Your Tour Itinerary
Day 1

You will be picked up directly from your hotel in the morning. During the journey to Cairo, you will gain fascinating insights into the history of ancient Egypt and everyday life in the country today.

Visit the impressive Citadel of Saladin and the famous Muhammad Ali Mosque, also known as the Alabaster Mosque. Admire the magnificent architecture and enjoy a spectacular panoramic view of Cairo.
Lunch
After sightseeing, enjoy lunch at a carefully selected local restaurant.
Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM)
The Grand Egyptian Museum is one of the world’s most important archaeological museums. Together with your Egyptologist, you will discover monumental statues, sarcophagi, and numerous original artifacts from the age of the pharaohs.
Overnight Stay in Cairo
Afterward, your driver will take you directly to your comfortable 4-star hotel. The rest of the evening is yours to spend as you wish and reflect on the day’s experiences at your leisure.
Day 2
Pyramids of Giza
Together with your Egyptologist, visit the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. Learn how these monumental structures were built and why they remain among the greatest achievements in human history.
The interior of the Great Pyramid of Khufu can also be visited for an additional fee set by the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities.

Next to the pyramids, visit the Great Sphinx of Giza. This monumental statue, with the body of a lion and the head of a human, is one of Egypt’s most famous landmarks and is closely associated with the pyramid complex of Pharaoh Khafre.

Visit Cairo’s historic Islamic quarter. Explore the Citadel of Saladin and the Alabaster Mosque while enjoying views across the vast metropolis.
Khan el-Khalili Bazaar
Next, explore the historic Khan el-Khalili Bazaar. The visit is part of the cultural sightseeing program, but whether you choose to buy anything is entirely up to you.
Coptic Cairo
Finally, visit Cairo’s Coptic quarter, discover its historic churches, and learn more about the origins of Christianity in Egypt.

After two memorable days, begin the return journey to your hotel on the Red Sea.
A Personal Tip from Our Egyptologist
17 years of experience as an Egyptologist and more than 3,000 guided tours throughout Egypt.
Many guests associate Cairo exclusively with the pyramids. It is only during this tour that they discover how diverse the city’s history truly is—from the age of the pharaohs and Islamic Cairo to the Coptic quarter.
