4-day Egypt itinerary from Kolkata

1. Day 1: Fly Kolkata to Egypt (6h, usually via Dubai (DXB)), transfer to your hotel and settle in.
2. Day 2: Pyramids of Giza & Sphinx and Luxor: Open-Air Museum of the Ancient World and Nile Cruise: Luxor to Aswan and Luxor & Valley of the Kings and Abu Simbel Temples and Khan el-Khalili Bazaar, Cairo and Red Sea Diving & SnorkellingThe last surviving ancient wonder — three pyramids and a sphinx that have stood for 4,500 years and still defy easy explanation. The Sound and Light Show after dark and the solar boat museum beside the Great Pyramid are both essential add-ons. Arrive at 8am before the tour buses and the desert air is still cool.Luxor packs more pharaonic history per square kilometre than anywhere on earth — the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple (the largest religious complex ever built), Luxor Temple, Hatshepsut's cliff-face mortuary temple and dozens of lesser-known tombs across the Nile's West Bank.A 3–4 night cruise between Luxor and Aswan on the ancient river — stopping at Esna, Edfu and Kom Ombo temples along the way, watching felucca sailboats on banks that haven't changed much since the pharaohs' time. Egypt's most civilised way to see the Upper Nile monuments.Ancient Thebes — Egypt's greatest open-air museum. The Valley of the Kings holds 63 royal tombs including Tutankhamun's; Karnak Temple complex took 2,000 years to build; Luxor Temple is lit up at night and reflected in the Nile. A felucca sail between Luxor and Aswan through sugar cane fields at sunset is Egypt at its most timeless.Four 20-metre statues of Ramses II carved from a cliff face 3,200 years ago — and in 1968, an entire international engineering effort moved the whole temple 65 metres uphill to save it from the rising Nile. Twice a year the sun penetrates 60 metres into the mountain to illuminate the inner sanctuary. Engineering as mythology.A medieval bazaar in continuous operation since 1382 — alleyways of spices, perfume oils, silver lanterns, papyrus art and hookah pipes under vaulted ceilings. The oldest coffeehouse in the Middle East (El Fishawy, established 1773) opens onto the bazaar's main square. This is where Cairo's soul is kept.The Red Sea has some of the world's finest and most accessible diving — warm clear water, year-round visibility of 20–30m, coral walls teeming with Napoleon wrasse, reef sharks and neon-lit fish. Hurghada is the mass-market option; Dahab's Blue Hole and Marsa Alam are where serious divers go.
3. Day 3: Egyptian Museum & Grand Egyptian Museum and Dahab Blue Hole Diving and Sahara Desert White Desert and Felucca Sail at Sunset, Aswan and Islamic Cairo — Al-Muizz Street and Siwa Oasis and Stargazing in the Eastern DesertThe Grand Egyptian Museum — the world's largest archaeological museum, opened near the Pyramids in 2023 — holds 100,000 objects including the complete, perfectly preserved Tutankhamun collection (5,000 objects from a single tomb). The golden death mask alone stops every visitor cold.The world's most famous dive site — a 150m underwater sinkhole in the Red Sea near Sinai, with clear water, coral walls and a challenge dive that has claimed many lives. Beginners can snorkel the surface; certified divers access the arch.The White Desert National Park, 6 hours from Cairo — chalk rock formations eroded into surreal mushroom shapes by wind, glowing white under the full moon. Camping here under the Milky Way with Bedouin guides is Egypt's most otherworldly experience.An ancient wooden sailboat gliding past Nubian villages and Elephantine Island on the Nile at golden hour — the most peaceful thing Egypt offers, and one of the most beautiful river scenes in the world.The world's largest concentration of medieval Islamic architecture on a single street — mausoleums, mosques and madrasas from the Fatimid and Mamluk eras, many in active use. Particularly atmospheric at dawn during the call to prayer.A desert oasis in Egypt's western corner near Libya — oracle temple where Alexander the Great was declared a god, natural spring pools, salt lakes and one of North Africa's most remote and beautiful Berber communities.Egypt's eastern desert, away from all city light, offers some of the clearest night skies on earth — the Milky Way visible in its full arch, shooting stars nightly, and the silence of a desert at 3am that is unlike any other quiet.
4. Day 4: Last-minute shopping, check-out and flight back to Kolkata.
