Children & families

Children of all ages may use the private transfer. Child seats are available on request and must be requested at booking; availability depends on vehicle class. Infants who travel on a guardian's lap are usually not charged an extra seat, but larger child seats or separate seats follow adult pricing for the vehicle. Strollers are practical for curbside loading if folded; we do not provide high chairs. Please state child ages and whether you require a child seat at time of booking so we can confirm vehicle allocation.

– Responsible travel

How we travel here

Transfers use modern petrol or diesel sedans, SUVs and minivans operated by local drivers contracted per trip. We work with the same small fleet companies in Aswan to keep vehicle deadhead mileage low, and we assign vehicles by group size so capacity is used efficiently. Drivers are hired locally and paid per trip, providing reliable income to families in Aswan. We ask guests to reuse water bottles and return rubbish to the driver for appropriate disposal. Where feasible we combine transfers for guests with compatible flight times to reduce extra journeys, but private transfers remain individual by request. As a licensed Egyptian tour operator, we document supplier practices and review them annually to encourage vehicle maintenance and sensible fuel use.

Asked & answered

Frequent questions

  1. 01How long is the drive from Aswan hotel to Aswan Airport?
    Drive time is typically 25–40 minutes from central Aswan hotels to Aswan International Airport (ASW). Traffic, cruise-dock checkpoints, and flight-type (domestic versus international) affect total time. Allow extra time for luggage handling and airline check-in: we recommend being ready to depart your hotel at least 90 minutes before domestic flights and 2–3 hours before international flights, depending on airline rules.
  2. 02Can you pick me up from my Nile cruise boat for my flight?
    Yes – we arrange private transfers from Nile cruise docks in Aswan to Aswan Airport. We meet at the cruise gangway once the ship’s crew clears passenger disembarkation; timing depends on the ship’s checkout procedures. Tell us your cruise name and expected gangway time when you book so we can liaise with the cruise purser; unlike large coach services, we keep transfers private and door-to-door.
  3. 03What happens if my flight is delayed or cancelled?
    If your flight is delayed, we will adjust pickup and hold the vehicle within reasonable local waiting limits. If a flight is cancelled or rebooked, notify us as soon as possible so we can reschedule the transfer; additional waiting time or a new pickup outside the original window may incur extra charges. For missed connections we can assist with finding the quickest available transport, but we cannot change airline schedules.
  4. 04How do I find my driver at Aswan Airport or the cruise dock?
    Our driver meets you in arrivals or at the cruise gangway holding a name card with your name and Discovery Tours Egypt. Discovery Tours Egypt is a licensed Egyptian tour operator and our drivers will call the phone number you provide if there is any delay. At Aswan Airport wait in the arrivals hall after passport control and baggage claim; at cruise docks wait near the assigned gangway unless the ship’s staff direct otherwise.
  5. 05Are child seats or booster seats available for transfers?
    Yes – child seats and boosters are available on request; please request them at time of booking. Availability is limited, so specify child ages and number of seats when you reserve the transfer. For safety we fit the correct restraint for age and size and will confirm whether an additional vehicle is needed for large parties with multiple child seats.
  6. 06What size vehicles do you use for private transfers to Aswan Airport?
    We provide air-conditioned sedans, SUVs, and minivans matched to passenger count and luggage. Tell us the number of passengers and large suitcases so we assign the correct vehicle; sedans suit one to three passengers, minivans are used for groups with multiple large bags. We do not run large group buses for single airport transfers – we keep transfers private and door-to-door for quicker logistics.
