Start your day with breakfast at the hotel, before venturing out for a guided tour to one of the seven wonders of the world - the Pyramids of Giza. Make sure to visit the Cheops Pyramid, as its interior burial chambers are open for visits by the public. Not far from the Pyramids, you will also visit the Great Sphinx of Giza. This unforgettable statue combines the head of a Pharaoh with a lion's body.

Afterwards, continue the tour at the Egyptian Museum. The museum exhibits over 120,000 objects ranging from the pre-historic era to the Greco Roman period. Marvel at wonderous artefacts, as you discover the museums' various statues, jewels, and Tutankhamen treasures.

Cairo - Alexandria. After breakfast, you'll embark for Alexandria where a guided tour awaits.

Our first stop - the Pompey's Column - stands thirty meters tall and is crafted from Aswan pink granite. While here, we will also visit the entrance of the Kom el-Shoqafa Catacombs. Perched atop a hill, these catacombs were discovered by chance in the early 20th century.

Next stop is the Montaza Gardens, a sprawling 150-hectare park surrounding the palace of Khedive Abbas. Admire the captivating architecture as you stroll through the gardens or relax on the sandy beaches.

Then, visit the Alexandrina Bibliotheca - the New Library of Alexandria. Dedicated to reviving the spirit of the original Bibliotheca Alexandrina, this institution encompasses 13 different departments. Beyond being a library, it serves as the hub for various international and regional networks.
