Full description

Visit the most famous sights of Cairo on a full-day guided tour. Learn all about ancient Egypt from your expert guide. Discover 3 pyramids, the Sphinx and tour the Egyptian Museum. A tour representative will meet you outside your hotel for the transfer to Cairo in a comfortable sedan or minivan if needed. When you arrive in Cairo you’ll be met by an Egyptologist guide and begin your tour of discovery at the Pyramids of Giza.

Learn about each of the 3 pyramids, Khufu, Khafra, and Menkaure, and also visit the Great Sphinx, the monumental statue with the head of a pharaoh on the body of a lion. Lunch will be served at a nice restaurant in Cairo, city. Afterward, your tour continues with a visit to the world-famous Egyptian Museum. The Egyptian Museum houses over 165,000 Egyptian artifacts and the immeasurable riches of the golden treasures of King Tutankhamun are undoubtedly the highlight of the exhibition. The 6 Tutankhamun gold sarcophagi are found in the main exhibit area, with his magnificent death mask the most important piece of this collection. Your guide will tell you about other top exhibits, and you’ll have plenty of time to explore the museum on your own. If you’d like to buy some souvenirs of your trip, you might find some items you like when you visit a papyrus workshop and see the production of these works of art.

This tour is fantastic. Real trip through the egyptian history with all important places visits included. Excellently planned and professionally guided by the very eloquent egyptologist, who speaks an excellent English and German language. Everything is enriched with a ton of valuable tips and recommendations, and very good local lunch. You are comfortably picked up from your hotel, travel in a bus of high touristic class and are returned to the hotel after the tour. You can ask the questions all the time and will be assisted in taking a photos by group guides, who are already well trained in that. Worth of every cent paid for it.

The trip was good. Our guide was always ready to help, was kind and made sure we had fun. We visited Egyptian Museum, where they put us up with an English speaking guide that stayed with us through Cairo and Giza, answering our questions and giving us explanations and fun facts about all the sites we saw. Lunch was also quite okay. Overall, a great experience and price-friendly.

The tour started off very early, 1am pick up from outside the hotel. Lovely big air-conditioned coach, so very comfortable in travelling there. 2 stop offs for food on the way to Cairo.. Starting off in the one and only Egyptian Museum, which included some highlights, such as Tutankhamun's beautiful gold mask, and other treasures of his found.. Then on to the mummies in their sarcophagus', a truly haunting experience but wonderful to see. A surprise boat trip on the Nile followed, with a great opportunity for photos, good music, etc. Very fun. Then on to the 3 pyramids.. Ride by camel or horse and carriage to the highest point where all can be seen.. What an experience! After this a trip to a burial chamber.. Where it gets adventurous as the entrances get narrower! Finally to see the great Sphynx.. Have a photo kissing the Sphynx. Also included lunch (lovely - pyramid can be seen), a visit to an incense shop where you can drink flavoured tea & a papyrus shop -beautiful paintings to buy
