Engage with Egypt’s Rich History

Embarking on one of the many custom vacation packages to Egypt takes you deep into the world’s most illustrious historical treasures. Pyramids rise majestically from the desert sands, echoing enigmatic tales from a bygone era. A journey to the Great Pyramid of Giza and the enigmatic Sphinx is a spellbinding experience, drawing you into the heart of Egyptian antiquity.

Cruise the Legendary Nile

No custom trip to Egypt is complete without witnessing the life-giving waters of the Nile River. A cruise along this fabled river not only offers a unique perspective of Egypt’s eternal cities but also unfolds the lush, rural landscapes that have thrived along its banks for millennia. These landscapes offer perfect opportunities for those looking for tranquility, cultural interaction, or adventures that connect you with the locals.

Modern Adventures Await

The vibrant streets of Cairo keep the past alive with bustling bazaars and aromatic aromas drifting through the city's air. Delve into the labyrinthine corridors of Khan El Khalili, an iconic souk where time seems to stand still amidst vibrant textiles, exquisite silverware, and the intoxicating scent of spices. Whether you are negotiating with friendly vendors or sipping mint tea in a traditional café, each moment here feels like a journey back in time.

Moreover, the burgeoning contemporary art scene in modern Cairo and Alexandria stands as a testament to Egypt’s evolving urban landscapes. With art galleries and public spaces brimming with creativity, these cities extend an invitation to engage with Egypt's present-day cultural pulse.

Culinary Explorations

Food lovers embarking on trips to Egypt can indulge in a feast of flavours that spans the centuries. Traditional dishes like koshari and molokhia provide hearty introductions to Egyptian cuisine, while street foods such as falafel and shawarma delight the senses with their rich tastes and textures. Culinary tours are increasingly popular additions to custom vacation packages, allowing gastronomes to savor Egypt’s culinary delights intimately.

Toward the Desert's Horizon

For those seeking adventure, the golden sands of the Sahara beckon with promises of thrilling expeditions. Explore the breathtaking beauty of the Black and White Deserts, where dramatic landscapes of volcanic formations and pristine sand dunes create striking contrasts against azure skies. Desert safaris offer exhilarating rides across dunes and quiet nights beneath stars that shine like diamonds in the clear night sky.

Plan Your Custom Journey

Designing custom holiday trips to Egypt allows travellers to craft a personal narrative that unfolds with each sight and sound. Whether your interest lies in discovering historical wonders, embracing local cultures, or indulging in modern luxuries, Egypt offers a canvas as vast as your imagination.

Set against the backdrop of majestic landscapes and timeless history, your customized journey through Egypt promises to not only enlighten but also inspire. Let the magic of Egypt awaken your wanderlust and beckon you towards a journey of discovery.

Be prepared for a modest society. Both men and women generally cover their shoulders and knees, and visitors should do the same out of respect.

I have worked with Goway several times in the past two years and every single trip has been unforgettable. Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland. Maria is so wonderful and easy to talk to, but what really stands out is her ability to get to know her clients so she can plan trips that perfectly align with our interests and desires. I cannot recommend her strongly enough! Her expertise, hard-work, and dedication towards each trip has given myself, my family, and friends memories to last a lifetime! Kayla Covello

I have been booking with GoWay for more than 2 years and feel so fortunate to have the best Travel Advisor, Maria Spitman, making our vacations unforgettable. I can’t say enough about Maria… she is personable, efficient, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable about her specialty destinations. We have booked many trips with her, including Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Iceland, and our most recent trip in Greece. Maria has not only curated nuanced itineraries, but has done so combining her vast knowledge of each region with our interests and needs being met perfectly. With that, it is evident that Maria learns about her clients to create vacation packages that far exceed expectations. I won’t book with anyone else! GoWay has a gem that is irreplaceable! I highly recommend seeking Maria out for all your destination needs. Darleen

Lori Mezzomo and the team at Goway Travel are fantastic! Lori helped plan a 3-week Australia trip for our family of 5. Our teenage boys enjoyed exploring Sydney, Uluru, Cairns and the Gold Coast. Highlights included a Sydney Harbour Bridge walk, sunrise hike around Uluru, snorkeling with turtles on the Great Barrier Reef, and surfing on the gold coast. Lori did a fantastic job of creating an itinerary that was engaging for our teenage boys and relaxing for the parents... not an easy task! We miss Australia and would gladly book again with Lori Mezzomo and Goway Travel.Blair

Michael at Goway Travel was great to work with. We were planning a pre-trip with him prior to a group tour. He worked with us to hit the special places we wanted to visit and things we wanted to do. The accommodations arranged exceeded our expectations. Local guides were all amazing. This was the third trip we booked through Goway, and we will definitely book with them again in the future David Picka
