- Cairo - Begins at 8:00 am with a pickup from your hotel by a guide to start your full-day tour visiting the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. It showcases the largest and most valuable items of Egyptian art in the world. The museum features a rare collection of over 250,000 genuine artifacts dating back as far as 5000 years, including a special exhibit dedicated to Tutankhamun – a collection of treasures, gold, and jewelry that were buried in his tomb for over 3,500 years before being discovered in the 1920s when his tomb was excavated.
- The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - The Egyptian Museum in Cairo, often referred to simply as the Egyptian Museum (Arabic: المتحف المصري, romanized: al-Matḥaf al-Miṣrī, Egyptian Arabic: el-Matḥaf el-Maṣri [elˈmætħæf elˈmɑsˤɾi]), is located in Cairo, Egypt, and houses the largest collection of Egyptian antiquities in the world. It contains over 120,000 items, with a representative amount on display. Situated in a building constructed in 1901, it is the largest museum in Africa. Among its masterpieces are Pharaoh Tutankhamun’s treasures, including his iconic gold burial mask, widely regarded as one of the best-known works of art in the world and a prominent symbol of ancient Egypt.
- Cairo Citadel - The Citadel of Sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi (Saladin) is one of the most iconic monuments in Islamic Cairo and among the most impressive defensive fortresses from the Middle Ages. Its strategic location on the Muqattam Hills provided a formidable defensive position and offers, as it still does today, an unrestricted panoramic view of Cairo.
Sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi was the first to order the construction of a fortress over the Muqattam Hills in (572 AH/ 1176 AD), but it was not completed during his lifetime. This was achieved during the reign of Sultan al-Kamel ibn al-Adel (604 AH/1207 AD) who decided to reside in it, making it the official residence of the rulers of Egypt. In the mid-nineteenth century, Khedive Ismail moved the official residence to Abdeen Palace in downtown Cairo. The Citadel witnessed some of the most significant events in Egyptian history from the time it was built to the end of the Muhammad Ali Dynasty.
- Khan el-Khalili - Then continue your day tour to Khan El Khalili Bazaar. The numerous shops in this district are known for trading fine brassware, copper, perfumes, leather, silver, gold, antiques, and much more.
At the end of the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
