After enjoying a delicious breakfast at the hotel, you'll be prepared to meet your private, licensed tour guide in the lobby to begin your trip to the Giza Pyramids. On the way to the Giza Necropolis, your Egyptologist tour guide will provide you with a historical overview of Egypt. The Pyramid of King Cheops, which was erected by the king during his reign 4500 years ago, is visible when you reach the Giza plateau. Huge structures that served as burial tombs for Egyptian kings and rulers were a common feature of the time of the pyramids.
The hike leads to the higher plateau, where you can see the second pyramid of King Chephren, the Giza plateau, and the burial pyramids of King Mycerinus. while having a great opportunity for a camel riding tour in Giza Pyramids (optional excursion) and your Bedouin guide will capture breathtaking photos for you while holding the pyramid between your hands. You will visit the Valley Temple, where the mummification process of the king took place, and you will see the famous figure of a man-headed lion known worldwide as the Great Sphinx, which was thought to be carved for King Chephren himself.
The Egyptian Museum contains the largest collection of Egyptian artifacts, and the structure itself is regarded as a monument due to its more than 200-year-old construction. However, the exhibits that were discovered in the early 1900s for the golden king Tutankhamun are the most fascinating. A sizable sarcophagus, chairs, jewelry, and the golden mask of the child king are all included in the collection of golden objects.
You'll be transferred to Old Cairo, built on the ruins of the Roman fortress of Babylon. Some spots were blessed by the Holy Family, including the Hanging Church of the Holy Virgin Mary, the Church of Saint Sergius, and the Synagogue of Ben Ezra. Enjoy lunch at a high-quality restaurant during or after your Cairo trip. Then you will be transferred back to your hotel or if you would like to book one of our night excursions in Cairo like the Cairo by-night tour of an entertaining Nile cruise dinner in Cairo for 2 hours.
