It’s here! The UnchartedX Egypt tour for 2026 is available and ready for bookings. This is going to be a good one! 16 days, hitting the best of upper and lower Egypt, many special permission private accesses to sites normally closed to the public (more than anyone else) – an epic journey diving in the mysteries of Ancient Egypt.
Check out all the details, the full itinerary and booking form on the tour page here, or just click the link in the top menu.
We have also organized a cracker of an option extension after the tour – into the Fayoum and Western Desert. The ‘More Pyramids’ extension includes the mighty stone pyramids of Dashur (the Red and Bent), Meidum, we’ll visit the incredible underground artifacts of Lahun, then go into the Western Desert to visit rarely seen megalithic sites, quarries, and even the amazing and unique ‘Valley of the Whales.’
If you can’t make March, or if you’re looking for a more affordable option, I will be joining Yousef on his annual Primordial Egypt Tour in December of 2025. What’s the difference? The UnchartedX tour is longer than the Primordial, has more special permissions, and is consequently more $. I’ve been attending the Primordial tour since 2021 and it’s always a great time, with a great group of people.

As a retired Canadian couple, my wife and I sadly missed out the spring Egypt 2025 tour due to a number of factors and then never really recovered from the sense of loss 😉 but then we saw the next 2 tours: “Primordial Tour – 14 day December” and “Egypt 2026 – 16 day March.” After much analysis, back and forth discussions, we have finally decided on Egypt 2026, despite the hefty price tag 😉 ! This will be a once in a lifetime dream trip – really looking forward to it.
BTW: The Egypt 2026 Tour poster lists “The Black Pyramid” as one of the sites for this tour but wondering if this is included because it’s not mentioned in the itinerary?
Hi Gerry,
Yes it’ll be a good trip. No we won’t be visiting the Black Pyramid on the tour, that must be a small mistake on the poster. I’ve been down there, it’s not really suitable to groups, it’s also very hot and quite difficult with tight squeezes. I will do a video on my visit there sooner or later.
