Built for travellers who just want to get on the train

Egypt's overnight sleeper trains are extraordinary. You board in Cairo as the sun sets, wake up pulling into Luxor with the Nile glittering outside your window, and step onto the platform a few steps from the Valley of the Kings. It's one of the most romantic ways to travel anywhere in the world.

We built Trains Egypt because international travellers deserve to experience this journey without the stress of figuring it out themselves. The right station, the right train, the right cabin, all confirmed before you leave home.

Our mission is simple: make it possible for any international traveller to book Egypt's sleeper trains in minutes, in English, with a payment method that actually works. No confusion, no wrong stations, no guesswork.

We handle everything, from searching live availability, taking secure payment in your currency, booking your ticket with Egypt Railways, and delivering it to your inbox. You just show up at the station.

What we stand for

The routes we serve

We currently cover Egypt's two main sleeper train routes, Cairo to Luxor and Cairo to Aswan, in both directions, daily. Both routes use the same overnight train, one of the most scenic rail journeys in Africa.
