel solo, and the booking form shows the exact price for your hotel level and number of travelers. The Israel and Egypt tour departs daily, subject to availability, and is non-refundable because hotels and the flight are pre-paid. Prefer a shorter trip?
