Visit the iconic Pyramids of Giza, the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), and explore Old Cairo.

Day 1 / Grand Egyptian Museum & The Pyramids of Giza

Start your unforgettable journey with a private transfer from your hotel in Soma Bay to Cairo. Enjoy a comfortable drive through Egypt’s vast desert landscapes and the scenic Nile River as you head towards the capital city. Upon arrival in Cairo, your expert Egyptologist guide will greet you and accompany you throughout the day, sharing their extensive knowledge of Egypt’s ancient history.

 

Your first stop will be the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), one of the largest and most significant museums in the world. The museum houses over 100,000 ancient Egyptian artifacts, including the famous Treasures of Tutankhamun. You’ll be led through the museum, where your guide will provide fascinating insights into Egypt’s ancient civilization, with a special focus on the iconic golden mask of King Tutankhamun, royal jewelry, and other priceless relics discovered in his tomb.

 

After exploring the GEM, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant in Cairo. Taste authentic Egyptian dishes like koshari, falafel, stuffed grape leaves, and moussaka, which offer a true flavor of the local cuisine.

 

In the afternoon, head to the Giza Plateau, home to the famous Pyramids of Giza. Marvel at the sheer size and complexity of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the only surviving wonder of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Your guide will share fascinating historical details about the pyramids, including the Pyramid of Khafre with its limestone casing and the smaller Pyramid of Menkaure. You’ll also have the opportunity to take in the awe-inspiring sight of the Great Sphinx, the massive statue with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh, which has guarded the pyramids for millennia.

 

After your exploration of the Giza Plateau, you’ll be transferred to your hotel in Cairo or Giza, where you can relax and reflect on the historical wonders you’ve encountered throughout the day.

Day 2 / Old Cairo Exploration

Start your second day with a delicious breakfast at your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Then, your private guide will meet you at your hotel for a full day of sightseeing in Old Cairo.

 

Begin your day with a visit to the Citadel of Salah al-Din, a historic fortress offering panoramic views of Cairo. Learn about the significance of the Citadel, which was once the seat of Egypt’s rulers. Within the Citadel, you’ll explore the stunning Mosque of Muhammad Ali (also known as the Alabaster Mosque), famous for its impressive Ottoman architecture and magnificent dome.

 

Next, head to the Hanging Church (Saint Sergius and Bacchus), one of the oldest and most important Christian sites in Egypt. Located in Coptic Cairo, this unique church dates back to the 3rd century and is renowned for its fascinating architecture and rich history.

 

After visiting the Citadel and the Hanging Church, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant. Taste more of Egypt’s vibrant cuisine, including koshari, falafel, and moussaka, which are staple dishes in the local culture.

 

In the afternoon, experience the lively atmosphere of Khan El Khalili Bazaar, one of Cairo’s oldest and most famous markets. Wander through the narrow alleys filled with vendors selling spices, jewelry, textiles, and traditional Egyptian souvenirs. This bustling market offers a glimpse into Cairo’s vibrant culture and is the perfect place to pick up unique gifts and treasures.

 

After an enriching day exploring Old Cairo, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel in Soma Bay with your private driver. Reflect on your incredible journey, filled with history, culture, and unforgettable memories of Egypt’s most iconic landmarks.
