Full-Day from Luxor & Overnight in Cairo

With a day dedicated to pounding on Egypt's ancient and modern center stage, this tour begins in Luxor, where you will have an overnight stay in Cairo. Your morning will begin with a flight from Luxor to Cairo, so your guide will be there to meet you as you exit the plane and take you immediately to the country's main landmarks. Your time will begin in the shadow of the huge Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx; with amazement, the monuments inspire wonder due to their size, alignment, and exact purpose. Considerations will be given about the pharaohs who fashioned these monuments from history as they roam the entire complex, including the Valley Temple.

Continuing the wonders, there will be a visit to the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir. The museum is home to many artifacts, among which are the treasures of King Tutankhamun. Your guide will offer you inside information on the highlights of the museum, explaining the stories behind mummies, statues, jewelry, and ancient manuscripts. Time and interests permitting, wander through the buzzing Khan El Khalili market or venture into the Islamic and Coptic quarters of Cairo for a culture overdose.

Late evening, after this all-day discovery experience in Egypt, you will check into your comfortable hotel accommodation in Cairo, allowing enough time for some relaxation to soak in the magic of the city at night. The night will contrast modernism with the magical aura of the ancients, with dinner at a local restaurant or relaxing with a Nile View. After breakfast the next morning, you will be taken to the airport for your return flight to Luxor.
