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.

Great tour, perfect organization, great guide, excellent driver. An all-round successful day in Cairo, if Cairo from Hurghada, then only by plane.

Unique experience:) First and foremost I have to say it was so well organized, we didn't expect it, everything went smoothly starting with the pickup from the hotel to the landing and reception, timed superbly, you had enough time for every single thing. In the big museum you have to say you can spend 1 whole day because it is so huge, but incredible impressions that you do not experience twice. Our trip guide Adam was extremely competent and had a lot of knowledge in store, had studied geology before and you could tell that there was passion behind it, his German was super understandable and was also a good person of heart. If you are at the pyramids, I can only recommend everyone to take the camel ride, which is unique and you need not be afraid of anything, they are very calm safe animals, they are examined every Friday in the hospital by doctors from Switzerland and treated well, according to our guide. A tip before from: If you book the trip you don't need to do a standalone online check in, the PDF you get is quite enough if you show it later at the counter. This is an excursion that you only do once in your life and everything is put together in advance. Gladly again 🥰

Fahmi was a fantastic tour guide! It was a busy day packed with amazing experiences- my husband and I had a great time. Worth every penny.

Had a great time with Fahmi. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and takes great pictures. I would recommend this tour to people looking to do a day trip to Cairo. Be sure to bring some extra money for tips. I’m not sure if the old museum option is available because I was asked to switch to the GEM to and pay the difference to stick with the tour group. I do not regret this choice (the GEM was great) but think it is worth noting.

Everything was well organised, drivers arrived on-time and our guide Fahmy was brilliant. Very knowledgeable and passionate about Egyptian history. Communication from BTE was through WhatsApp and was great, confirming arrangements the day before. They also checked-in during the day to see if everything was ok, and afterwards for feedback. Flights from Hurghada were through CairoAir, and were adequate and comfortable. Our driver in Cairo made us feel really safe, despite the chaotic traffic. We did the Nile trip and Camel ride at the Pyramids. If considering the latter or the horse ride, please be aware that animal welfare standards will be different to your home country. Hopefully this is something that can be addressed by the Egyptian Authorities and isn't a reflection on BTE. Ths trip we booked gave us 3 hours in Giza and 3 hours at the GEM. Fahmy did his best to give us lots of information at the GEM, before giving us some free time. However, given its size you could easily have spent a day there. So if you want to see all of what the GEM has to offer, I would consider the 2 day trip, which I believe BTE offer. Overall though, we had a great day and it's hard to fault BTE for their services, so I would highly recommend.

We were very early in Cairo and after a city tour we were able to get to the pyramids early. In the afternoon the GEM was hot and in the evening a boat tour on the Nile. Everything was super organized. Our guide Adam imparted an incredible amount of knowledge in fluent German. We were really impressed. The tour is highly recommended.
