Regent Seven Seas Navigator Egypt 2026: The Ultimate Alexandria, Cairo & Pyramids Shore Excursion

From Athens to Egypt: Turn Your Cruise Stop into an Extraordinary Journey

Sailing from Athens (Piraeus) to Egypt aboard Regent Seven Seas Navigator gives you the opportunity to experience one of the most fascinating transitions in the Mediterranean — from classical Greece to the ancient civilization of Egypt.

For passengers arriving in Alexandria on October 9, 2026, and staying overnight until October 10, this is far more than a regular cruise-port stop. The extended stay creates the perfect opportunity to travel from Alexandria to Cairo, stand before the Pyramids of Giza, visit the Great Sphinx, explore the Grand Egyptian Museum, or discover Alexandria's Greco-Roman and Mediterranean heritage.

With Narmer Tours, your Egypt experience is arranged as a private shore excursion, planned around the exact schedule of Regent Seven Seas Navigator.

Whether you are traveling from Athens/Piraeus, joining the cruise elsewhere in the Mediterranean, or simply looking for a private Egypt shore excursion from Alexandria Port, you can choose the experience that best matches your interests and available time.

Your Egypt Arrival: Alexandria Port

Regent Seven Seas Navigator is scheduled to arrive at Alexandria Port at 5:00 AM on October 9, 2026, and remain in Alexandria overnight until 10:00 PM on October 10, 2026.

This extended port stay is particularly valuable because Cairo is approximately a few hours by road from Alexandria.

Instead of limiting your experience to Alexandria, you can use the overnight stay to explore Cairo and Giza while returning to the ship before departure.

Narmer Tours can coordinate your private transportation, guide services, sightseeing and return transfer according to your cruise schedule.
