2-Day trip to Cairo & the Grand Egyptian Museum from Luxor from Marsa Alam
Day 1: Grand Egyptian Museum & Pyramids of Giza
Your journey begins with a comfortable private transfer from Marsa Alam to Cairo, a scenic drive across Egypt’s picturesque landscapes. Upon arriving in Cairo, you’ll be met by your expert private guide, who will accompany you throughout the day to explore Egypt’s most famous monuments.
Start your day at the world-renowned Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), which boasts over 50,000 ancient Egyptian artifacts. From the treasures of Tutankhamun to stunning statues and royal mummies, this museum is a treasure trove of Egypt’s ancient wonders. Highlights include the golden mask of Tutankhamun and the beautifully preserved royal mummies that give a glimpse into Egypt’s fascinating history. Your guide will offer insightful commentary on each exhibit, bringing the ancient artifacts to life.
After exploring the museum, enjoy a delicious traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant. Taste authentic Egyptian dishes such as koshari (a rice, lentil, and pasta dish), molokhia (green soup), and falafel, providing you with a true taste of Egyptian culinary culture.
In the afternoon, your journey continues to the Giza Plateau, home to the iconic Pyramids of Giza. Marvel at the Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), the largest of the three pyramids, which was the tallest man-made structure for over 3,800 years. Explore the smaller pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure and learn about their historical significance from your guide.
Don’t miss the Great Sphinx, a colossal statue with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh, symbolizing strength and wisdom.
After a day full of history and awe-inspiring sites, you’ll be transferred to your hotel in Cairo or Giza, where you can relax and unwind for the night.
Day 2: Fly to Luxor – Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple & Valley of the Kings
Start the second day of your adventure with a private transfer to Cairo Airport for your flight to Luxor—the ancient capital of Egypt and an open-air museum rich in history.
Upon arriving in Luxor, your guide will take you to the Karnak Temple, one of Egypt’s largest and most famous religious complexes. Dedicated to the god Amun-Ra, Karnak was constructed and expanded over 2,000 years. The Hypostyle Hall, with its 134 towering columns, is a highlight of this vast temple, and you’ll also explore the Sacred Lake and Obelisk of Hatshepsut, gaining insights into ancient Egyptian religious life.
Next, head to Luxor Temple, an impressive site located on the banks of the Nile. This temple, with its Avenue of Sphinxes, is renowned for its stunning reliefs and statues of pharaohs. It was also used during the Opet Festival, an important religious celebration, and your guide will provide you with fascinating details about its historical significance.
Enjoy a relaxing lunch at a local restaurant in Luxor. Many restaurants offer beautiful Nile views, making it the perfect setting to unwind while sampling more local Egyptian dishes.
In the afternoon, your adventure continues to the Valley of the Kings on the West Bank of the Nile. This site is the burial place of many New Kingdom pharaohs, including Tutankhamun. Explore the richly decorated tombs, which are adorned with vibrant murals depicting the pharaohs’ journey to the afterlife. Your guide will explain the intricate burial practices and the significance of the tombs.
Next, visit the Temple of Hatshepsut, a stunning mortuary temple dedicated to Egypt’s most famous female pharaoh. The temple’s unique architecture, with its grand terraces and colonnades, blends perfectly with the surrounding cliffs.
Your last stop of the day is the Colossi of Memnon, two giant statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. These ancient statues have stood for over 3,000 years, guarding the entrance to his temple.
After a full day of exploration in Luxor, you’ll be transferred back to Marsa Alam in a private car, where your 2-day adventure comes to an end. This journey through Egypt’s timeless history will leave you with unforgettable memories of the ancient wonders you’ve witnessed.
