Cairo Deluxe Itinerary
1. Early Morning Departure (02:00 AM)
We depart Hurghada in the early hours to ensure a full day of discovery. Relax in our comfortable minibus for the approx. 6-hour drive, enjoying views of the Red Sea sunrise and the majestic Eastern Desert mountains.
2. The Pyramids of Giza & The Sphinx
Our first destination is the legendary Giza Plateau. Your guide will take you back 4,500 years to the era of the Pharaohs.
-
The Great Pyramid: Walk around the base of the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World, the Pyramid of Cheops.
-
The Solar Boat: See the pit where the world’s oldest boat was discovered (optional viewing if open).
-
The Sphinx: Stand face-to-face with the guardian of the plateau—a lion’s body with a human head, symbolizing strength and wisdom.
-
The Valley Temple: We conclude the plateau visit at the Valley Temple, the site of mummification rituals, located directly next to the Sphinx.
3. Lunch with a View
Enjoy a freshly prepared lunch at a carefully selected local restaurant near the Pyramids, giving you time to relax before the afternoon’s cultural highlight.
4. The New Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM)
We have saved the best for last. You will visit the spectacular Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the largest archaeological museum in the world.

Natasha –
Experience was amazing and a trip I will never forget. The pyramids are so much better seeing them with the human eye. Zeyad our tour guide was brilliant and made the day such a memorable experience. He is very knowledgeable and was able to provide so much information about each spot on the tour, as well as Cairo. One the group members became ill on tour and Zeyad couldn’t have done enough for her. The experience was amazing but even better with him as a tour guide. I would ask for him on every tour I ever go to around the world if I could. Because of him we enjoyed the tour so much more. Thank you so much

Definitely worth a visit if you are Cairo.

Nous avons passé une superbe journée au Caire. Le temps de trajet est long (mais on s’y attend). Nous ne regrettons pas du tout cette expérience. Le guide a été super et les chauffeurs également.

It was a very interesting trip to Cairo. All information regarding the tour was excellently provided by Zeyad via WhatsApp and everything was accurate. A particular highlight of the tour was the guide in Cairo, Hatem, who explained everything in a very entertaining way and always kept the mood in a good mood.
