Start your day with a delicious buffet breakfast at the hotel, featuring a mix of international and Egyptian cuisine. Your private, English-speaking guide will then take you to the Giza Plateau, where you’ll experience one of the world’s greatest wonders – the Great Pyramid of Giza, built by King Cheops. You'll also visit the pyramids of Chephren and Mycerinus, learning fascinating details about these ancient structures.
Next, visit the Great Sphinx, a massive statue with a human head and a lion’s body, as well as the Valley Temple of King Chephren, where ancient mummification rituals took place.
Enjoy lunch at a top-quality Cairo restaurant before heading to Islamic Cairo. Immerse yourself in the lively markets and sample traditional mint tea at El Fishawy or Layaly Al-Hussein, two of Cairo’s oldest cafés in Khan El Khalili.
Afterward, visit the Egyptian Museum, where your guide will explain the museum's most important artifacts, including treasures from the tomb of the boy king, Tutankhamun, discovered in 1922 in the Valley of the Kings.
Your tour continues in Coptic Cairo, where you’ll explore the Roman fortress of Babylon, the Hanging Church built atop its ancient towers, and the Church of St. Sergius, home to the crypt where the Holy Family stayed. The tour concludes with a visit to the historic Ben Ezra Synagogue.
