Good To Know

Pricing Notice The prices displayed on this website are provided as a guideline only and should not be considered final quotations. The final trip price may vary depending on several factors, including your travel dates and season, group size, hotel and room category, meal plan, availability, and any additional services or special requests. Please contact Cometra Travel for a personalized quotation based on your specific travel requirements. All prices are subject to final confirmation. A booking is considered confirmed only after a written quotation has been accepted and the required deposit has been received.

Travel Tips

Walking & Accessibility

Some sites involve walking on uneven terrain, sandy paths, rocky surfaces, or stairs. If you normally use a walking cane or other mobility aid, we recommend bringing it with you for added comfort.

Comfort During Visits

During guided visits, there may be times when you will stand while listening to your guide, wait for transportation, or queue at attractions. If standing for extended periods is uncomfortable, we recommend bringing a lightweight foldable chair or informing Cometra in advance so we can assist where possible. We'd also suggest wearing comfortable walking shoes, packing a sun hat, and dressing for the day's activities — especially when visiting sandy or desert areas.

Stay Hydrated

As we spend much of the day exploring, we encourage you to bring a reusable water bottle. Refill stations are available in many locations, helping you stay hydrated while supporting sustainable travel.

Trip Overview

Two days of pyramids, four days of nothing but the beach — a holiday built for families who want both.

A holiday built for families who want both sightseeing and real downtime: two days in Cairo for the Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum, followed by four days at a Red Sea resort in Hurghada, with beach time, a family-friendly reef snorkelling trip, and a glass-bottom boat tour that keeps the whole family entertained without another full day of temples.

Two days is exactly enough Cairo before small legs start asking for the beach — this trip knows that, and plans around it.

✦

Trip Highlights

Five reasons this trip balances sightseeing with real rest.

  • Pyramids of Giza, Cairo: Egypt's essential monument, visited before the beach portion of the trip begins.
  • Egyptian Museum, Cairo: A family-paced visit to the treasures of ancient Egypt.
  • Red Sea Resort Stay, Hurghada: Four days at a beachfront resort with pools, activities, and real relaxation.
  • Family-Friendly Reef Snorkelling: A gentle snorkelling excursion to shallow, calm reefs suited to young swimmers.
  • Glass-Bottom Boat Tour: A dry alternative to snorkelling, ideal for younger children or non-swimmers.

Day by Day

Trip Route Map

The trip begins in Cairo, then flies to Hurghada on the Red Sea coast for the remainder of the stay.

Extensions

Cairo and the Red Sea are only two pieces of what Egypt has for a family with more time to spend.

Upon request, pre- and post-trip extensions are available to tailor your journey further. Extensions vary based on when and where you start your trip, and when and where you end it.

Before You Depart

Extend your family's time in Cairo before flying to Hurghada with extra time at the Pyramids, the Egyptian Museum, or a Nile felucca sail. Let us know your interests and we will tailor the perfect pre-trip experience for you.

Extend Your Trip

Extra nights in Hurghada, or an onward extension to Luxor and Aswan, can be arranged on request. Contact our team and we will take care of the rest.

Pricing for extensions varies by season, hotel category, and length of stay. Please contact our team at info@cometra.net to discuss possible pre- or post-trip extensions and receive full costing details.

Optional Excursions

A few extra experiences worth adding, if the family has the appetite for them.

This is a standard section included across all Cometra Travel trip plans, featuring excursions available at an additional cost. Your final itinerary may already include one or more of these experiences, depending on the services and arrangements confirmed in your final agreement with Cometra Travel. Any excursion included in your confirmed itinerary will therefore be considered part of your trip, even if it appears in this section.

Prices shown are indicative only and may vary depending on several factors, including the number of participants, season, and the style or level of service selected. For the most accurate pricing and availability, please contact Cometra Travel.

Each excursion includes the associated arrangements and expenses, including private transportation, an expert guide, entrance fees, gratuities, and applicable taxes, unless otherwise specified.

Terms, Payment & Cancellation

Good to KnowPayment, deposit, and cancellation policies may vary significantly from one trip to another depending on the travel season, the type of itinerary, and the services included. Journeys that feature private or exclusive arrangements—such as chartered boats, domestic or international flights, special events, private venue access, or exclusive openings—are subject to stricter payment and cancellation terms due to the nature of these services and the policies imposed by third-party suppliers and service providers. Guests are encouraged to review the specific terms and conditions applicable to their chosen itinerary before confirming their booking.

Payment Policy

The payment schedule below is a general guideline and may vary based on the season, number of travelers, booking date, and requested services. We will always work with you to provide the most suitable payment terms and ensure your journey is confirmed with confidence.

We understand that canceling a trip is never a pleasant decision and is often due to unexpected circumstances beyond your control. Our cancellation policy is governed by the terms and conditions of our third-party suppliers, including hotels, airlines, Nile cruises, and other service providers.
