Day 1 / Grand Egyptian Museum & The Pyramids of Giza
Start your journey with a comfortable and scenic private transfer from El Gouna to Cairo. Enjoy the convenience of traveling in a private, air-conditioned vehicle as you make your way through Egypt’s stunning landscapes.
Upon arrival in Cairo, your expert guide will take you to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), one of the largest museums in the world. This modern museum houses over 100,000 ancient Egyptian artifacts, including the Treasures of Tutankhamun, such as the famous golden mask and royal jewelry. Learn about the history and significance of these extraordinary treasures, and explore the museum’s other fascinating exhibits.
After your museum tour, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant. Indulge in authentic Egyptian dishes such as koshari, falafel, moussaka, and stuffed grape leaves, offering a perfect opportunity to relax and recharge.
In the afternoon, visit the Giza Plateau, home to the world-famous Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx. Your guide will share fascinating insights into the history and construction of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the only surviving wonder of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Explore the Pyramid of Khafre, renowned for its limestone casing, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, the smallest of the three.
Don’t miss the Great Sphinx, a colossal statue with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh, standing guard over the pyramids for centuries.
After a day of exploring these ancient wonders, you’ll be transferred to your hotel in Cairo or Giza for an overnight stay. Relax and reflect on the incredible sights and experiences of the day.
Day 2 / Old Cairo Exploration
Start Day 2 with a delicious breakfast at your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Your private guide will pick you up for a full day of exploration in Old Cairo.
Your first stop is the Citadel of Salah al-Din, an impressive fortress offering panoramic views of Cairo. Learn about the significance of the Citadel, which served as the seat of Egypt’s rulers for centuries. Explore the Mosque of Muhammad Ali, also known as the Alabaster Mosque, a stunning example of Ottoman architecture.
Next, head to Coptic Cairo to visit the Hanging Church (Saint Sergius and Bacchus), one of Egypt’s most famous Christian landmarks. This historic church, dating back to the 3rd century, is renowned for its unique architecture and its position above the gates of a Roman fortress.
After visiting the Citadel and the Hanging Church, enjoy another delicious traditional Egyptian lunch. Savor more local favorites like moussaka, koshari, and stuffed grape leaves.
In the afternoon, take a trip to the bustling Khan El Khalili Bazaar, one of the oldest and most famous markets in the Middle East. Wander through the narrow alleys lined with shops selling spices, jewelry, traditional fabrics, and souvenirs. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere and perhaps pick up a unique memento from your trip.
