Egypt Tour Packages From Delhi

Reviewed by Thrillophilia Egypt Operations Team

Egypt tour packages from Delhi start at INR 49,000 per person for a 7-day trip and range up to INR 2,75,000 per person for a longer 15-day circuit. That's a wide spread, but it makes sense once you look at what's inside each package. A short budget-friendly Cairo-and-Nile trip and a 15-day tour covering Cairo, Aswan, Luxor and Hurghada aren't really the same holiday, so it helps to know what you're comparing before you pick one.

Every Egypt holiday package from Thrillophilia comes with verified hotel stays, airport transfers, guided sightseeing at major monuments, selected meals, and round-the-clock support from our team. Depending on the itinerary you choose, you may also get domestic flights between Egyptian cities, Nile cruise stays, hot air balloon experiences, and visa guidance, so most of the planning is already done before you land in Cairo.

Delhi is one of the better-connected Indian cities for Egypt travel, with EgyptAir running direct flights on Indira Gandhi International Airport's Terminal 3 a few days a week, alongside strong one-stop connectivity through Dubai, Doha, Abu Dhabi and Istanbul. With an average customer rating of 4.6 out of 5 across 20+ verified departures, Thrillophilia's Egypt tours are built around a simple idea: fewer rushed transfers, and more time actually standing in front of the pyramids.

Prices shown are indicative starting prices per person on double sharing and can change with season, hotel category, and flight inclusion. For the full list of departures, check Egypt tour packages from Delhi.

How to Reach Egypt From Delhi

Delhi has better Egypt connectivity than most Indian cities, since EgyptAir operates a non-stop service to Cairo. Even so, one-stop routes via the Gulf remain the most frequent and often the cheapest option, so it's worth comparing both before booking.

Cairo International Airport is the entry point for almost every package. From there, domestic EgyptAir flights connect you to Luxor (around 1.5 hours) and Aswan (around 1.5 hours) quickly if your package includes Upper Egypt coverage. Try booking a single-ticket itinerary through your travel agent rather than piecing together separate flights, since tight layovers on a self-booked route can turn an exciting trip into a tiring one before it even begins.

Egypt Visa for Indian Travellers (Updated July 2026)

Indian passport holders must apply for Egypt's official e-visa online before departure; Indians are not eligible for the visa-on-arrival facility that some other nationalities can use at the airport, so applying in advance is not optional.

• Single-entry tourist e-visa: USD 25, approximately INR 2,100 to 2,300
• Multiple-entry tourist e-visa: USD 60, approximately INR 5,000 to 5,500
• Processing time: Usually 5 to 7 working days; apply at least 2 to 3 weeks before travel
• Documents required: Passport valid for at least 6 months, a recent photograph, confirmed hotel booking, return flight details, and a printed copy of the approved e-visa
• Note: Egypt raised its airport visa-on-arrival fee to USD 30 in March 2026, but this change applies only to nationalities eligible for visa-on-arrival and does not affect Indian travellers, who continue to pay the same e-visa fee

Visa fees and rules can shift, so it's worth checking the official Egypt e-visa portal again closer to your travel date, and once more just before departure.

Best Time to Visit Egypt From Delhi

October to February remains the strongest window for standing outdoors at Giza or Karnak without the heat cutting your visit short. If your dates only allow a summer trip, plan monument visits for the early morning and keep afternoons for the pool, a Nile cruise deck, or an air-conditioned museum.

Best Places to Visit in Egypt

• Cairo: Egypt's bustling capital is where most itineraries begin. You can marvel at the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Sphinx, spend a morning inside the Egyptian Museum, which holds Tutankhamun's treasures, and lose an evening in the lively lanes of the Khan el-Khalili bazaar.
• Luxor: Often called the world's greatest open-air museum, Luxor sits on the east bank of the Nile. The Karnak Temple complex alone covers over 100 hectares, and a short trip across the river takes you to the Valley of the Kings and the Colossi of Memnon.
• Aswan: A quieter, slower town on the Nile known for the Philae Temple and calm riverside pace. It's also the gateway for excursions to the Abu Simbel temples and Nubian villages, and a favourite stop for couples and premium travellers.
• Alexandria: A coastal city on the Mediterranean that blends ancient history with modern allure. Highlights include the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the Catacombs of Kom el-Shoqafa, and a seafront promenade lined with cafés.
• Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh: Egypt's Red Sea coast, added to itineraries that want a beach break alongside the heritage sites, with over 1,000 documented marine species making the diving and snorkelling among the best in the world.

Things to Do on an Egypt Tour From Delhi

• Explore the Pyramids of Giza: Visit the only surviving structure from the original Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, then take an optional camel ride across the desert sands for a closer look at the Great Pyramid and the smaller tombs nearby.
• Cruise the Nile: Many mid-range and premium itineraries include a felucca ride or a multi-day Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan, with stops at Kom Ombo and Edfu temples along the way.
• Visit the Egyptian Museum: Spend a few hours among more than 120,000 artefacts, including Tutankhamun's golden mask, in Cairo's most-visited museum.
• Take a sunrise hot air balloon ride over Luxor: A premium add-on that gives you an aerial view of the Valley of the Kings and the Nile as the sun comes up.
• Walk through Khan el-Khalili: Cairo's centuries-old bazaar is one of the best places to shop for spices, textiles and handmade crafts, and haggling is expected — start at 40 to 50 percent of the first quoted price.

Food Guide for Indian Travellers Visiting Egypt

Egypt is fairly comfortable for Indian travellers when it comes to food, especially in major tourist cities like Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, and Hurghada. Along with authentic Egyptian cuisine, you'll also find Indian restaurants and international dining options in most tourist areas.

• Vegetarian travellers can enjoy local dishes such as Koshari (rice, lentils, pasta and tomato sauce), Falafel (Ta'ameya), Foul Medames (stewed fava beans), hummus, grilled vegetables, and fresh pita bread.
• Non-vegetarian travellers should try Egyptian favourites like Kofta, Shawarma, grilled chicken, kebabs, seafood along the Red Sea coast, and slow-cooked lamb dishes.
• Indian food is readily available in Cairo, Giza, and Hurghada, with several restaurants serving North Indian, South Indian, and vegetarian meals.
• Drink bottled water instead of tap water, and choose freshly cooked food from hygienic restaurants, especially if you're trying local street food.
• If you have dietary restrictions or allergies, inform your guide or hotel in advance so suitable meal arrangements can be made during your trip.

Common Mistakes Delhi Travellers Make While Booking Egypt Tours

• Booking Only Based on Price: Choosing the cheapest Egypt tour package without comparing hotels, sightseeing, internal transfers, and cruise inclusions can lead to additional expenses and a less enjoyable experience. Focus on overall value rather than just the lowest cost.
• Delaying Flight and Package Bookings: Waiting until the last minute to book flights from Delhi often results in higher airfares and limited package availability, especially during school holidays, Diwali, Christmas, and New Year.
• Not Checking Visa Requirements: Many travellers book their trip before understanding Egypt's visa process. Verify the latest visa requirements and processing time to avoid delays or last-minute issues.
• Choosing an Overpacked Itinerary: Trying to cover Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Alexandria, and the Red Sea in a few days leaves little time to explore. A well-paced itinerary offers a much better travel experience.
• Ignoring What's Included in the Package: Always check whether entry tickets, airport transfers, domestic flights or trains, meals, guided tours, and Nile cruises are included to avoid unexpected costs during your trip.
