Highlights

Arrival and tour Giza Pyramids, Sphinx & Memphis & Sakkara

Pyramids of Giza - Upon arrival at Cairo airport, our representative will greet you and escort you to begin your full-day tour. Start by visiting the Great Pyramids - Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinos. Then, explore the Valley Temple, where priests mummified the body of King Chephren, the owner of the second pyramid at Giza Plateau. Here, you can also get a close-up view of the Sphinx, the legendary guardian with a lion’s body and the head of King Chephren, standing by the massive funeral complex.

Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Continue your tour to Sakkara, located just 27 km southwest of Cairo. Visit the Step Pyramid, built for King Zoser, which is a significant milestone in the evolution of pyramid construction, transitioning from simple mastabas to the more recognized pyramid shape.

Memphis and Sakkara - Proceed to Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt, where you will see the colossal statue of Ramses II and the magnificent Alabaster Sphinx. This city dates back to 3100 B.C.

At the end of the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel.

Tour to Egyptian Museum, Citadel, Bazaar & departure

The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - After breakfast at the hotel, you will be picked up at 8:00 am to start your full-day tour at the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. The museum houses the world’s largest and most valuable collection of Egyptian art, with over 250,000 genuine artifacts dating back 5,000 years. It includes a special exhibit dedicated to Tutankhamun, featuring treasures, gold, and jewelry that were buried in his tomb for over 3,500 years until its discovery in the 1920s.

Cairo Citadel - Next, visit the Citadel of Saladin, where you will see the Mohamed Ali Mosque, also known as the Alabaster Mosque. Its design is similar to the Blue Mosque in Turkey, though it is smaller in size.

Khan Al-Khalili - Finally, explore the Khan El Khalili Bazaars, renowned for their fine brassware, copper, perfumes, leather, silver, gold, antiques, and more.

At the end of the day, you will be transferred back to Cairo International Airport.

Amazing time in Egypt! - This tour was amazing! Mahmoud was incredibly knowledgable and very helpful! All of the activities we did, including meals were fantastic! In these two days we were packed full of all of the sites, and I loved the way he catered to what we wanted to see, adding in things that interested us. Two days wasn't enough and if I'm able to go back I will hire him again!
