Budget Tour to Giza Pyramids, the NMEC, and Felucca ride

To begin your fantastic Budget Tour to the Giza Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum, you will meet your private Egyptologist guide at the prearranged time and place in Cairo or Giza.

When you arrive at the site, you will be astounded by the size of the pyramids, especially the great pyramid of King Cheops. Your tour guide will give you a brief introduction about how the pyramids were built, the significance of these enormous structures for the ancient Egyptians, and the connection between the pyramids and the ancient Egyptian religion. You will be transferred to the Giza Necropolis site in a private vehicle with your guide and driver.

Moving down, we will stop by the second pyramid of King Chephren and his son Mycerinus, where you can notice the difference in the size and outer casing. From the high plateau, we will get an amazing perspective of the entire necropolis and a fantastic opportunity to ride camels around the Giza Pyramids.

Then, we'll go to King Khafra's Valley Temple, which was utilized for the mummification process that took place as part of the funerary rituals before the burial of the royal body. King Khafra is thought to have also owned the Great Sphinx.

After that, we will begin the tour of the Egyptian Museum by travelling to the downtown Cairo area, where El-Tahrir Square is located. There, we will enter the Egyptian Museum, which has two floors and houses the most significant artefacts that date back to the pre-dynastic period. As we pass by the old kingdom, middle kingdom, and new kingdom, as well as the Greco-Roman era, you will get a glimpse of each period, When the earliest men of civilization discovered writing in ancient Egypt, they left behind the Palermo Stone and the Rosetta Stone, which preserve extensive evidence of the ancient Egyptian society and also provide the first steps in our comprehension of the ancient Egyptian language.

then As we take a traditional felucca trip down the Nile and experience Cairo from the sea, and have lunch on board, we will spend the day travelling along the same river Cleopatra did so many years before. Watch the sunset over the capital of Egypt before experiencing the exciting nightlife.

 Then you will be transferred back to your hotel after you finish your Cairo trip.
