Private Day trip to Cairo from Marsa Alam By Flight

Private Transfer from Hotel to Hurghada Airport

Your journey begins with a private transfer from your hotel in Marsa Alam to Hurghada International Airport. The drive takes around 2.5 to 3 hours, allowing you to relax before catching your flight to Cairo. Upon arrival at Cairo’s International Airport, your personal guide will be waiting at the arrival gate, ready to take you on an unforgettable exploration of Egypt’s capital.

Explore the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx

Your adventure kicks off with a visit to the world-famous Giza Pyramids, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Marvel at the impressive Great Pyramid of Cheops, the Pyramid of Chephren, and the Pyramid of Mykerinus, each built as tombs for ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. As you stand before these awe-inspiring structures, your guide will provide fascinating historical insights about their construction and significance in Egyptian culture.

 

Don’t miss the Great Sphinx, the enigmatic lion-bodied figure with the head of a Pharaoh. This colossal statue, dating back to the reign of King Chephren, has been a symbol of Egypt’s power and mystery for millennia. You’ll also visit the Valley Temple of Chephren, an important site for mummification and religious rituals in ancient Egypt.

Visit the Papyrus Institute

After exploring the pyramids, your next stop is the Papyrus Institute. Here, you’ll see how the ancient Egyptians developed papyrus, the first paper-like material. Discover the fascinating process of creating this iconic writing surface from the papyrus plant.

 

You can also purchase genuine papyrus artwork and souvenirs, making this the perfect place to pick up a unique and authentic gift to remember your visit.

Lunch with a View of the Pyramids

After a morning of exploring, enjoy a delicious Egyptian lunch at a restaurant offering stunning views of the Giza Pyramids. Indulge in traditional Egyptian dishes such as koshari, grilled meats, and fresh bread, all while soaking in the spectacular sights. It’s a great opportunity to relax and refuel for the rest of your day’s adventure.

Visit the Egyptian Museum

Next, head to the Egyptian Museum, located in Tahrir Square, where you’ll witness an extraordinary collection of ancient artifacts. With over 250,000 items on display, this museum holds the largest and most valuable collection of Pharaonic antiquities in the world. Highlights include the Treasures of Tutankhamun, such as his famous golden death mask, and the dazzling jewelry and items found within his tomb.

 

For those keen to delve deeper into Egypt’s royal history, consider visiting the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (additional fee), which showcases the royal mummies of famous Pharaohs like Ramses II and Seti I.

Explore the Khan El Khalili Bazaar

After a day of historical exploration, immerse yourself in the lively and colorful atmosphere of Khan El Khalili Bazaar, Cairo’s most famous market. Wander the bustling alleyways and browse through a wide array of goods, including handmade jewelry, spices, perfumes, textiles, and souvenirs.

 

The bazaar is a shopper’s paradise, offering a true taste of Egypt’s culture. Take your time to haggle with the local vendors and pick up some unique keepsakes.

Return to your Hotel

After an action-packed day in Cairo, you’ll be driven back to Cairo Airport for your return flight to Hurghada. Upon arrival in Hurghada, a private driver will be waiting to take you back to your hotel in Marsa Alam, allowing you to unwind after a full day of exploration and adventure.

Optional Visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum

For those looking for even more exploration, you can choose to visit the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), which started its trial opening phase in October 2024. The GEM showcases some of the most incredible Egyptian artifacts ever discovered, including many from King Tutankhamun’s tomb.

 

The museum also features a Great Hall, Grand Staircase, and galleries dedicated to various periods of Egyptian history (extra fee applies).
