Cairo, Egypt's capital and largest city, is the ideal location if you want to make the most of your vacation in Egypt. It is a unique tourist destination that blends the beauty of the present with the scent of the past. With the help of our Cairo trip, you will begin your journey in Hurghada, a stunning seaside city with a view of the Red Sea, and travel quickly and comfortably to Cairo, the center of Egyptian civilization, where you can quickly discover the capital's riches.
Through our full-day Tour to Cairo from Hurghada, you will have the opportunity to explore the Pyramids of Giza, which is one of the most famous archaeological sites in Egypt, and includes the pyramids of the kings of the Fourth Dynasty, Khufu, his son Khafre, and his grandson Menkaure, as well as the famous Sphinx. Each of the pyramids of the kings had a group of pyramids, each of which included the pyramids of the queens, a small pyramid considered doctrinal for the king, the Valley Temple, from which an ascending path whose sides are carved with scenes of daily life leads to an upper temple known as the funerary temple, and the priests performed funerary and burial rituals for the deceased king inside these temples. The area formerly housed the boats of Khufu, known as the Sun Boats, which were recently moved to the Great Egyptian Museum when it opened, but the area still retains the wells of these boats. Finally, the area contains mastabas for burying dignitaries and members of the royal family.
You will also enjoy an unforgettable visit to Islamic Cairo, which is also called Cairo al-Moez, historic Cairo, or medieval Cairo, generally referring to the historic areas of Cairo, Egypt, that existed before the modern expansion of the city during the 19th and 20th centuries. In particular, the central parts around the old walled city and the Cairo Citadel.

Our full-day tour of Cairo will begin with a visit to the Egyptian Museum, the oldest archaeological museum in the Middle East and home to the world's biggest collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. Among the museum's unique collections are the funerary collections of Yuya and Tuya, Bosis I, and the treasures of Tanis and the Narmer painting, which, among other priceless artifacts, immortalizes the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under a single king. Along with the Greek and Roman eras, the museum's extensive collection spans the Predynastic era. Beautiful statues of the famous monarchs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure—who constructed the pyramids on the Giza plateau—are also on display at the museum. In addition to a large collection of papyri, sarcophagi, and jewelry that complements the distinctive collection of this museum.
After that, we will continue our journey, heading to Old Cairo or the Alif neighborhood, which is one of Cairo's neighborhoods in the southern region of Cairo. Coptic Cairo, Rawda Island, and other districts are all part of the southern part of Cairo, which is one of the neighborhoods in the city. The Old Cairo neighborhood is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Cairo, and it was previously called “Antique Cairo.” It has many archaeological areas such as the Hanging Church. This is one of Egypt's oldest and most ancient churches; it was built in a suspended structure rather than on concrete or columns.
We cannot skip a visit to Cairo without visiting Khan al-Khalili, one of Cairo's old neighborhoods, which enjoys a great tourist attraction for visitors to Cairo and Egypt in general, characterized by the presence of popular bazaars, stores and restaurants, as well as the large number of tourists and the familiarity of its residents with them. The first thing that catches the eye in the Khan al-Khalili is the mashrabiya facing the street or alley, the water basins and narrow alleys among the crowds of people full of colors, precious stones, gold, and silver, the cafes that carry the stories of all who visited, and the products that smell of old Egypt, an atmosphere that you will not find in any other area other than the Khan, which is what distinguishes it.
We will conclude our tour with a visit to the Pyramids of Giza, an archaeological site located on the Giza Plateau, just outside Cairo, Egypt. It consists of the Great Sphinx, Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure, the three Great Pyramids; an industrial complex; a workers' settlement; and several tombs. Approximately 9 km (5 mi) west of the Nile River, It is located in the Western Desert, 13 kilometers (8 miles) southwest of Cairo's downtown and in the historic city of Giza.
