Confirmation note: The page contains several inconsistencies. General information mentions 5-star hotels, while the detailed itinerary and final inclusion list use 4-star hotels. The overview mentions the Grand Egyptian Museum, Saqqara and Philae Temple, but the daily itinerary does not schedule these visits. Day 5 also incorrectly says the traveler is transferred from Cairo Airport to fly to Aswan, although Day 4 already ends with an overnight stay in Aswan. This script follows the logical day-by-day route: Cairo–Luxor by air, Luxor–Aswan by road through Edfu and Kom Ombo, Abu Simbel from Aswan, then Aswan–Cairo by air.
