After visiting the Pyramids of Giza, visit the Great Sphinx, by far the largest surviving sphinx. It consists of a human head on the body of a lion. The Sphinx was carved from the remains of a limestone hill that served as a quarry for the Great Pyramid of Cheops. Felucca cruise on the Nile is available for a fee.
Around 4am you will be picked up from your hotel. Upon arrival in Cairo, you will be met by your guide who will accompany you throughout the tour.
Meet your Egyptology tour guide at the museum to begin your day. Visit the state-of-the-art Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the world's largest archaeological museum with over 100,000 artifacts, or the Ancient Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. Select your preferred museum during the booking process.

The further course of the excursion takes you to the great pyramids of Cheops, Chephren and Mykerinus. The tour of the pyramids ends at the Sphinx and the temple surrounding it. At the end of the day, if time permits, you will have the opportunity to go shopping before embarking on the return journey to Hurghada.
If the return flight from Cairo is late in the evening, we will spend some time visiting the London of the Middle Ages (Khan el Klalili market), Old Cairo, recently added to the UNESCO World Heritage list, or Cairo Festival City, an extra-large shopping mall (air-conditioned), one of the largest in the Middle East. Full of the most famous international brands, restaurants, cafes and a huge colorful dancing fountain, where you will be drawn to Cairo's chic, modern nightlife.
Upon arrival at the airport, you will be transferred to your hotel in an air-conditioned car.
If we have time, we can make two characteristic visits to the Papyrus Museum and the Essential Oil Factory. These two attractions will familiarize you with the ancient Egyptian techniques of making papyrus and essences. These two interesting visits will increase your knowledge of daily life in ancient Egypt and will also be helpful to the Egyptian farmers who work in these sectors and preserve these very old handicrafts from ancient Egypt. (These visits depend on the time remaining.)
Afterwards, your mind needs some rest. You can, for example, relax with a boat trip on the Nile and discover Cairo from the water.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

What a fantastic day we had! Despite it being a long way, the day flew by! From the operators communication ensuring that we knew exactly what was happening to the fabulous Famhe who ensured we had the best day! Not only a brilliant guide but a great photographer as well!! We really loved the GEM museum as well, despite being exhausted we were dropped back to our hotel extremely happy!

A first class excursion from start to finish. A long day so glad we decided to fly! An error was made in name on a boarding pass and the admin sorted it and kept in contact. Food was nice on trip. Fahme the guide has some authority having worked in Egyptian antiquities - he has us treated like VIP’s . Would recommend booking this rather than through the hotel.

Both our guide and driver were both clearly very experienced and made navigating the day easy. Going to the pyramids first meant that it was not as hot or busy which was great. We were lucky enough to visit the new museum and had time to explore freely. The day was rather long and it would have been great if there was an option to choose an earlier flight home. Overall a good day experiencing Cairo!

Our tour was fantastic, our guide Fahmy and our driver took excellent care of us. The day was long but we crammed in so much and learnt a huge amount. Our guide was kind, funny and protective so we felt very safe and well looked after. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience 💗

A fabulous trip! Yes it is a long day but totally worth it and so informative Great communication from the start, pick up from hotel at 3:20am was on time. It is a little confusing when you get to Sharm airport as there are multiple flights to Cairo all leaving at the same time or within 5 minutes of each other so you need to be aware of what’s going on so you don’t miss the flight. The flight was quick and pleasant, you’re in the air about 20/25 minutes before descent starts. Our tour guide Ahmad was very welcoming and knowledgable, he explained the whole day to us. We went to the pyramids first because the heat would be too much in the afternoon. We started with the optional Camel ride and I would recommend this, it was around 30 minutes, enjoyable and a great viewing spot of all the pyramids together. There is the option to go by horse and cart too. The pyramids themselves are breathtaking and Ahmad gave lots of interesting information to take in. We were early for lunch so our guide took us to an essential oils place. This is an upsell tactic, not that our group bought anything but we welcomed the 30 minute break, to use the bathroom etc Lunch was pleasant, choice for everyone and the food was good. The GEM was incredible but very busy. It is impossible to cover the whole museum in the 2.5 hours allocated but Ahmad showed us all the best and most interesting bits. A reasonably priced gift shop too and lots of eateries and cafes. Our final stop was the optional boat trip on the Nile. At this point everyone was very tired but it was a great experience still. We landed back in Sharm at 10:00pm and back at our hotel for 10:30pm. Long day in total but an amazing trip!

Arrangements for pickup were all confirmed via WhatsApp the day before and this worked well. Our guide, Fahme, was friendly and knowledgeable. We had sufficient time at the pyramids to ride the camels/horse and carriage to the observation point to take pictures, see inside 2 of the tombs and then walk to the Sphinx. All well explained. Lunch was good with allergies catered for. Unfortunately there was a foreign dignatory visiting the GEM so all the roads and entrance were closed for a while which meant our time was limited there. It was also very crowded and the most popular attractions were difficult to get close to because of the queue of people taking selfies! But it's only just opened so, hopefully, that will improve. There was some confusion when we landed at Hurghada about which taxi was taking us back to the hotel but it was resolved after a short delay. Overall it was a well-organised, busy, enjoyable bucket-list day!

A very intense day but clearly worth it! Everything is beautiful and very interesting. Our guide Rafa was very friendly, very interesting considering his knowledge and passionate about his job. To end the day in style He took us to a café at the lively and authentic Cairo souk! We recommend this excursion 😍

We had such a wonderful time at the Steigenberger Al Dau! The hotel is simply top-notch – everything is very clean, the food is delicious, and the service is truly of a high standard. The whole team is super friendly and always in a good mood. A special thanks to Ali Moustafa from the reception, he was very helpful, speaks excellent German, and made our stay extremely pleasant. We’ll definitely come back!
