If you are on a cruise through Sokhna Port in Egypt, you get the opportunity to experience Cairo in one wonderful day. The trip from Port Said to Cairo combines the joy of the ancient world with the experience of the Nile River. Get a close-up view of the Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx, take a somewhat special camel ride beside the pyramids, and finish with a relaxing Felucca sail down the Nile.
As soon as you step off your ship at Sokhna Port, a Cairo Top Tours representative will be waiting to greet you, thus beginning your tour. You will then drive in a private air-conditioned vehicle, directly towards Cairo. The drive in itself is an experience, giving you great snapshots of Egypt's landscapes as you move from the Red Sea coast to the capital.
A visit to Egypt cannot be considered complete until the Giza Plateau is visited. Here is where you see the only surviving ancient wonder-Daaro Great Pyramid of Khufu, featuring alongside the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure. Your professional Egyptologist will make history come alive by narrating those fascinating stories of kings, burial rituals, and the secret to pyramid construction. Standing right there near the Great Sphinx of Giza is yet another gracious moment-of-connection that takes the visitor 4,500 years into history.
A one-hour camel ride over the desert sand proves to be an even more unforgettable experience with the Pyramids as your backdrop. This trip is not about taking a thousand photos; it is about embracing the old spirit and picturing what the old-time travelers encountered as they traveled across the desert.
Put forth your second chapter of an adventure on one of the most famous rivers of the world. Sail traditionally on a Felucca for a calm one hour on the Nile.
