Our story

Born on the banks of the Nile

Egypt Holiday Makers began with a simple belief: that the best way to see Egypt is with the people who call it home. We're a local, licensed tour operator based in Luxor and Cairo — not a faraway booking site, but a team of Egyptologists, drivers and trip planners who live and breathe this country.

Over the years we've guided thousands of travellers from more than 30 countries — through the temples of Upper Egypt, along the Nile by cruise and dahabiya, across the Giza plateau, and out to the reefs of the Red Sea. Every trip is built by hand, tailored to you, and backed by a real person you can reach on WhatsApp any time.

We don't do crowds-on-a-coach tourism. We do private, flexible, honest travel — the kind we'd want for our own families.
