TOUR DESCRIPTION
Experience the wonders of ancient Egypt on an unforgettable excursion to the Great Sphinx, the majestic Pyramids of Giza—a UNESCO World Heritage Site—and the remarkable Grand Egyptian Museum, home to the legendary treasures of King Tutankhamun.
Begin your journey in comfort, departing from Suez aboard a luxury air-conditioned motor coach bound for Cairo, Africa’s largest and most vibrant city. Your first stop is the iconic Giza Plateau, where the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World—the Pyramids of Giza—still stands proudly. Take in breathtaking panoramic views from the Western Plateau before moving in for a closer look at these ancient marvels.
Continue to the valley below, where the mighty Sphinx—the timeless guardian of this mortuary complex—rests silently, its mysterious expression still captivating after millennia.
Pause for a leisurely break and indulge in a sumptuous buffet lunch at a top-rated 5-star venue. Afterward, head to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the largest archaeological museum complex on Earth, housing over 100,000 artifacts. For the first time ever, the complete collection of King Tutankhamun’s treasures is on display, alongside relics from prehistoric times through thousands of years of pharaonic history, and into the ancient Greek and Roman eras.
Wrap up your adventure with a visit to a Papyrus Institute, where you’ll see a live demonstration of the ancient Egyptian art of papermaking from reeds. Before returning to the ship, enjoy some time to browse for unique souvenirs to commemorate your incredible journey.
