Tour Itinerary

With Your Egypt Tours, immerse yourself in the rich history of Egypt with a private, unforgettable visit to the iconic Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM). Begin your journey surrounded by over 50,000 Egyptian artifacts, including the world’s most extensive collection of Pharaonic treasures. Among the highlights is the priceless collection of King Tutankhamun, featuring his legendary gilded coffins and breathtaking golden mask. Your expert guide will lead you through the museum’s masterpieces and then allow you time to explore at your own pace.

 

Next, visit the Alabaster Mosque at the Citadel of Salah el-Din, one of Cairo’s most important Islamic landmarks. Perched atop a limestone hill with sweeping views of the city, this architectural masterpiece is still an active place of worship. The mosque’s lower levels are adorned with smooth alabaster, while the upper sections feature limestone cladding sourced from the Pyramids of Giza. Inside, your guide will introduce the principles of Islam and provide translations of common prayers, offering insight into the faith and traditions.

 

Conclude your tour with a visit to the lively Khan el-Khalili Bazaar, a historic marketplace said to have inspired Christopher Columbus. Wander through the maze of streets at your leisure, shop for souvenirs, and practice bargaining with local vendors. You will also have the opportunity to visit a Papyrus Institute, where you can observe the traditional creation of this famous artwork and purchase authentic pieces if you wish.

Egypt Travel FAQs

Learn about our latest news, promotions, and professional tips. Know before you book your next Egypt tours

One day in Cairo may not be enough to experience everything in Cairo, but it is more than enough to learn about the popular attractions in Cairo such as the Egyptian Museum. You can find a lot of attractions if you have a well-thought-out itinerary and the desire to explore.

You can certainly enjoy Cairo day tours on your own, but having a tour guide around will be more beneficial because they can teach you about the background information and history of each Cairo attraction. Whatever mode of transportation you pick when visiting Cairo, be ready for crowds. Taxis and metro tickets are reasonably priced, as are both public and private tour buses.

Begin your day tour in Cairo with popular attractions such as the Pyramids of Giza, Saqqara, Memphis, and Dahsour, finish the attractions of Giza day tours then move to the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir, and end your day with a shopping tour in Khan El Khalili.

Cairo is one of the largest cities in the world, and the second largest in Africa by population. You could tour the city for weeks, but we suggest spending at least 3 days in Cairo on your first visit.

Yes, a day trip to Alexandria from Cairo is worth it, but as others have said, it’s going to take most of the day to visit most popular attractions in Alexandria day tours such as Qaitbay Citadel, Lighthouse, Catcombos of Kom El Shoqafa, and Alexandria Library.
