Yolculuk
Two days in Cairo, two in the Fayoum desert, an overnight drive to the coast, then a yacht day diving the Red Sea and Orange Bay Island.
Wild Egypt is Grand Egypt without Luxor: two days in Old and Ancient Cairo, two in Fayoum (pottery, dune buggies, a desert night, the Valley of the Whales), then an overnight drive to Hurghada for a day on the Red Sea before the drive back to Cairo.
Gold is the full experience: breakfast at 6901 and at Khufu’s, a zipline at the Cave Church, the inside of Menkaure’s pyramid, dinner over fire at Magic Lake and horse riding on the coast. Silver is the same core journey, with lighter costs on those extras.

Sorular ve yanıtlar
What is the difference between Silver and Gold?
Gold is the full Egyphoria experience. Silver is the same core journey — the same days, the same sites, the same private guide and car — with lighter costs in a few places: simpler breakfasts and dinners, and fewer extras.
Are hotels included?
Your Fayoum night at the Desert Glamp, our partner camp by the lake, is included (in summer it moves to Tunis Village). Hotels in Cairo are not, so you can stay where you like — or ask us to arrange one of our own apartments or partner hotels.
