In the early hours, you'll be collected from your hotel in Hurghada in a private contemporary vehicle, setting the course for Cairo. There, our expert Egyptologist guide will lead you on a journey through ancient Egyptian wonders, starting with the world-renowned Giza Pyramids, one of the Seven Wonders of the World:

Giza Pyramids Complex:

The revered Giza Pyramids Complex stands as a testament to the radiant heritage of ancient Egyptian civilization, with roots tracing back to 2600 BC, including:

The Great Pyramid of Khufu:

The remarkable Great Pyramid, attributed to King Khufu (2609 BC - 2584 BC), was established in 2570 BC under the guidance of chief vizier Hemiunu. This monumental structure, tall at 147 m, was built using 2.3 million limestone blocks and the skills of 400,000 free artisans. Its stature as the tallest construction in Egypt and its distinction as the sole remaining wonder from the ancient world's seven wonders underscores its significance. Inside, it houses various spaces, including the King’s Chambers and the Grand Hall.

The Great Sphinx:

The enduring protector of Giza, the majestic Sphinx, earned its moniker, "Horus of the Horizon," because of its safeguarding attributes. Sculpted from a massive limestone block, it bears the likeness of King Chephren (2558 – 2532 BC) on its face, merged with a lion's body. The legendary Dream Stele of Thutmose IV is also nestled between its paws, placed there in 1401 BC.

The Valley Temple:

The radiant Valley Temple, a hub for mummification and transformation rituals, was established in 2600 BC. It served members of the 4th dynasty, who were interred within the grand pyramids of Giza.

Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, then continue your 2 days tour to Cairo from Hurghada, visiting the Saqqara Pyramid.

Saqqara Step Pyramid:

The age-old Saqqara step pyramid marked the dawn of pyramid building as one of the earliest monumental stone structures. Originating from the time of King Djoser (2649 BC - 2611 BC) in the 27th century B.C., this architectural marvel comprises six layered tiers, culminating at a height of 62m. The visionary behind its design was the renowned Imhotep.

Finally, we will drive you to check in a 5-star hotel and overnight in Cairo.

Then, continue the 2-day tour to Cairo from Hurghada to Salah El Din Citadel.

Salah El Din Citadel:

Erected between 1176 and 1182 AD, the formidable Cairo Citadel stands prominently at Cairo's highest point, guarding the city and cementing its status as Cairo's central core. This architectural wonder encapsulates the grandeur and artistry of the golden Islamic era. The Citadel houses various captivating museums, fortresses, and mosques within its walls.

Mohammed Ali Mosque:

The Mohamed Ali Mosque, a symbol of autonomy and elegance, was constructed between 1830 and 1848 AD, epitomizing the essence of Ottoman architecture. Often referred to as the "Alabaster Mosque", its pristine white walls are crafted from pure alabaster sourced from the renowned pyramids of Giza.

During your 2-day tour to Cairo from Hurghada, pause for a delicious lunch at a high-quality restaurant, and then explore AL Muizz Street.

AL Muizz Street:

Constructed in the 10th century AD during the Fatimid era, Al-Muizz Street shines as a cultural beacon in the heart of historic Cairo. Originally the central avenue of the capital, it epitomizes Egypt's resplendent Islamic period. This expansive maze is lined with ancient residences that have been transformed into museums and art exhibitions.

Khan El Khalili Bazaar:

Serving as Cairo's prime shopping hub, the illustrious Khan El-Khalili Bazaar stands out as a vast trading nexus built between 1382 and 1389 AD during the Mamluk era.
