Alexandria Port Shore Excursion Pyramids and GEM and Egyptologist

Описание

Step off your cruise ship in Alexandria and stand at the foot of the Great Pyramid by lunchtime. This shore excursion gets you to Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum, then back to your ship with hours to spare, with a small group of fellow cruise passengers. Your licensed Egyptologist meets you at the port with an air-conditioned vehicle. You travel to the Giza Plateau, where you'll stand at the base of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, see the Sphinx up close, and hear the real history behind 2.3 million stone blocks. Then on to the brand-new Grand Egyptian Museum, where King Tutankhamun's complete treasures are shown together for the first time. Then a comfortable transfer back to your ship, with at least 2 hours of buffer before sail-away. Up to 16 travelers per departure, so you get personal attention from your Egyptologist at a friendly per-person price. Booking as a family or group of friends? You may have the tour to yourselves on quieter dates.

Что вы увидите

1. The Pyramids Of Giza
   2 часа

   You arrive at the Giza Plateau within 2.5 hours of leaving Alexandria Port. Your Egyptologist walks you to the base of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, explains how 2.3 million stone blocks ended up here, and shares what the latest research actually shows about how it was built. You spend time at the panoramic view point for clear photos of all three Pyramids together. Then down to the Sphinx, where your guide explains the real theories about its age and purpose. Optional add-ons: entering inside the Great Pyramid, a camel ride for photos.

2. Grand Egyptian Museum
   2 часа

   You continue to the Grand Egyptian Museum, the largest archaeological museum ever built. Your guide walks you through the soaring atrium past the towering statue of Ramses II, up the Grand Staircase lined with royal monuments, and into the Tutankhamun galleries where his complete collection is shown together for the first time in history. You won't rush. Linger at the gold mask as long as you want, hear the stories behind the chariots, the throne, and the canopic shrines from someone who's studied them.
