Overnight trip to the Pyramids From Hurghada by Car

Day 1 / Hurghada to Cairo – Pyramids, Saqqara, and Memphis

Your adventure begins with a private pickup from your hotel in Hurghada , ensuring a smooth and hassle-free start to your tour. Relax in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle during your scenic 5-6 hour drive through Egypt’s expansive desert landscapes.

 

Upon arrival in Cairo, you’ll visit the Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Explore the Great Pyramid of Khufu, Pyramid of Khafre, and Pyramid of Menkaure, marveling at the incredible engineering and historical significance of these ancient structures. Learn about the spiritual legacy of the pyramids and their role in Egyptian burial practices.

 

Next, stand in awe before the Great Sphinx of Giza, an iconic monument with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, symbolizing the power and wisdom of ancient Egypt. Capture the perfect photograph at the panoramic viewpoint, where all three pyramids stand proudly against the golden desert backdrop.

 

After exploring Giza, recharge with a delicious Egyptian lunch at a carefully selected local restaurant, offering authentic Egyptian dishes such as grilled kebabs, koshari, and falafel.

 

Your journey continues to Saqqara, home to the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the oldest known pyramid in Egypt. Discover the story behind this revolutionary structure, designed by the legendary architect Imhotep, and explore the surrounding tombs and mastabas that reveal the early innovations in Egyptian pyramid-building techniques.

 

End the day with a visit to Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt. Explore the open-air museum, where you can admire the colossal statue of Ramses II, one of the largest and most detailed statues ever discovered. The Alabaster Sphinx, another significant relic, stands as a testament to Egypt’s Old Kingdom grandeur. Afterward, check in to a 4-star hotel in Cairo to relax and unwind after a day filled with Egypt’s most iconic landmarks.

Day 2 / Cairo Highlights – Citadel, Mosque, Museums, and Bazaar

After a hearty breakfast at your hotel, begin your second day with a visit to the Citadel of Saladin, a historic fortress offering stunning panoramic views of Cairo and the Nile River.

 

Inside, explore the magnificent Mohamed Ali Mosque, a grand example of Ottoman architecture often referred to as the Alabaster Mosque due to its gleaming alabaster-covered walls. This mosque is a significant symbol of Cairo’s Islamic heritage and an architectural marvel.

 

Next, immerse yourself in the wonders of the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. This modern museum houses incredible artifacts, showcasing the story of Egypt’s civilization through its vast collections. One of the highlights is the Royal Mummies Hall, where you can view the preserved mummies of famous pharaohs such as Ramses II, Hatshepsut, and Tutankhamun. The museum provides a unique and immersive insight into the evolution of Egyptian civilization, spanning thousands of years from the Prehistoric era to the Pharaonic, Greco-Roman, and Islamic periods.

 

For lunch, enjoy another traditional Egyptian meal at a local restaurant, where you can savor popular dishes like stuffed grape leaves, fatta, and shawarma.

 

If time allows, indulge in the vibrant atmosphere of Khan El Khalili, Cairo’s famous bazaar and shopping district. Wander through its bustling alleys filled with colorful stalls offering a variety of goods such as handmade jewelry, traditional crafts, spices, souvenirs, and authentic Egyptian clothing. This lively marketplace is a perfect spot to experience the cultural vibrancy of Cairo and pick up unique souvenirs to remember your trip.

 

As your exciting adventure in Cairo concludes, embark on the scenic drive back to Hurghada, where you’ll arrive in the evening, bringing with you unforgettable memories of Cairo’s rich history, ancient monuments, and vibrant culture. This tour provides the ultimate experience for those looking to explore Egypt’s most iconic landmarks, from the pyramids and museums to the mosques and bazaars of Cairo.
