Day 1Pyramids of Giza & Egyptian Museum

Your own guide and driver will meet you at the Alexandria port exit door and take you to Cairo, which is approximately a three-hour drive away. When you arrive in your English-speaking professional, the guide will take you on a tour of the city's most prominent attractions. The day excursion will begin with the peak of the excitement: the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. You will explore the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the emblem of eternity and the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world that still exists. It is undoubtedly one of ancient Egypt's most well-known and essential structures.  

A masterpiece of manufactured structure and architecture, you will be stunned by the enormous size of its blocks, height, and antiquity of over 4600 years. While you gaze at this magnificent edifice, your guide will provide an in-depth overview of the area, including the other pyramids of Chephren and Mycerinus, answer all of your questions, and give you free time for photography. You will be able to photograph the entire area, including all of the pyramids, from the panorama area. You will spend more than two hours in the region so that you have the opportunity to do additional activities like entering one of the pyramids, visiting the Sun Boat Museum, or having a camel ride (at your request for an additional fee). 

Continuing to the Sphinx region, you will spend some time viewing this monolith statue, which represents the pharaoh's power and wisdom because it was carved with a lion's body and the pharaoh's head. Next to the Sphinx, you will visit the Valley Temple to learn about mummification in ancient Egypt. Lunch will be served on the way to your next destination at a local Egyptian restaurant. After indulging in some delectable Egyptian cuisine, another big dinner awaits you. You will visit one of the world's largest museums, the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, which displays the most extensive collection of Egyptian monuments.

Allow at least two hours for the museum tour, but don't expect to see everything in one visit—exploring the entire museum might require days, and it's easy to get lost. With so much to see, coming with a tour guide is a smart option and our private guided tour promises that you will make the most of your time and see the highlights. At the end of this incredible tour, which includes Cairo's two main attractions, your guide and driver will pick you up and drop you off at your hotel.

Alexandria, on Egypt's coast, is the country's second most populous city after Cairo. Alexandria, Egypt's capital for one thousand years, stands out among Egyptian cities.
