Platinum Egypt Series I: A Private Luxury Tour with Exclusive Nile Cruise
Platinum Egypt Series I: A Private Journey Through Egypt’s Timeless Wonders
When travelers dream of Egypt, they imagine standing before the Great Pyramids, sailing the Nile at sunset, and walking through temples carved thousands of years ago. The Platinum Egypt Series I tour transforms those dreams into reality—yet with a level of privacy, exclusivity, and luxury that sets it apart from standard group tours. This 15‑day journey is designed for discerning travelers who value personalized sightseeing, private guides, and world‑class accommodations, including a super deluxe Nile cruise that redefines river travel.
Private Sightseeing: Egypt at Your Own Pace
One of the most compelling features of this tour is that all sightseeing is private. Instead of being herded through Egypt’s treasures in a large group, you’ll explore with your own dedicated Egyptologist guide and private driver. This means:
Flexibility: Spend more time at the sites that fascinate you most, whether that’s the treasures of King Tut at the Egyptian Museum or the intricate hieroglyphs inside the Valley of the Kings.
Personalized storytelling: Your guide tailors the narrative to your interests, whether you’re captivated by ancient engineering, religious symbolism, or the daily lives of pharaohs.
Comfort and ease: With private transfers, there’s no waiting for others. You move seamlessly from one wonder to the next.
This level of exclusivity ensures that your journey through Egypt is not just a tour—it’s a deeply personal experience.
Sightseeing Highlights: A Curated Collection of Egypt’s Greatest Treasures
The Platinum Egypt Series I itinerary is a masterclass in cultural immersion, carefully curated to showcase Egypt’s most iconic sites alongside hidden gems.
Cairo & Giza: Begin with the Marriott Mena House, a historic palace hotel with views of the pyramids. Explore Memphis, Sakkara, and the Giza Plateau, where the Great Pyramid of Khufu still dominates the skyline. A private evening at the Sound and Light Show adds drama to the experience.
Abu Simbel: Fly south to marvel at the colossal temples of Ramesses II and Queen Nefertari, masterpieces rescued from the rising waters of Lake Nasser.
Luxor & Thebes: Walk through the Valley of the Kings, where 64 pharaohs were laid to rest, and admire the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, a monument to one of history’s most powerful women. The Karnak Temple Complex, built over 1,500 years, is a staggering testament to devotion and power.
Alexandria: Discover Egypt’s Mediterranean jewel with its Greco‑Roman heritage, catacombs, and Pompey’s Pillar.
Modern Egypt: Visit the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the world’s largest archaeological museum, where King Tut’s treasures are displayed in their entirety for the first time.
Each stop is carefully chosen to balance ancient wonders with cultural depth, ensuring that travelers experience both the grandeur and the intimacy of Egypt’s story.
The Nile Cruise: A Floating Palace
No Egyptian journey is complete without sailing the Nile, and this tour elevates the experience with a five‑day super deluxe cruise aboard the M/S Oberoi Philae. Unlike standard riverboats, the Oberoi Philae offers:
All‑suite accommodations: Every cabin is a spacious junior suite with panoramic windows, ensuring uninterrupted views of the Nile.
Fine dining: Gourmet meals blend international cuisine with Egyptian flavors, served in elegant surroundings.
Intimate atmosphere: With fewer cabins than most cruise ships, the Oberoi Philae guarantees a serene and private environment.
Onboard luxury: From a spa and pool deck to attentive service, the cruise feels more like a boutique hotel than a boat.
As you sail from Aswan to Luxor, the Nile itself becomes part of the sightseeing. Temples rise from the riverbanks, villages pass quietly by, and sunsets paint the water gold. It’s a journey that combines comfort, culture, and romance in equal measure.

Marriott Mena House, Cairo – A palace hotel with pyramid views.
Winter Palace, Luxor – A historic property that has hosted royalty and dignitaries.
