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.

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.

Travel has been a constant in my life since my OE started with a classic Contiki trip through Europe, followed by working in London and traveling through the UK, Turkey, Egypt, and Israel. I also spent a year working in Iceland—a now trendy travel hotspot—before returning to New Zealand.
In 2000, my family moved to the middle east living in both Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, which provided an exciting base for exploring nearby destinations. We had unforgettable holidays in Austria, France, the UK, Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Sri Lanka, and Kenya.
Returning to New Zealand marked a new chapter of travel, this time without children. Recent adventures have included Vietnam, India, China, Peru, and Cambodia.
My travel career started with Singapore Airlines and since 2019 I’ve been consulting at House of Travel in Howick. I love talking and connecting with clients, listening to their travel dreams and turning them into memorable experiences.
Whether you're looking for an island getaway, relaxing cruise or an exciting adventure, I’m here to help you plan the perfect trip.
Travel is an adventure that brings the world to life.

My passion for travel begun when living in London. I was constantly booking getaways to explore all UK and Europe have to offer and I have not stopped exploring since!
Coming home, I have been privileged to take many long breaks to explore different parts of the world. - Some highlights include USA and Tahiti.
Now having a family, I see travel in different light and really enjoy slowing down and embracing every moment.
Travel is for everyone; the world has so much to offer!
I joined the travel industry just over 6 years ago and have helped many people book their dream holidays, I can't wait to help you with yours!
