Your adventure begins with a hotel pick-up from your accommodation in Sahl Hasheesh, a luxury resort town along the Red Sea, known for its tranquil beaches and stunning views. From there, you’ll be transferred to Hurghada Airport, where you’ll board a quick flight to Cairo with trusted airlines like EgyptAir or Nile Air.
Upon arrival at Cairo International Airport, you’ll be met by your expert Egyptologist guide, who will accompany you throughout the day and provide fascinating insights into Egypt’s ancient history and culture.
Your first destination will be the renowned Giza Plateau, home to the Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest and oldest of the three pyramids, will take your breath away with its monumental size and architectural mastery.
Explore the Pyramid of Khafre, famous for its limestone casing that still remains at the top, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, the smallest of the trio but no less impressive. Don’t miss the Great Sphinx, the iconic statue with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, symbolizing wisdom, power, and strength. Capture stunning photos of these timeless monuments against the vast desert landscape at the panoramic viewpoint.
Around midday, you’ll enjoy a delicious traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant. Savor a variety of authentic Egyptian dishes, including grilled kofta, kebabs, koshari (a blend of rice, pasta, lentils, and chickpeas), falafel, and stuffed grape leaves, complemented by freshly baked pita bread and a variety of dips like tahini and baba ganoush. This will give you a true taste of Egypt’s culinary heritage, making you feel even more connected to the culture you’re exploring.
