15 Days Budget Tour in Egypt

Early in the morning, after breakfast at the hotel, we will have a 2-hour private tour of the Giza Plateau, home of the Great Sphinx and the famous Pyramids of Giza, before the site is opened to the general public. This exclusive access to the plateau is made possible by a special permission issued to Inside Egypt by the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities.

Our first destination will be the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the only remaining example of one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The guards will open exclusively for us the Queen's Chamber and the Subterranean Chamber, which are frequently beyond bounds to the general public. Our next trip will be to the Great Sphinx, where we will this time go inside its prison for another special experience.

After enjoying our visit to the Pyramids of Giza, have a delicious lunch. Then, we will go to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the world’s largest museum dedicated to a single civilization, Ancient Egypt. It’s located near the Giza Pyramids on the Cairo–Alexandria Desert Road in Giza. There are more than 250,000 genuine artefacts on show in addition to an exhibition of Tutankhamun's riches, gold, and jewellery collection, all of which were kept in his tomb for more than 3,500 years.

After which, we'll take you to your hotel for the night.

Our tour guide will pick you up from your accommodation so you may visit Coptic Cairo. Coptic Cairo is a subset of Old Cairo, which also contains the Babylon Fortress, the Hanging Church, and the Greek Church of St. George, as well as a large number of other Coptic churches and historical landmarks. The Holy Family is supposed to have passed through this area and stayed at the Saints Sergius and Bacchus Church site, according to Christian mythology (Abu Serga). Coptic Cairo was a bastion for Christianity in Egypt up to the Islamic era, despite the fact that the majority of the churches' current architecture was built after the Muslim invasion of Egypt in the 7th century.

Ben Ezra Synagogue will be our next stop.

Old Cairo, Egypt, is home to the Ben Ezra Synagogue, sometimes referred to as the Synagogue of the Levantines or the El-Geniza Synagogue. According to local folklore, this is the location where baby Moses was found.
In its genizah, or store chamber, in the 19th century, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Judeo-Arabic secular and religious manuscripts were found from this synagogue. The transfer of the Cairo Geniza collection to the University of Cambridge in Cambridge, England, was started by Solomon Schechter. Currently, it is dispersed throughout several academic institutions.

Following that, we will transport you to your accommodation in Cairo.

We will fly to Luxor in the early morning, where we will join a five-star luxury cruise ship to begin our Nile cruise tour.
Luxor, which was originally known as Thebes, became the capital of Egypt during two separate pharaonic dynasties. Both the ruins of the ancient city and its necropolis are included as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Our first stop in Luxor is the legendary Karnak Temple Complex, the largest temple complex in the entire world.

The Temple of Queen Hatshepsut in Deir el-Bahari, one of Egypt's most distinctive temples, is the next stop on our schedule. Its construction of limestone sets it apart from the majority of the other New Kingdom funeral temples, which were made of sandstone.
