4.9/5

6 reviews

Explore Cairo in a relaxed and stress-free way with this 2-day tour, where every detail of your transportation and activities is taken care of. Immerse yourself in the city's beauty, history, and culture as you discover its most iconic landmarks.

Day 1

Begin your journey with a scenic drive from your hotel in Hurghada to Cairo, following the picturesque Red Sea coast. Upon arrival in Giza, you will be welcomed by the last remaining wonder of the ancient world – the Great Pyramids. Stand before these monumental tombs, uncover their mysteries, and admire the timeless presence of the Great Sphinx.

Afterwards, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before checking in to your hotel. In the evening, experience a memorable dinner cruise on the Nile, complete with traditional live music, a belly-dancing performance, a Tanoora show, and an open buffet dinner.

Day 2

After breakfast, your day begins with a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) – the world’s largest archaeological museum, home to thousands of remarkable artifacts, including the full treasure collection of King Tutankhamun displayed together for the first time.

Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before continuing to the historic Salah El-Din Citadel, the fortified stronghold that served as the seat of Egypt’s rulers for nearly 700 years and offers spectacular views over Cairo. Weather permitting, round off your Cairo experience with a relaxing felucca sail on the Nile before returning to Hurghada.

Important to know

Extra fees to be paid on-site:

  • Please note that you'll gain access to the pyramids area, but the entrance fees to get inside the pyramids (Cheops, Mykerinos or Kefren) are not included. The tickets available are limited and must be purchased on site, so access is not guaranteed. The adult entrance fee for the Cheops Great Pyramid is around EGP 1500 and EGP 750 for children under 12. The adult entrance fee for Mykerinos or Kefren is around EGP 280 and EGP 140 for children under 12
  • At the museum, personal cameras without flash are allowed for an additional fee, which is currently around EGP 50. Please note that this is subject to change without prior notice

Know in advance:

  • The shared tour option is only available on selected dates. The private tour takes place every day. If you're a solo traveller and want to book a private tour, choose the "Private Tour" option (minimum age is 12 years). The 6-people private group is open to a maximum of 15 participants
  • The tour will be led in English if the minimum number of people for the tour in the other languages is not met
  • If possible, you may want to arrange a take-away breakfast box and late dinner with your hotel reception before the tour date
  • Tour duration and pickup time are subject to change due to operational conditions and your hotel location
  • The Nile felucca tour is subject to weather conditions
  • The Hall of Tutankhamun at the Egyptian Museum (including the Golden Mask and Golden Sarcophagus) will be closed from 20 October 2025 as the collection is being transferred to the new Grand Egyptian Museum. The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, however, remains rich with exceptional treasures, including the mummies and the gilded mummy mask of Yuya and Thuya—among the most spectacular ever found in the Valley of the Kings—remarkable for their extraordinary preservation and lifelike features

Remember to bring:

  • Your passport
  • Cash for any purchases you wish to make
  • Comfortable clothes, a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, your camera, and water
