Ready to swap Cairo’s bustle for desert silence, sea breeze or mountain air?
Egypt is packed with stunning weekend escapes — and you don’t need to wrestle with train timetables or convoys to enjoy them. Grab your family, your uni friends or your entire team, rent a private bus and hit the road.
Here’s your mini-guide to the coolest group-friendly weekend getaways from Cairo — and why going together makes it better.
Ain Sokhna: Sea Air in Under Two Hours
Morning coffee on the Corniche → lunch toes-in-sand → back before dinner? Ain Sokhna makes it possible. Perfect for birthdays, quick retreats or just recharging.
Pro tip: Leave Friday morning, skip Thursday night traffic.
Fayoum: Desert, Lakes & Waterfalls
Fayoum is wild and surprising: magic lakes, Wadi El-Rayan waterfalls, sandboarding in Qusur El Arab dunes. A group bus means:
- No dusty caravan of 5 cars
- Space for boards, coolers & cameras
- Everyone naps on the way home
Stay overnight at a lodge, or make it an epic 1-day escape.
Alexandria: Breezy History Lesson
Corniche walks, seafood feasts, Montazah Palace gardens. Groups love Alex for:
- Cool sea breeze (even in summer)
- Sharing mezze & grilled fish platters
- Singing old songs together on the bus ride home
Quick Packing List
- Extra water & sunscreen
- Small pillow for naps
- Snacks to share
- Speaker for the playlist
