Full-Day Cairo Excursion from Sharm El Sheikh via Flight

In the early morning, a Five S Travel representative will collect you from your hotel in Sharm and transfer you to Sharm Airport for your day trip flight to Cairo. Upon arrival at Cairo Airport, your expert Egyptologist guide will greet you and lead you on a fascinating full-day tour of Cairo’s most iconic sites.

Begin with a visit to the Great Pyramids of Giza, marveling at the Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu), the only surviving wonder of the ancient world and the tallest pyramid in Egypt, originally standing at 146 meters when completed around 2570 BC. Then explore the Pyramid of Chephren (Khafre), the second-largest pyramid, built as the tomb for Pharaoh Khafre, who ruled during the Fourth Dynasty around 2558–2532 BC. Next, discover the Pyramid of Menkaure (Mycerinus), the smallest of the three major pyramids, thought to be the resting place of Pharaoh Menkaure.

Continue to the majestic Great Sphinx, a legendary monument carved from a single stone, featuring the body of a lion and the face resembling Pharaoh Khafre. The statue stretches 70 meters long and stands 20 meters high, embodying mystery and ancient grandeur.

Next, visit the renowned Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, commonly known as the Egyptian or Cairo Museum. This museum houses an extensive collection of over 120,000 artifacts, with many on display and the rest carefully preserved in storage. The museum building itself, constructed in 1901 by an Italian firm and designed by French architect Marcel Dourgnon, is among the largest museums in the region. If you wish, you can also explore the Royal Mummies Room for an additional fee.

After this incredible day of exploration, you will be transferred back to Cairo Airport to catch your return flight to Sharm El Sheikh. Upon landing, a Five S Travel representative will meet you and escort you back to your hotel, concluding your unforgettable day in Cairo.
