Start your day after breakfast at your hotel with a visit to the new Grand Egyptian Museum, the largest single Civilization museum in the world. The museum, which is located near the Giza Pyramids, is a remarkable construction made of stone and glass, which is inspired by the surrounding landscape, and contains thousands of valuable artifacts, illustrating the majesty of ancient Egypt.
Continue your tour to the historic Saladin Citadel, one of Cairo's most famous Islamic landmarks. The fortress was constructed by Sultan Salah El-Din in the 12th century as a defense of the city and for many centuries the seat of government. Learn about its amazing architecture and enjoy the panoramic views of Cairo, and its rich Islamic Past.
Following the sightseeing tour, have a refreshing lunch in an Egyptian restaurant before heading back to Cairo's hotel. Take the remainder of the day at your leisure, relaxing and getting ready for the next part of your fabulous Christmas holiday in Egypt.
