For The Trade · Agents & Operators
The Egypt DMC your clients never see.
Egypt Discovery is the UK face of Discovery Tours Egypt — a Class-A destination management company (DMC) in Egypt that has run inbound ground services for agents, operators and MICE buyers since 1988. A fair few Egypt holidays sold under other names travel on our transfers, our guides and our cruise allocations. If you're in the trade, you'd work with our B2B desk directly, not through this consumer site.
· Class-A ETAA #718 · IATA #90255546 · running since 1988.
On The Ground
What a destination management company in Egypt looks after.
Transfers & meet-and-assist
Our own fleet and trusted drivers across Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Hurghada, Marsa Alam and Sharm El Sheikh — from a nameboard at arrivals to VIP fast-track and long road legs.
Licensed Egyptologist guides
Guides on our own payroll, most with twenty years or more at the same temples. Not a pool of freelancers swapped in the week your clients fly.
Nile cruises & dahabiyas
Allocation and contracting across standard, deluxe and ultra-deluxe ships, small-boat dahabiyas and Lake Nasser sailings — all at trade rates.
Hotels, groups & events
Contracted rooming, group blocks, incentive programmes, conferences and one-off events, organised by a dedicated MICE desk.
Red Sea resort handling
Weekly arrivals looked after across Sharm, Hurghada, Marsa Alam, El Gouna, Makadi, Soma Bay and Sahl Hasheesh for operator series.
24-hour operations desk in Egypt
A real desk on the ground, an hour or two ahead of your office, sorting whatever comes up the same day — not a ticket parked until tomorrow.
Why The Trade Comes Straight To Us
An Egypt DMC that runs the trip, rather than passing it on.
- We run it ourselves — or hand it to a partner we've known for years
- Most of the transfers, guides and cruise allocations are our own. Where we do bring someone in, it's an operator we've worked alongside for years and hold to the same standard — never an unknown subcontractor chosen on price. A good few of the names ranking for “Egypt DMC” are directories or incentive brokers quietly farming the work out; we either do it ourselves or vouch for whoever does.
- Since 1988, still family-run
- A destination management company in Egypt for thirty-eight years, with no holding company sitting in between. The people who price your programme are the people who deliver it.
- Class-A licensed and accredited
- Egyptian Tourism Authority Class-A licence (ETAA #718) and IATA accreditation (#90255546) — a contract you can hold us to, not a marketplace disclaimer.
- Six offices, one operator
- Cairo head office plus Luxor, Aswan, Hurghada, Marsa Alam and Sharm El Sheikh, so the whole country runs through one operations team.
