Tour Plan

Hotel Pickup

A friendly welcome awaits you at Cairo Airport. You will be picked up by a private vehicle and guided by a proficient tour guide. Then, we go off to the Giza Pyramids, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and it is all mesmerizing to be there.

Giza Pyramids Complex

This place was like a time capsule that preserved the essence of the Ancient Egyptians for 4000 years. The Giza complex is surrounded by three large, the most grandiose, pyramids and six little ones, with the grand sphinx and the valley temple.

The Great Pyramid

built in 2570 BC, is a remarkable stone structure of 2 million tones. It was completed in just 15 years and is still considered one of the original Seven Wonders of the World. Well-preserved over centuries, it stands at 146.6 meters (481 feet) and is the heaviest object in the world, weighing about 6 million units. It features an impressive King’s Chamber.

The Great Sphinx

The Great Sphinx in Horus of the Horizon was created by Pharaoh Khafre between 2558 and 2532 BC. Modeled after a lion, the Sphinx symbolizes divinity and is a guardian of immortality. Its unique characteristics are highlighted by its connection to the Dream Stele of Thutmose IV.

The Valley Temple

The Valley Temple is said to belong to the Old Kingdom (2686-2134 BC). It was used for the mummification process. The whole piece is made from red limestone and granite, which are of ancient Egyptian origin and have been completely preserved. The statue, including a god himself, was the largest and most famous in the country.

The Grand Egyptian Museum

The Grand Egyptian Museum features an impressive collection showcasing 5,000 years of Ancient Egyptian civilization. Highlights include the Statue of King Ramses II, the Statues of King Senusert, the Grand Staircase, the Victory Column of King Merneptah, and the Hanging Obelisk. Visitors can also explore the royal regalia, Grand Atrium, and Gift Shop, providing a unique glimpse into the ancient world.

In this museum, each exhibit tells a story of ancient wisdom and cultural significance, offering visitors a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to connect with the timeless legacy of Egypt.

Lunch Time

Join us for lunch at our delightful restaurant, which offers an astounding view of the Pyramids and the Nile. Later, we will visit the Egyptian Museum.

The Egyptian Museum

Established in 1901, the Egyptian Museum has been a window to the most famous museums in the world that you can only think of.

It's a bottomless box containing different pieces representing the stunning past of ancient Egypt, which has lasted for more than 5000 years.

Al Muizz Street

Al Muizz Golden Street was established by Fatimid between 953 and 975 AD and further expanded in 1171 AD. It is a cultural center displaying stunning examples of Islamic art and architecture in its many house museums, cafes, and art galleries.

Khan El Khalili Bazaar

In 970, Khan El Khalili bazaar was built to establish a link from old Cairo to its colorful future. Consequently, it became the place to be for shopping and recreation, as it presented the most astonishing and unique goods of Egypt.

Fine, indeed. After we have visited all the main attractions, we will drive you back to the Cairo airport.
