A Private Cairo Day Tour from Sokhna Port

Early in the morning, a representative from Cairo Top Tours will meet you at Sokhna Port to begin your unforgettable Egypt shore excursion. Your private guide and driver will be waiting outside to start your Cairo day tour from Sokhna Port, heading in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle toward Cairo.

Your Sokhna shore excursion begins with a visit to one of the most captivating sights on the globe: the Pyramids of Giza; Khufu, Khafra, and Menkaure. These magnificent monuments are by far the most important and indeed the most famous of the ancient Seven Wonders of the World. Nearby stands the majestic Great Sphinx, the world's tallest monolithic statue; a lion's body and a pharaoh's head: the symbol of might and wisdom. You will get to enjoy some camel riding around the pyramids, and, as optional activities, you may enter one of the pyramids or have an exhilarating quad bike ride in the Giza desert.

After the visit to the area of Pyramids, the next stop on the tour will be the world-famous Grand Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square, home to thousands of ancient artifacts. Your guide will lead you through the highlights of the museum, including those of the famous treasures of King Tutankhamun, a royal collection of gold, jewellery, and items, all with a story to tell.

Continue your Cairo tour from Sokhna Port with a visit to the majestic Citadel of Saladin, counted among the topmost sights in Cairo. Explore the grand Mohamed Ali Mosque, where stunning Ottoman architecture and panoramic city views await.

Afterwards, the sumptuous lunch will be served in a local restaurant, where Bills cuisine is served with a local touch. Then, for the spiritual enrichment of your Egypt tour, you will visit Old Cairo, where you will explore the Hanging Church, other ancient churches, and the Coptic Museum.

Your Egypt shore excursion continues to the Islamic Cairo for visits to some of Egypt’s most famous mosques, including Al-Hussein Mosque and Al-Azhar Mosque, before drifting through the vibrant stalls of Khan El Khalili Bazaar, the largest open market in the land.

Return to the Giza Pyramids at sunset to feast upon the spectacular Sound and Light Show. The magnificent show narrates the story of the dawn of Egyptian civilization, the construction of pyramids as funerary tombs, and the stories of kings and the mighty Sphinx.
