Itinerary
Start early with a pick-up from Sokhna Port by the guide and private driver. You will have plenty of time to soak in the scenery on this two-hour drive through the Eastern Desert to Egypt's busy capital — Cairo.
The first stop is the Grand Egyptian Museum (subject to its opening), a modern facility located near the Giza Plateau. The magnificent galleries showcase ancient Egyptian civilization from the Pre-Dynastic period to the Greco-Roman era. Here, you can view the treasures of King Tutankhamun, which were fully restored in a modern environment that amplifies Egypt's grandeur.
Then onward to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC). Unlike typical museums, NMEC traces the full historical journey of Egypt — from its ancient beginnings to modern days. The main attraction would be the Royal Mummies Hall, where some of Egypt's mightiest rulers, like Ramses II and Queen Hatshepsut, are held captive for eternity.
Enjoy lunch at a pleasant local restaurant in a beautiful setting, watching the Nile or lively Cairo streets, while enjoying authentic Egyptian cuisine.
In the afternoon, whether for true sightseeing or more photo stops, take a short drive by spots such as Cairo Tower or Tahrir Square.
Arrive back at Sokhna Port by early evening, after a full day of exploration and cultural immersion.
