Day Trip To The Grand Egyptian Museum From Soma Bay By Flight
Soma Bay to Cairo
Start your adventure with a private transfer from your Soma Bay hotel to Hurghada International Airport, where you will board a short, scenic flight to Cairo. The flight is quick and comfortable, maximizing your time in Cairo to explore its ancient landmarks.
Once you arrive at Cairo International Airport, your private Egyptologist guide will meet you, ready to provide an in-depth, informative tour of Egypt’s rich history. The day kicks off immediately, ensuring that your experience is insightful and unforgettable.
The Giza Plateau
Your exploration begins at the famous Giza Plateau, home to the most iconic pyramids in the world. Stand before the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest and most awe-inspiring of the three, and the only surviving wonder of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The immense scale of this ancient structure and the mystery of its construction more than 4,500 years ago will leave you in wonder.
Adjacent to the Great Pyramid, the Pyramid of Khafre retains its upper limestone casing, while the imposing Great Sphinx—this monumental limestone statue with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh—has guarded the pyramids for thousands of years.
The smallest pyramid, the Pyramid of Menkaure, offers an intricate look into ancient Egyptian tombs. As you explore these massive monuments, your guide will reveal the fascinating history and myths surrounding these legendary structures, while you have plenty of opportunities to snap stunning photos.
Lunch
After your visit to the pyramids, enjoy a delicious and authentic Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant.
Indulge in traditional Egyptian dishes such as koshari, falafel, and stuffed grape leaves, giving you a true taste of Cairo’s rich and diverse culinary heritage. This meal is the perfect way to recharge and refresh before your next unforgettable stop.
Grand Egyptian Museum
Following lunch, your exploration continues with a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), one of the world’s largest and most impressive museums. Recently opened, the GEM houses over 100,000 artifacts, offering an unparalleled insight into the ancient Egyptian civilization.
A highlight of the museum is the stunning collection of treasures from the tomb of Tutankhamun, including the iconic golden death mask, exquisite jewelry, and other priceless personal belongings of the boy king. These treasures, discovered by archaeologist Howard Carter in 1922, are some of the most famous artifacts ever found. Additionally, the museum’s royal mummies collection provides a rare and fascinating glimpse into ancient Egypt’s burial practices and religious beliefs.
As you wander through the museum’s expansive galleries, your guide will share captivating stories about the many statues, reliefs, and artifacts that depict the gods, pharaohs, and everyday life of ancient Egypt, making this visit an unforgettable journey through time.
Return Flight to Soma Bay
As your incredible day comes to an end, you will head to Cairo International Airport for your return flight to Hurghada. Reflect on the awe-inspiring sights and historical treasures you’ve experienced, carrying with you memories of Egypt’s most celebrated ancient wonders.
Upon arrival at Hurghada, your private driver will be waiting to take you back to your hotel in Soma Bay, ensuring a smooth and comfortable transfer, allowing you to unwind after a day of exploration and discovery.
