Flight time
The flight from Auckland to Egypt takes roughly 23.5 hours with a stopover, but it's worth a long flight to see so many ancient wonders.
Egypt is a bucket list destination for so many of us – who didn’t grow up with images of pyramids and the Sphinx etched into our memories from storybooks and movies?
The only trouble is figuring out how to fit it all in.
Of course, you’ll want to explore ancient treasures like the Great Pyramids and the bustling mosques and bazaars of Cairo. Then there’s Luxor – the world’s greatest open-air museum – home to jaw-dropping sites like the Temple of Karnak and the Valley of the Kings.
But don’t stop there. Marsa Alam is a diver’s dream, with pristine reefs and crystal-clear waters, while Aswan offers serene Nile-side beauty and a glimpse into Nubian culture. Or unwind on Egypt’s Mediterranean coast, where luxury resorts and golden beaches offer pure relaxation.
This is a land where anything feels possible – a place of stories, colour and unforgettable moments. The memories you’ll make here? Pure magic.

The flight from Auckland to Egypt takes roughly 23.5 hours with a stopover, but it's worth a long flight to see so many ancient wonders.
Winter in Egypt brings crowds to beaches, pyramids, and Nile cruises, but only the bravest try and endure the heat in July and August. For fewer crowds and pleasant weather, March, April and October are great.
Egypt is 10–11 hours behind New Zealand depending on daylight saving in both countries. Hopefully the distraction of incredible sights will help with the jet lag.

Why Choose Me as Your
Travel Consultant?
Travel isn't just about reaching a destination it's about discovering the
hidden gems that transform a trip into an unforgettable story. With a
Bachelor's degree in Outdoor Recreation Sports and a lifetime spent exploring
both rugged landscapes and vibrant cities, I bring a unique perspective that
goes far beyond typical tourist itineraries.
My roots in Ireland taught me to appreciate nature's raw beauty. I've summited
every mountain in the country, including my beloved Tonelegee, where the trail
rewards you with views of Lough Ouler a heart-shaped lake that reminds you why
we wander in the first place. This deep connection to outdoor adventure means I
understand travelers who crave authentic experiences, whether that's finding
the perfect hiking route or a secluded viewpoint that isn't in any guidebook.
Living in the Netherlands expanded my horizons in ways I never anticipated. I
fell in love with how seamlessly you can hopscotch between countries and
cultures breakfast in Leiden, lunch in Brussels, dinner in Cologne. But I also
learned to dig deeper: discovering D'Artagnan's statue (The Three Musketeers)
in Maastricht, understanding the city's role in European history, savoring
local flavors that tell the story of a place. I've learned that the best travel
experiences come from balancing spontaneity with insider knowledge.
What truly sets me apart is my approach to travel planning: I believe in the
magic of getting lost with purpose. I'll help you find those non-touristy
restaurants where locals actually eat, the neighborhood markets that buzz with
authentic energy, and the lesser-known historical sites that reveal a
destination's true character. These are the moments that stay with you long
after you've unpacked your suitcase.
I'm also part of a family that lives and breathes exploration. My fiancé who
originates from France, shares my passion for discovering new places, and my
mother-in-law literally writes the book on travel authoring French travel
guides from her home in Greece. This means I'm constantly exchanging tips,
routes, and hidden treasures with fellow enthusiasts who understand that travel
is both an art and a calling.
Whether you're an adventurous hiker seeking Europe's most breathtaking trails,
a culture enthusiast wanting to trace historical footsteps, or simply someone
who wants to experience a destination like a local rather than a tourist, I'll
craft an itinerary that speaks to your spirit. I understand that the best
journeys are personal, and I'm committed to helping you create memories that
are uniquely yours.
Let's turn your travel dreams into extraordinary realities.
