Egypt Group Tours for Solo Travelers

Travel solo as part of a group tour to Egypt

Why Travel Solo To Egypt?

The pyramids, the River Nile, Cairo’s buzzing street-food scene... Egypt lays claim to some of the world’s most revered treasures and you’ll experience them all while traveling solo as part of a group tour in this extraordinary country.

This is a destination imbued with history and legend, a place that still conjures images of treasure-laden tombs and the discovery of Tutankhamun. And while nowadays you’re less likely to unearth gold in an uncharted temple on your tour through Egypt, you will stumble upon treasures of other kinds every way you turn.

Imagine losing yourself in the intense sounds and smells of the labyrinthine Khan al-Khalili Bazaar in Cairo. Picture the moment you see the pyramids of Giza for the first time. See yourself drifting down the Nile on a traditional felucca sailboat and dining with locals in the Nubian village of Gharb Soheil . Or witnessing the temples of Luxor by candlelight. These are moments more valuable than gold, we think. Although gold would be nice, too.

Please see our  FAQs page about travel to Egypt during the ongoing situation in Israel and Palestine.

Top places to visit in Egypt

Located on the west bank of the Nile on the edge of the desert, Giza is the site of the world-famous Pyramids – the last remaining Wonder of the Ancient World – as well as a complex of other ancient Egyptian monuments including the iconic Sphinx.

Luxor is often called the world’s greatest open-air museum, for the scale and grandeur of its monuments that survived from ancient Thebes. Don’t miss the colonnaded temple of Karnak or the tombs of Ramses I and VI in the ancient Valley of the Kings.

Cairo is a vast, sprawling capital city with a long rich history and divine cuisine. Visit the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities or the Mosque of Muhammad Ali (Pasha) and explore the winding streets of the bustling Khan Al-Khalili bazaar.

Starting point for trips to Abu Simbel and the Temple of Ramses II, Aswan is a tranquil base where you can take lazy felucca rides to river islands, visit Nubian villages or explore the atmospheric desert Monastery of St Simeon.

Rory McIlroy returns to PGA Tour Policy Board in bid to end LIV Golf turmoil

With a merger between the two tours seemingly no closer, McIlroy could play a key role in helping to broker a deal

Rory McIlroy has made the surprise decision to rejoin the PGA Tour policy board in the effort to help steer through a deal with the Saudi Public Investment Fund after resigning his position as a player director six months ago.

McIlroy quit the role in November, citing “professional and personal commitments” , although the world No 2 later admitted to “feeling like I was just banging my head against the wall” as the Tour’s negotiations with PIF all but broke down.

And despite Tiger Woods and the other player directors staging a “positive” meeting with Yasir Al-Rumayyan – the PIF governor and chairman of LIV Golf – in the Bahamas last month, the talks seemingly remain in stalemate with no merger imminent.

McIlroy’s U-turn – which is almost certain to be ratified in the next few days – could be highly notable. Since he left the board, the Tour has signed up US private investors Strategic Sports Group which has already injected $1.5 billion into the circuit. LIV reacted to this by luring Jon Rahm with a £450 million deal and there are fears that if the Saudis are not brought into the fold that they could entice even more big names across.

SSG recognises the risk in the continuation of the Civil War and it is understood the consortium led by Liverpool FC owners Fenway Sports is not only fully behind McIlroy’s return but helped engineer it. Webb Simpson, the former US Open champion, is another who believes that a deal is vital to unify the game and has resigned from the board and requested that his place be taken by McIlroy.

The 12 members of the board need to vote unanimously for McIlroy and despite there being factions who, for whatever reasons, think that a PIF deal could and perhaps should be avoided, it verges on the inconceivable that his comeback will not be rubber-stamped.

When asked by Sky Sports why the change of mind, McIlroy’s reply was pointed. “I’d rather the men’s golf professional landscape survived this, so I’m happy to do my bit,” he said. Patrick Cantlay’s reaction to the news could be extremely interesting, regardless of his and his management’s claims that the American Ryder Cup player has no personal agenda and is simply representing the views of the PGA Tour members.

McIlroy has previously said about Cantlay that “we see the world quite differently”, and had an exchange of views with Jordan Spieth, another player director, in February after the American declared, in the wake of the SSG announcement, “I don’t think that [a deal with the PIF] is needed”. “We had a pretty frank discussion,” McIlroy revealed before stating he “would not be too happy” with Spieth if he was PIF.

McIlroy’s mission will be to abandon this mindset. Initially, he was perhaps the most vocal opponent of LIV, but since the “‘framework agreement” was agreed with PIF last summer, he has been adamant that the Saudis must be included in the new Tour make-up.

He also vouched for Al-Rumayyan last month, declaring that the breakaway league has not assisted in the reputation of the right-hand man to the Saudi Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salman. “Fundamentally he wants to do the right thing,” McIlroy said. “I have spent time with Yasir and the people that have represented him in LIV, I think, have done him a disservice .So [LIV commissioner chief executive Greg] Norman and those guys.

“I see the two entities, and I actually think there’s a really big disconnect between PIF and LIV. I think you got PIF over here and LIV are sort of over here doing their own thing. So the closer that we can get to Yasir, PIF and hopefully finalise that investment, I think that will be a really good thing.”

McIlroy is speaking to the media in New Orleans on Wednesday where he is playing in the Zurich Classic - the PGA Tour pairs tournament - alongside Shane Lowry.

On the LPGA Tour, Nelly Korda has withdrawn from this week’s this week’s JM Eagle LA Championship, saying she “feels exhausted” after winning the first female major of the season, the Chevron Championship, on Sunday. The 25-year-old had won five events in a row and in her next tournament - which is now likely to be the Cognizant Founders Cup in New Jersey in a fortnight - will be trying to break the LPGA Tour’s record for most successive victories.
