Itinerary

Your tour guide will meet you at your hotel early in the morning where you will transfer to your air-conditioned coach and start your journey to Cairo during your Egypt day tour.

This tour will take in some of the highlights of Cairo with lunch served at a local restaurant. The Giza Pyramids is one of the most important tourist sites in Egypt and has a long history. Amongst a complex of ancient Egyptian royal mortuary and sacred structures you will marvel at the wonderous Great Pyramid of Khufu which is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact. The pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure create a landscape unparalleled in the Middle East. You will also explore the mysterious Sphinx which is believed to guard the pyramids.

To the south of the Sphinx lies the cemetery and town of the Pyramid Builders which is being excavated to this day. The pyramids are a remarkable feat of engineering. But still, the question as to why the pyramids were constructed and how they were made is debated.

The Egyptian Museum: No trip to Cairo is complete without a visit to The Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. The museum is the first purpose-built museum edifice in the world Displayed over two floors and numerous rooms it

houses the world's largest collection of artefacts dating from the prehistoric through to the Roman periods, with the majority of the collection focused on the pharaonic era.

Khan el Khalili: We will end the tour with a visit to the largest bazaar (souk) in the Middle East, It represents the market tradition which established Cairo as a major trade centre. The popular bazaar of Khan el Khalili has a large selection of shops, workshops and coffee shops and is famous for its herbs, spices, leather goods, and very large range of incense.
