Your adventure begins with a private pick-up from your hotel in Soma Bay at 3:00 AM. Settle into your comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy the scenic drive through the Egyptian desert.

As you travel across the vast landscape, you’ll be preparing for a full day of exploring some of the most iconic historical sites in Egypt. The first stop on your journey is the Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Marvel at the Great Pyramid of Cheops, built during the 4th Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, and explore the Pyramid of Chephren and the Pyramid of Mykerinus. Your private Egyptologist guide will enlighten you on the fascinating history, architectural brilliance, and religious significance of these majestic tombs.

Next, head to the Great Sphinx of Giza, the iconic limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of Pharaoh Chephren. Learn about the symbolism behind the Sphinx and the mystery of its origins, as well as its role in guarding the pyramids for millennia.

Following your visit to the Pyramids and Sphinx, proceed to the Valley Temple of Chephren, where ancient Egyptians performed mummification rituals. This remarkably well-preserved temple offers insights into the funerary practices and religious customs of the Pharaohs.

After a day of exploring Egypt’s ancient monuments, enjoy a delightful lunch at a local restaurant with panoramic views of the pyramids.  Relish traditional Egyptian cuisine while soaking in the incredible surroundings.

In the afternoon, visit the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square, which houses over 250,000 artifacts from Egypt’s ancient past. The museum’s highlight is the famous Tutankhamun collection, including his golden death mask and royal treasures that were hidden in his tomb for over 3,500 years.

Explore other priceless exhibits that offer a glimpse into Egypt’s ancient civilization, gods, and Pharaohs.

For those seeking a deeper experience, you can choose to visit the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (optional), where you can see the Royal Mummies Hall featuring mummies of famous Pharaohs such as Ramses II and Seti I.

This visit will provide a deeper understanding of Egypt’s advanced mummification techniques. After an enriching day, you’ll be transferred to your hotel in Cairo to relax and enjoy an evening at leisure, preparing for the exciting second day of your tour.
