Egypt tours from Ankara are package itineraries designed for travellers departing from Central Anatolia. The Ankara departures currently available are listed below, along with their durations and starting prices per person.
Published tours departing from Ankara start at around 760 euros per person; the exact price varies depending on the departure date and hotel concept. The price includes round-trip airfare, airport taxes, All Inclusive accommodation in Sharm El Sheikh, a hotel in Cairo with breakfast, transfers, a Turkish-speaking guide and travel health insurance.
Departure is from Ankara Esenboğa Airport. Flight times vary depending on the tour date and are shown on the tour page once you select your date. Esenboğa can be reached from the city centre by airport buses; for early departures, check the time of the first service.
The program combines a beach holiday in Sharm El Sheikh with a visit to Cairo and the pyramids. In Sharm El Sheikh, enjoy an All Inclusive hotel stay and a boat trip; in Cairo, visit the city’s classic highlights, especially the Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx. The day-by-day itinerary is listed on the tour page.
Egypt requires a visa for Turkish citizens. Visitors staying only in the Sinai Peninsula for no more than 15 days receive a free “Sinai Only” stamp at the airport; as Cairo is included in the program, a full tourist visa is required. Passports must be valid for at least 6 months from the return date.
October to April is the most comfortable period. The Red Sea is suitable for swimming year-round, while sightseeing in Cairo can be tiring in summer because of the heat. Autumn and spring offer the best balance for both beach time and sightseeing.
Both are on the Red Sea coast, but they are different. Sharm El Sheikh is on the Sinai Peninsula; its reefs are closer to shore, its dive sites (Ras Mohammed, Tiran) are better known, and visa requirements are more straightforward if you stay only in Sinai. Hurghada is on the mainland, closer to Luxor by road, and popular for wind sports. Cairo and the pyramids can be added to itineraries from either destination; a full tourist visa is required when traveling from Sharm.
Departure dates for tours from Ankara are less frequent than for tours from Istanbul; availability fills up quickly during school holidays and public holiday periods. The number of places available and the price for each date are shown separately in the tour calendar. Once you’ve settled on a date, booking early gives you an advantage in both price and availability.
Travel health insurance is included in the package; coverage details are specified in the policy. Tap water is not safe to drink, so bottled water is recommended.
