Tour Plan
Upon your arrival at Cairo Airport, a friendly representative will greet you and assist with all necessary formalities before transferring you to your hotel. Your first evening features a delightful Dinner Cruise on the Nile, where you can unwind while drifting along the iconic river. Enjoy captivating performances, including a mesmerizing belly dance and a lively folklore band showcasing the traditional Tannoura spin, reminiscent of Egypt’s whirling dervishes. This magical evening offers the perfect introduction to the rich cultural and historical wonders awaiting you in Cairo.
The next morning, following breakfast at your hotel, get ready for a full day of discovery. Begin with a visit to the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, which houses the largest and most impressive collection of Egyptian relics, spanning over 5,000 years of history. Here, you’ll encounter the treasures of ancient pharaohs and gain insight into a civilization that has fascinated the world for centuries. Afterward, travel to the iconic Giza Plateau to see the legendary pyramids—Cheops, Chefren, and Mykerinos. The Great Pyramid of Cheops stands as a remarkable symbol of ancient engineering and ambition. Nearby, the enigmatic Sphinx guards these monumental tombs, representing the power of King Chefren. Your day continues with a stop in Memphis, the former ancient capital, to view the massive statue of Ramses II and the alabaster Sphinx. The day ends with a visit to Sakkara, home to the Step Pyramid of Djoser, an architectural wonder that predates the Giza pyramids and highlights the early achievements of Egyptian builders.
On the third day, after enjoying breakfast, you’ll immerse yourself in the medieval charm of Cairo, beginning with a visit to the Citadel of Salah El-Din. This historic fortress, constructed by Saladin in the 12th century, served as the center of governance for more than seven centuries and provides sweeping views over the city. Within its walls, the Mohamed Ali Mosque stands proudly as a testament to Egypt’s rich Islamic culture. The day continues with another opportunity to explore the extensive exhibits of the Egyptian Museum in greater detail. To cap off your day, wander through the lively Khan El Khalili Bazaar, a bustling marketplace that offers a vibrant snapshot of Cairo’s commercial spirit. Here, history blends with daily life, inviting you to discover unique souvenirs and stories from the city’s rich past.
On your last day, after breakfast, you’ll visit Coptic Cairo, a district rich in Christian heritage featuring historic sites such as the Hanging Church, the Churches of St. George and St. Barbara, and the Ben Ezra Synagogue. This area offers a fascinating glimpse into the diverse religious and cultural influences that have shaped Cairo throughout the centuries. The day concludes with a transfer to the airport, bringing to a close your remarkable exploration—from the ancient marvels of the pharaohs to the winding streets of medieval Islamic Cairo—leaving you with lasting memories of Egypt’s vibrant capital and its timeless legacy.
