Cairo and El Ain Sokhna Budget Tour

After enjoying a delicious breakfast at your hotel, your tour guide will be waiting for you to take you on your first tour in Giza.

The trip will begin with a visit to the pyramids, which some believe to be only three pyramids, but, there are more than 100 pyramids in Egypt, and it was an ancient tradition that began in the ancient Egyptian state and continued for many years thereafter. 

We have a lot of the pyramids of Giza. For example, the Great Pyramid of Khufu is classified as one of the wonders of the world, which led many to attribute the construction of the pyramids to them. Rumors spread that slaves built the pyramids, but the opposite was true because the ancient Egyptians' homes were close to the pyramid construction site, which indicates that they worked of their own free will, which indicates that it was the Egyptians who built the pyramids. 

After that, you will go to a nearby area that also has pyramids, but what distinguishes it is the step pyramid, which is classified as the first Pharaonic tomb in the form of a pyramid in history, meaning that it was the first attempt to build a pyramid in history by the special minister of King Imhotep, who is considered a skilled engineer and left us a masterpiece in the history of Egypt.

The idea of building pyramids is based on a religious belief that Egyptians would go to the afterlife with all their precious belongings. Therefore, their main concern was how to build a tomb that would preserve their treasures for the afterlife, which led to the idea of pyramids as large tombs that would protect their bodies from theft. 

After having lunch at one of the wonderful restaurants in Cairo or Giza, you will go on your last visit of the day to the city of Memphis

In the beginning, there were two separate kingdoms in the south and north until King Menes united them to establish the first Egyptian dynasty in history. However, the strange thing about his death is that it is said that he was killed by a hippopotamus, even though this king was one of the greatest kings in Egyptian history. 

After your delicious breakfast in the hotel, your tour guide will take you on a spectacular Cairo city tour, beginning with the Islamic and Coptic Cairo.

At the beginning of today's visits, you will visit Islamic Cairo, where there are many wonderful Islamic monuments such as the Citadel of Saladin, which was built by Saladin, the founder of the Ayyubid dynasty, which was considered one of the strongest Islamic kingdoms that ruled Egypt, as Saladin's goal was to secure his state from all external threats.

The citadel has many wonderful tourist attractions that were not only built during the era of Saladin, but also during different eras, such as the Muhammad Ali Mosque, which was built from two sections: an eastern section for prayer and a western section with a large fountain used to prepare for prayer. There is also a minaret at the top of the mosque, built in the Turkish style, which was designed by Muhammad Ali, who also constructed an iron gate that was supposed to be the main gate of the castle due to its large size, allowing large objects and equipment to enter easily, as the main purpose of the castle was to protect the state from anyone entering the capital, which is why it was built on top of the mountain.

After that, you will go to one of the wonderful markets in Egypt, Khan Al-Khalili, which stretches from Al-Moez Street to Al-Hussein. It is filled with shops alongside mosques of various shapes and from different eras, giving the place a wonderful appearance.

After visiting Islamic Cairo, you will go to lunch at one of Cairo's wonderful restaurants. 

Then you will go to Coptic Cairo, or as they call it, Old Cairo, which has many ancient churches dating back centuries, such as the Hanging Church, the Church of Saint Sergius, and the Church of St. George, after whom the area is named. The importance of this area lies in the fact that it bears witness to the Christian presence in Egypt throughout history. 

After breakfast, a company representative will take you to Ain Sokhna to spend a wonderful day on one of its beaches, where you can try many exciting activities such as diving and water skiing, and experience many other wonderful things. At the end of the day, you will have lunch and go to your hotel in Ain Sokhna before the last day of our tour.

Wake up, have your breakfast and leave your hotel to enjoy an adventure that you will never forget. We will take you to the beautiful seaside resort, and before you drive away in Cairo, you will have an opportunity to rest on the clean beach, where you can find a meeting point of the crystal-clear water and golden sands. Then you will enjoy lunch at one of the beach restaurants and have a tasty grilled fish with a view of the Gulf of Suez. Spend your afternoons with water activities or walk by the coastline, or even just lying in the sun. When the day is coming to an end, we shall drive you back to Cairo and drop you anywhere you want to be, so it is the most appropriate closure to your beach holiday.
