Things to Do in Egypt: Top Attractions, Tickets & Opening Hours
Opening hours, entry tickets, time needed, the best hour of the day and what our tours do there — written once by the guides who visit daily and reused by every itinerary.
Pick the experiences, we build the days around them
Every itinerary on this site is assembled from these entities, so the facts are identical wherever you read them. Choose by city or by type, then either book a day tour that includes it or tell a planner which ones matter to you.

Why we document experiences separately from tours
An itinerary tells you the order of a day; an experience page tells you what the place is actually like to visit — how many steps into the tomb, which ticket covers what, whether 07:00 or 15:00 is the right hour, and how long a guide needs to do it justice. Writing that once, and reusing it in every tour, keeps the facts identical and lets us update a price or an opening time in one place.
Use these pages to decide which experiences are non-negotiable for you. A day tour that includes them can be booked instantly; for a longer route, tell the planner your list and the itinerary is built around it.
