Pick up from Sharm El Sheikh

We will pick you up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh and you will travel by comfortable, air-conditioned coach to Cairo. The journey takes approximately 6 to 7 hours.

Visit the Egyptian Museum

You will start the tour by visiting the world-famous Egyptian Museum. The museum, spanning two floors, houses a vast 120,000 masterpieces from different eras and periods in Egyptian history. The most popular exhibits are that of treasures relating to the Pharaonic kings and queens, such as the child king Tutankhamen and the room of mummies. In the latter, visitors can learn more about mummification art in ancient Egypt.

Discover the Nile by Felucca " Optional"

After your visit to the Egyptian museum, you will have the chance to relax and float on a Felucca (small motorboat) on a trip along the longest river in the world. Here you can take time to absorb the panoramic views of the city in the summer breeze. (Extra charge)

Stop for Lunch

Next, we will take a break to enjoy a delicious buffet lunch in a restaurant with wonderful views of the Nile. Drinks not included.

The Pyramids & The Sphinx visit

After lunch, we will cross the Nile and travel to Giza to the ancient pyramids, constructed around 2560BC. Renowned as one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world, it will be hard not to stare in amazement on your arrival at the pyramids and ask: ‘How were they built? And why?’ Don’t worry – all of our guides are qualified Egyptologists and will be happy to guide you and answer all of your questions. There will be the option at this point in the tour to go inside one of the three ancient pyramids.

After that, we will walk down to the edge of the plateau to King Kafra Valley where you can take your first glimpse of the Great Sphinx and its temple. The Great Sphinx of Giza is a mythological creature, formed of a human head and the body of a lion which standing at over20 meters high 73metres long is a magnificent sight to behold.

Shopping

Our final stop of about one hour will be for shopping. Here you will have the chance to buy authentic and traditional Egyptian souvenirs and gifts produced by local craftspeople. We will spend time at the Papyrus Institute, where you will be given a demonstration of how this famous paper is made and where you will also have the chance to purchase papyrus art. We will also visit a perfume shop, where you can shop for Arabian scents and beautifully decorated perfume bottles.

Drive back to Sharm El-Sheikh

At the end of the day, our guide will transfer you to Cairo bus station to catch your bus to Sharm el Sheikh. Upon arrival at Sharm el Sheikh Bus station, our rep will meet you and drop you back at your hotel.
