All about the trip
In the early morning you will be picked up by our representative from your hotel in Alexandria, and then transferred to Cairo where you will be met and transferred to discover the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus. Then proceed to visit the Great Sphinx, having the head of a pharaoh with a lion’s body, which dates from the time of Chephren; the tour also includes a visit to the Valley Temple, which belongs to the Pyramids of Chephren.
Proceed to have your lunch at a local restaurant in Cairo. Then you will visit the Egyptian Museum which features artifacts from the pharaonic period. The museum displays a rare collection of 5000 years of art which is considered the largest and the most precious collection of Egyptian art in the world. Over 250 000 genuine artifacts are presented, including an exhibit dedicated to Tutankhamen collection of treasure, gold, and jewelry which was enclosed in his tomb for over 3 500 years before it was discovered in 1920 when his tomb was excavated. Move toward Coptic Cairo for a background about the Christian and Jewish heritage through the Hanging Church and Ben Ezra Synagogue. Continue driving to Islamic Cairo, where you will be able to explore Khan El Khalili, Cairo’s old bazaar. Finally, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Alexandria.
