The Cairo Top Tours company provides one of the most interesting trips in Egypt: the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization and Pyramids Tour from Port Said. Please visit our website for details about other Port Said excursions and tours.

The trip begins with a visit to the world's top pyramids, which prove the greatness of the ancient Egyptians in terms of engineering, construction, and even mummification. The pyramids are undoubtedly one of the wonders of the world, with engineering skills beyond any civilized features even in the modern world, as no one has ever built structures like that.

After having looked at the pyramids, the World Egypt Museum or the *National Museum of Egyptian Civilization* shall be located in Fustat, the first capital of Egypt. Though the museum is relatively new, it enjoys the ability to display a wide range of materials, objects, and even sites from the past in Egypt and does, thank goodness, provide quite an effective window into the glory of ancient Egypt.
