Itinerary of your Private Cairo Tour

Hotel pick-up
You will be picked up from your hotel between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m. The morning is quiet, the air pleasantly cool. After about five to six hours, you will arrive in Cairo. In good spirits, with a thermos of coffee in the car and your first glimpse of the Nile.

Visit to the Pyramids of Giza
The first stop is the most famous: the Pyramids of Giza. Stand at the foot of these millennia-old wonders and feel the grandeur of ancient Egypt. Your guide will tell you about the pharaohs Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure, about the secrets of their construction, and about the stories that continue to fascinate researchers today.

A short walk leads you to the Sphinx, a place where silence is almost palpable. The size, the expression, the myths, a moment that hardly anyone forgets.

Lunch at a local restaurant

After visiting the pyramids, enjoy a traditional lunch at a local restaurant in Cairo. The dishes are freshly prepared, typically Egyptian, and full of flavor. Your guide will tell you more about life in the city and Egyptian cuisine. Simple, warm, and authentic.

Visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum
In the afternoon, you will visit the Grand Egyptian Museum, the modern heart of Egyptian history. Here you will see the world-famous treasures of Tutankhamun in a new, spacious presentation. Your guide will take you through the most important exhibits and explain the stories behind the artifacts that make ancient Egypt so fascinating to this day.

Optional: Khan El Khalili Bazaar
If time allows, visit the famous Khan El Khalili bazaar, a labyrinth of alleyways brimming with color, scent, and craftsmanship. Here you can truly experience the vibrant life of Cairo.
