Cairo Layover Tour to the Pyramids

Travelers arriving at Cairo International Airport can find a unique and memorable Stopover Transit Tour option. Initially, passengers will travel with comfort to visit the Giza Pyramids before exploring three prime landmarks including King Khufu's Great Pyramid which remains today's last surviving ancient wonder. Visitors to the excursion will explore three of Giza's distinguished examples of stone architecture beginning with Chephren's second-largest pyramid and then moving on to Mycerinus' smallest fascinating structure. A stop at the Valley Temple is included in the tour which served as a platform for the rite of mummification for King Chephren.

An extraordinary experience awaits travelers who choose a camel ride under local Bedouin guidance across the Giza Plateau where they find superb sights that combine pyramid and desert sights. The Egyptian Museum at Tahrir Square holds 120,000 ancient artifacts among which the Tutankhamun collection spent 35 centuries hidden before archaeologist Howard Carter found it in 1922.

From this restaurant, you will have a mesmerizing view of the famous pyramids while enjoying authentic Egyptian dining. They offer walking tours of Cairo's Islamic district when time allows visitors to see ancient walls and gates constructed 1,000 years ago. The day ends at the iconic Khan El Khalili Bazaar, one of the oldest markets in the Middle East.
