Itinerary

Day 1 - Cairo

Welcome to Egypt and the start of your city stay! Arrival Cairo and included transfer to your hotel. The remainder of today is at your leisure to relax or explore Cairo your way. Consider sailing on a traditional felucca on the Nile at sunset, or the sound and light show this evening (booked and paid for locally)

Overnight:Cairo
Day 2 - Pyramids & the Egyptian Museum

This morning enjoy a guided tour of the legendary Pyramids of Giza and the iconic Sphinx. Sole survivors from the ancient Greek-listed Seven Wonders of the World, the pyramids are the planet’s oldest tourist attraction! Gaze in awe at Cheops (Khufu) - the largest of the three great pyramids. Constructed from over 2.5 million limestone blocks it is thought to have taken more than 20 years to construct. Whilst here, you can opt to enter the inside one of the pyramids, subject to opening. Not built for the purpose of accommodating curious travellers, a visit inside one of the pyramids is hot, humid and not recommended for those that are claustrophobic! For a real Arabian experience, perhaps opt to hire a camel for a trot across the sands of Giza and grab that iconic photo of the 3 pyramids (your guide can help you arrange this locally).

Next stop is the Egyptian Museum, which is home to the famous treasures of King Tutankhamun. Here you can see a vast collection of statues, jewellery, and sarcophagi. Among the museum's treasures are several well-preserved mummies, including those of Yuya and Thuyu, King Tutankhamun’s great-grandparents, as well as many other royal and non-royal figures. Some of the mummies on display are so well preserved that you can still see details like hair, fingernails, and even the smooth, darkened skin.

This evening consider heading out to dinner at one of the restaurants that offer fantastic views of Cairo and the Nile. Ask your guide for some recommendations!

Please note: If you would like to visit the Grand Museum instead of the Egyptian Museum, this can be arranged. Please let us know at time of booking.

Overnight:Cairo
Meals:Breakfast
Day 3 - Explore or relax

Free day to enjoy Cairo your way. Perhaps enjoy an optional Cairo city tour or a visit to the first pyramid ever built - Zhoser’s Step Pyramid at Saqqara. You could also head over to National Museum of Egyptian Civilization to visit the fascinating Royal Mummies' Hall, where the mummies of ancient Egyptian kings and queens are on display. If you already have something in mind that you would like to pre book, let your consultant know so we can arrange this in advance.

Overnight:Cairo
Meals:Breakfast

We love the tour of 'Pyramids ,and Sphinx and the Egyptian Museum. I did like that it was only me and my son on the Tour.

Cairo city stay - this tour was strange. Obviously seeing the pyramids was neat but not much else is included. Sending someone to the airport to get me through security seemed unnecessary.

We loved our Cairo tour. We felt well looked after by Zidayn our On the Go representative. Nash our Tour Guide was exceptional, highly knowledgeable and approachable. We really appreciated Nash’s flexibility in arranging activities to meet our needs and interests. Our driver was also amazing.

Tour guides were amazing!! Zeidan was great at getting through airport security on arrival and when leaving… he was also a great negotiator at the Khan el-Khalili Bazaar. Nash was very informative about the pyramids and in the museums. Both were very professional, respectful and friendly. Perfect gentlemen as was the driver Mahmou. I had a great time and loved every minute.

I had a great time!! My tour guides Sherif and Amon were very helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you!
