When you arrive at the Giza plateau you will stand on the foot of the Great Pyramid of King Cheops which was built by the king during his reign 4500 years ago thanks to the prosperity Egypt achieved during that era, which is known as the golden era or the Pyramids building period that was characterized by gigantic structures built for the kings and rulers of Egypt to serve as burial tombs and also played a major role in enduring the pharaoh's name throughout history.

Your Cairo day tours will be resumed as you will see the biggest collection of Egyptian antiquities inside the Egyptian Museum in the heart of Cairo downtown, the building itself is considered a monument for being built more than 200 years ago, and you will witness an amazing mixture of artifacts that date back to different epochs from the predynastic period passing by the early times during the old kingdom, the middle kingdom and the new kingdom which is characterized by the presence of the most famous pharaohs like King Ramses II, Tutankhamen, and Queen Hatshepsut.

Egypt Tours FAQ

Read top Egypt tours FAQs

Cairo is one of the largest cities in Africa. You can't just walk around in 3 days. You need at least a week to be able to fully enjoy it. But the most important places and tourist attractions can be listed as follows. 
The pyramids of Giza, the Egyptian Museum, the cemetery of Saqqara, the castle of Saladin, Al-Mu'izz Street, and The Hanging Church.

  Depending on the particular travel package and personal tastes, the primary sites included in a three-day itinerary for Egypt may change. Nonetheless, a few well-liked sights that are frequently mentioned include:
Cairo: See the Egyptian Museum, the Sphinx, the Pyramids of Giza, and the city's ancient Islamic and Coptic neighborhoods. 
Luxor: Seeing the Valley of the Kings, the Karnak Temple Complex, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and other sites within the ancient Thebes city. 
Aswan: Riding a boat on the Nile River, exploring the Nubian Village, learning about the High Dam, and going to the Philae Temple. 

 To ensure everything goes according to plan, a tour manager or tour leader organizes and leads a group of vacationers on a tour, either inside the UK or overseas. The days-long or weeks-long journey is typically conducted by a coach but occasionally includes travel by train, aircraft, or boat.

 

The city of Thebes was very important in ancient Egypt because it was where the god Amon was worshipped. It was the main city during a time when Egypt was very powerful. The temples and palaces in Karnak and Luxor, as well as the tombs in the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens, show how advanced Egyptian civilization was at that time.
