About this tour
Experience the very best of Egypt's magnificent capital with this comprehensive 3-day Cairo tour package, designed for first-time visitors who want to see all the essential highlights. Stand in awe before the last surviving Wonder of the Ancient World - the Great Pyramid of Giza, built for Pharaoh Khufu around 2580 BC and originally reaching 146 meters into the desert sky. Come face-to-face with the enigmatic Sphinx, guardian of the Giza plateau for over 4,500 years, and explore the revolutionary Grand Egyptian Museum, home to over 100,000 artifacts including Tutankhamun's complete treasure collection. Journey through Islamic Cairo, where medieval streets unchanged since the Fatimid era (969-1171 AD) lead to architectural marvels like the Citadel of Saladin and the alabaster Mohammed Ali Mosque. Lose yourself in the sensory overload of Khan el-Khalili bazaar, where the aroma of spices mingles with the sound of craftsmen at work in workshops that have operated for centuries. Discover Coptic Cairo's Christian heritage in the Hanging Church, built atop Roman fortress towers, and end with a magical felucca sunset sail on the timeless Nile. This Egypt tour package includes expert Egyptologist guides who bring ancient stories to life, comfortable air-conditioned transportation, and carefully selected accommodations for an unforgettable Cairo experience.

Wander through the atmospheric Muizz Street and haggle for treasures in the historic Khan el-Khalili bazaar, Cairo's commercial heart for over 600 years.
Day 3: Coptic Cairo & Nile Sunset
Explore Old Cairo's Christian quarter, visiting the 7th-century Hanging Church suspended above Roman fortress ruins and the ancient Ben Ezra Synagogue.
