Itinerary

Step into the heart of ancient Egypt with the "Pyramid City - 4 Days" trip. Perfect for travelers seeking a short, easy-paced cultural break, this self-guided tour takes you from the bustling streets of Cairo to the legendary pyramids of Giza. Delve into King Tutankhamun’s treasures, view mummies of mighty pharaohs, and relax each evening in a deluxe downtown hotel. The blend of fascinating history and luxurious comfort makes this tour package unique—an ideal long weekend for those wanting to balance sightseeing with relaxation in one of the world’s most storied cities.

day 1 - Welcome to Egypt!

Welcome to Egypt and the start of your city stay! Arrival Cairo and included transfer to your 5 star hotel. The remainder of today is at your leisure to relax or explore Cairo your way. Consider sailing on a traditional felucca on the Nile at sunset, or the sound and light show this evening.

OverNight:Cairo

day 2 - Pyramids & Grand Egyptian Museum

Enjoy a guided tour of the famous pyramids and iconic Sphinx at Giza Plateau this morning. Sole survivors from the ancient Greek-listed Seven Wonders of the World, the pyramids are the planet’s oldest tourist attraction! Gaze in awe at Cheops (Khufu) - the largest of the three great pyramids. Constructed from over 2.5 million limestone blocks it is thought to have taken more than 20 years to construct. Whilst here, you can opt to enter the inside one of the pyramids, subject to opening. Not built for the purpose of accommodating curious travellers, a visit inside one of the pyramids is hot, humid and not recommended for those that are claustrophobic – but you do feel a bit like Indiana Jones! For a real Arabian experience, perhaps opt to hire a camel for a trot across the sands of Giza.

Next stop is the Grand Egyptian Museum, the world’s largest archaeological museum dedicated to a single civilisation. Its vast collection spans more than 100,000 artefacts, including the colossal statue of Ramses II and the complete treasures of Tutankhamun — from his chariots and jewellery to his famed golden mask — all displayed in beautifully curated galleries that bring ancient Egypt to life.

Returning to your hotel, spend the evening at leisure. We recommend going for dinner at one of the restaurants that offer fantastic views of the city and the Nile. Speak with your guide for their personal recommendations.

Meals:1 Breakfast

OverNight:Cairo

day 3 - Discover Cairo - Your own way

A free day to enjoy Cairo your own way. Consider relaxing by the hotel swimming pool, snapping up a few bargains at the famous Khan el Khalili bazaar or exploring more of Cairo on our optional Cairo City tour. You could also visit the tomb-strewn Saqqara, home to Zhoser’s Step Pyramid. Zhoser’s Step Pyramid was constructed by Imhotep, the pharaoh’s chief architect in 2700 BC, and was the template for all future pyramid construction, including the Great Pyramids of Giza. If you already have something in mind that you would like to pre book, let your consultant know so we can arrange this in advance for you.
