The day begins before sunrise with hotel pickup. You’ll be welcomed by your driver and guide, joining a small group of fellow explorers. As you set off toward Cairo, relax and enjoy the ride with planned comfort breaks along the way.
Watch as desert dunes stretch endlessly outside your window. Along the route, your guide shares insights into Egypt’s history, traditions, and modern life. It’s more than a commute—it’s part of the adventure.
After hours of anticipation, the first sight of the Great Pyramids is simply breathtaking. Standing tall against the sky, they make your heart skip a beat. Cameras click, jaws drop—and that’s just the beginning.
Explore the ancient tombs of Pharaohs. Learn how these architectural marvels were built over 4,500 years ago using simple tools and immense human effort. Stand next to blocks that weigh tons, and wonder how they did it all.
Half-human, half-lion, the Sphinx guards the plateau with an air of mystery. Your guide shares legends of lost knowledge, secret chambers, and royal symbolism. It’s a selfie spot you’ll never forget.
Want to ride a camel by the pyramids? You can! This optional add-on gives you a fun, elevated view of the site. It’s also an Instagram-worthy moment that screams, “Yes, I’m in Egypt!”
Next stop: the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. This massive repository holds over 120,000 artifacts, including the golden treasures of King Tutankhamun. It’s an eye-opening walk through millennia.
Don’t miss:
Tutankhamun’s iconic gold mask
Royal mummies of ancient kings and queens
Jewelry, tools, and household items from everyday ancient life
Your Egyptologist guide will highlight the most important and interesting exhibits. You’ll hear stories that connect the artifacts to the people and beliefs behind them.
After so much sightseeing, it’s time to enjoy a delicious meal at a local restaurant. Lunch is included and typically features grilled meats, rice, fresh salads, and traditional Egyptian bread.
No trip to Cairo is complete without a market stroll! You’ll explore colorful stalls bursting with spices, scarves, papyrus scrolls, perfumes, and handmade jewelry. Practice your bargaining skills—it’s expected!
Papyrus art with hieroglyphics
Miniature pyramids and sphinxes
Egyptian cotton scarves
Spices like hibiscus, cumin, and saffron
Your bazaar stop offers the perfect chance to interact with Cairo’s friendly shopkeepers. They’re full of character, stories, and sometimes a free mint tea.
On your way back to the bus, enjoy a panoramic drive through the city. You’ll pass historic buildings, modern neighborhoods, and Nile river scenes that reflect Cairo’s unique blend of old and new.
As the sun sets, your group settles in for the return trip. It’s a perfect time to reflect on what you’ve seen, share photos, or just rest. Most guests return by evening, tired but thrilled.
