After breakfast, your Egyptologist tour guide will be ready to pick you up from your hotel, marking the beginning of your Cairo Day Tours. You'll have the privilege of visiting some of Egypt's most iconic sites, including the legendary Giza Pyramids. You will visit the Great Pyramid of Cheops, which is the largest of the three pyramids, the central pyramid of King Chephren, and the pyramid of King Mecerinus.
These grand pyramids were constructed with the belief that the Pharaohs of Egypt, regarded as the offspring of the sun god Amun Ra, would ascend to godhood in the afterlife. As a result, they were interred in vast pyramid tombs stocked with all the necessities for their journey to the next world.
You'll also explore the vicinity of the Great Sphinx of Giza, which is a symbol of strength and wisdom. This enigmatic monument features the head of a man and the body of a lion.
For those seeking a unique experience, there's the option to enjoy a camel ride, offering a fantastic opportunity to capture memorable photos of your Cairo trip.
Following this, you will visit the Egyptian Museum in downtown Cairo, where a treasure trove of rare artifacts from ancient Egypt awaits. The exhibits include massive coffins, monumental statues, and the remarkable golden collection of King Tutankhamun.
After a satisfying lunch at a local restaurant, your Egypt day tours continue to Coptic Cairo, a historic area featuring ancient churches. This includes the Hanging Church of the Holy Virgin Mary, which is one of the oldest churches in Egypt, and the ancient Abu Serga Church dating back to the 4th century. You'll also visit the historically significant Jewish Synagogue of Ben Ezra, originally a Christian church.
After an eventful day exploring Cairo, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Cairo for a comfortable overnight stay.
