Privacy is the starting point of every Traviaz family package, as the family gets a program designed for them alone. The private air-conditioned vehicle accompanies you throughout the tour, while a licensed guide takes charge of turning pharaonic history into stories that capture children's attention. Rather than imposing a fixed pace, the program allows the day to be organized according to the family's comfort and needs. The four options start from $420 and range from three days in Cairo to ten days bringing together the Nile, Luxor, Aswan, and Hurghada.
Rarely do beaches, entertainment, and landmarks whose roots extend thousands of years back come together in a single family destination the way they do in Egypt.
In front of the Giza Pyramids, which date back approximately 4,500 years, the child finds himself close to a history he knew only from books. The Nile cruise adds a completely different experience, as the journey itself becomes part of the adventure between cities.
With the guide's storytelling approach, the information about the pharaohs no longer stays as an explanation the children simply hear, but becomes a subject that drives them to ask questions and participate.
In this way, knowledge, fun, and relaxation come together inside a single program without the trip taking the shape of a traditional history lesson.
Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, and Hurghada receive families among Egypt's most important tourist destinations, with tourist police present at the main sites. Traviaz packages bring together a number of comfort elements:
The family does not need to match the pace of another group or wait for a shared bus, because the program is private from the start. Should an urgent need arise, the Traviaz team remains available throughout the trip to help.
One of the most tiring aspects of family travel is the frequency of changing accommodation, and this is where a Nile cruise eliminates a large part of that problem.
The hotel, meals, and transport between cities all come together in one place, while children move more freely during sailing hours.
Reaching many sites happens directly from the ship's docks, so the family does not need an additional long transfer at every stop. The most prominent benefits the cruise experience offers families include:
What happens if the children need an extra hour of rest? In a private trip the pace of the day can be adjusted to suit the family rather than sticking to a full group's schedule.
Even an afternoon pool session can be built into the day's arrangement when the plan allows it. Meal times are not always forced to follow a fixed schedule, but can be handled with greater flexibility.
There is no shared bus waiting for a set departure time, and no other group whose pace the family must match. The result is a program that moves around the family's needs rather than the other way around.
The purpose of a specialist guide is not to deliver a long historical lecture to the children, but to make them part of the story.
The right question at the right moment can turn the child from a listener into a participant in discovering the site. Why was the pyramid built in this shape? How did the ancient Egyptian think about life after death? Questions like these make the tour closer to an interactive experience.
The Valley of the Kings, when explained in a way suited to children, gives them an understanding of ancient Egyptian civilization that goes beyond what they get in the classroom. The experience also includes various cultural activities:
Four packages give the family different degrees of travel duration and program scope, from a short Cairo stay to a trip covering several Egyptian destinations
For families who want to see as much of Egypt as possible, this package extends across ten days between Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, and Hurghada.
If the family's time is limited, this package offers the shortest route to discovering Cairo's most prominent landmarks.
Aboard the Nile cruise, accommodation and transport become part of the experience itself, with land tours at the trip's stops. The family does not need to change hotels every day, which makes the program more manageable with children. Between one visit and the next, the ship provides a space for rest and spending time together. The tour also reaches cities and archaeological sites from the cruise stops within an organized route.
5 day egypt tour give the family the chance to explore Luxor and Aswan within a balanced Nile trip. Alongside the main temples, the program includes a visit to a Nubian village and activities on the Nile that add variety to the archaeological days.
