Flight to Cairo
For our Luxor tours to Cairo, we have to disturb your dreams early in the morning. After picking you up from your accommodation in Luxor, we head to the airport to take the fly to Egypts capital. Relax during the flight and enjoy the view from above. After arriving in Cairo, we make our way to the first Cairo sights, the famous
Pyramids of Giza
Located on the outskirts of Cairo, we visit the Pyramids of Giza, one of the landmarks of Cairo and a magnet for many visitors to Egypt. The Cheops Pyramid, the middle Chephren Pyramid and the Pyramid of Mykerinos (the smallest of the 3 Pyramids of Giza) are on the famous Giza Plateau. Together with the Great Sphinx of Giza, the guardian of the Valley Temple of Khafre.
Standing at the foot of the Pyramid, you will wonder how the Egyptians achieved these masterpieces more than 4.000 years ago. Our Egyptologist will explain more about the origins of the pyramids and their predecessors.
We take a break for lunch in a traditional restaurant in Cairo before continuing our program and visiting one of the most informative places about Ancient Egypt, the
Egyptian Museum - Cairo Museum
Coming from Luxor, you will discover a lot in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo that you might have missed while visiting the tombs on Luxor West Bank. Visiting the Cairo Egyptian Museum might overwhelm you. This museum houses a collection of thousands of artefacts found in excavations across Egypt. Some of the most famous items are coming from the Tutankhamun tomb. The filigree gold work of his grave goods is a testimony to the incredible art of goldsmithing in Ancient Egypt. Let yourself be carried away by the variety of impressions into the history of Egypt before we drive to the last point of our Luxor excursion, the world-famous
Khan el-Khalili bazaar
With a visit to the Khan el-Khalili bazaar, we want to enchant you with its oriental flair. The market, known as one of the largest bazaars in the Orient, offers everything your heart desires, from oriental craftsmanship to a huge selection of spices, teas and essential oils. Did you already know that Egypt is one of the main suppliers of essential oils and natural oils for world-famous perfume manufacturers? Stroll with us through the alleys of Khan el-Khalili and be inspired by one or the other beautiful souvenir.
Our Luxor tours to some of the most famous Cairo sights take an end, and we leave Cairo in the direction of the airport to take our flight back to Luxor.
