11 Day Tour to Cairo, Desert, Aswan, Luxor, and Hurghada

After having breakfast at the hotel, you will go with the tour guide to experience a wonderful trip to two places that are completely different in terms of history and culture, allowing you to experience two different trips in one day.

Today's visits will begin with the most important royal tomb known to humanity, the Great Pyramid, which is considered one of the most important tourist attractions in Giza and perhaps for some the most important tourist attraction in Egypt. 

When you come here, you will be amazed by its size. To this day, no one knows how the pharaohs built it, which has led to rumors that those who built the pyramids were not human. However, there is more than enough evidence that the pyramids were built by the pharaohs of the Old Kingdom.

There has been much controversy surrounding the Great Sphinx, but historical evidence has proven that it was built by Khafre, just like the second pyramid. And this pyramid, although smaller than his father's pyramid, appears to be slightly taller because it was built on a group of small hills, which made its height reach more than 140 meters, and the top of the pyramid was destroyed by erosion and weathering over the ages, but despite all that, the pyramids remain one of the greatest structures in history.

After that, you will go to one of Cairo's wonderful restaurants to enjoy a delicious lunch before embarking on a fantastic tour of Coptic Cairo.

You will travel back in time to the Coptic era when Christianity spread throughout the region. You will see many ancient churches dating back centuries, such as the Hanging Church, which was built on an ancient Roman fort called Babylon. 

This place was once an ideal location for a fort, as it was situated between the desert to the east and the Nile to the west, making it a unique location close to the ancient capital of Egypt, Fustat.

There are many other churches of religious significance, as the Holy Family came to this area in ancient times and lived here during their stay. In addition to the churches, there is also the Coptic Museum and a synagogue, as well as some mosques nearby, making it an area with a fascinating mix of cultures that will impress you.

Have a nice breakfast and be ready to explore once more the mystical beauty of the White Land, a fantasy jewel that is found only in the surreal landscape of the White Desert.

It is a huge sterile territory creating an impression of silence and a full lack of life, and attracting not only adventurous tourists but also landscape photographers seeking the rare and memorable landscapes. 

See this action as the sun moves through the sky the casting shadows and move over the chalks of rocks and creating an alternately changing and very magical landscape.

Reaching this deserted area by driving in the black desert, either with a guide-led tour or by a private vehicle, there are no formal transportation points of service to the outside world in this isolated location, especially south of Bawiti, the main settlement of the Bahariya Oasis. 

Then you will try another type of food at the desert camping. 

This is the best time to camp in the open skies of the White Desert. Take in the fresh desert air on a beautiful sunset that renders the rocks warm colours. Then spend a pleasant time at a dinner with gourmet cooking in the heart of this memorable scenery.

It is also a place where you can take many wonderful pictures.

It also includes the Roman period, and some additions made both by Augustus and by Tiberius.

This temple was rich in antiquities and obelisks, such as the two obelisks that were transferred to England in the last century. 

On the walls of this temple, there are many drawings and inscriptions that depict Isis and Osiris, as well as their famous story of bringing Osiris back to life, which is considered one of the most remarkable love stories in history. 

So, it is quite clear that this temple is one of the greatest and most magnificent tourist sights in Egypt.

The tour guide will then take you back to a time closer to the construction of Philae Temple, one of Egypt's most recent achievements. The High Dam was a significant factor in Egypt's industrial history, as it was built to provide clean energy and prevent flooding. It cost the country a lot of money, but thanks to the assistance of the Soviet Union, one of the most important and largest industrial projects in the world was built, making it a prime tourist attraction in Egypt.

 It was built during the Ptolemaic era, the beginning of which is traced to 237 BC through the reign of king Ptolemaios III, and the completion of which occurred during 57 BC through the rule of Ptolemaios XII.

The temple is referred to the cult of the god whose sky is the god Horus, the god of Horus. It is considered to be the second-largest temple in Egypt after the temple of Karnak in both size and preservation. Its huge walls are adorned with reliefs which show the history of the fight of Horus with his uncle Set, which are crucial in religious and cultural customs.
