Cairo International Airport - Upon arrival, our representative will greet and assist you, followed by a transfer to your hotel.

Giza Pyramids & Saqqara Necropolis, Memphis

Pyramids of Giza - The Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx are not only top attractions in Egypt but are also must-see ancient monuments. The Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx are perhaps the most renowned ancient sites globally and the only remaining wonder of the Ancient Seven Wonders of the World. A visit to Egypt is incomplete without seeing the Pyramids of Giza. Even if you have visited Egypt multiple times, the Pyramids and the Sphinx at the base of the Giza plateau are iconic images of Egypt. Don’t forget to capture a photo in front of the Pyramids and Sphinx.

Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - The most prominent landmark of Saqqara is the Step Pyramid, the tomb of the Third Dynasty ruler Djoser, built by Imhotep. It is considered the earliest major stone structure in Egypt. The pyramid’s form evolved from the large mastabas (mud-brick tombs) of the First and Second Dynasties, with six steps, each smaller than the one below, created by adding successive layers of masonry. The Step Pyramid stands 60 meters high and is constructed from locally quarried clay sandstone. Entry is no longer permitted due to safety concerns. The pyramid’s chambers and passages were used for the burial of the King’s close relatives and for storing grave goods.

Memphis and Saqqara - Memphis was the ancient capital of Aneb-Hetch, the first nome of Lower Egypt. Its ruins are near the town of Mit Rahina and feature the largest statue made by man, the great statue of King Ramses II, and the alabaster sphinx of Queen Hatshepsut.

Visit The Grand Egyptian Museum & Old Cairo & Bazaar

Grand Egyptian Museum - Located near the Pyramids of Giza, the Grand Egyptian Museum is one of the world’s largest archaeological museums, housing over 100,000 artifacts from Egypt’s history, from prehistoric times to the Greco-Roman period. The museum’s highlight is the complete collection of Tutankhamun, displayed for the first time. Visitors can also admire colossal statues, royal mummies, jewelry, and reliefs that narrate the story of ancient Egypt. Its modern design, Grand Staircase, and glass façade offer stunning views of the pyramids, making it a world-class cultural landmark.

Coptic Cairo - Coptic Cairo is a part of Old Cairo that includes the Babylon Fortress, the Coptic Museum, the Hanging Church, the Greek Church of St. George, and many other Coptic churches and historical sites.

Khan Al-Khalili - Khan el-Khalili is a major market in the historic center of Islamic Cairo. The bazaar district is a main attraction for both tourists and Egyptians.

From Cairo to Luxor by Flight - Cruising the Nile - Explore the Temples of Karnak & Luxor

Temple of Karnak - Karnak Temple is a vast temple complex in Luxor dedicated primarily to Amun, dating back to as early as 2000 BC. It is an impressive sight, second only to the Great Pyramids in popularity.

Luxor Temple - Luxor Temple is a large Ancient Egyptian temple complex on the east bank of the Nile River in Luxor, constructed around 1400 BCE. In Egyptian, it is known as Ipet Resyt, “the southern sanctuary.”

Cairo International Airport - After breakfast, check out of your hotel in Cairo and transfer to Cairo airport for your flight to Luxor.

Discover the West Bank, Valley of the Kings & Hatshepsut Temple & Memnon

Valley of the Kings - The Valley of Kings is the ancient burial ground of many of Egypt’s New Kingdom Pharaohs. It is a truly impressive site, featuring Tutankhamun’s tomb, discovered almost intact in 1922, and the tomb of Ramses IV, among others. A ticket allows you to visit 3 of the 63 tombs on site, excluding Tutankhamun’s tomb. The tombs have suffered from treasure hunters, floods, and mass tourism, affecting the reliefs and pigments of the wall paintings. The Ministry of Antiquities has installed dehumidifiers and glass screens in the worst-affected tombs and introduced a rotation system for opening tombs to the public while restoring others.

Temple of Hatshepsut - The temple of Queen Hatshepsut, the first lady of ancient Egypt, is a remarkable site. She ruled Egypt for about 16 years after her brother-husband Thutmose II. She built this temple as a funerary temple and ruled Egypt as a male king because women were not allowed to rule. She married her stepson Thutmose III, who later became king after her death and destroyed her monuments as an act of revenge. The temple has a unique style, consisting of three floors cut into the cliffs of the Valley of the Kings. Queen Hatshepsut was buried in the Valley of the Kings, and her mummy was discovered in the Egyptian Museum storerooms and is now displayed in the Mummy room.

Colossi of Memnon - The Colossi of Memnon are two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, who reigned during the 18th Dynasty. For 3,400 years, they have stood in the Theban Necropolis, west of the Nile River from modern Luxor.

Visit the Temples on the Nile Banks, Temples of Edfu & Kom Ombo

Temple of Kom Ombo - The Temple of Kom Ombo is an unusual double temple in the town of Kom Ombo in Aswan Governorate, Upper Egypt. It was constructed during the Ptolemaic dynasty, 180–47 BC. The southern half of the temple was dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek, god of fertility and creator of the world, along with Hathor and Khonsu.

Temple of Horus - This Ptolemaic temple, built between 237 and 57 BC, is one of the best-preserved ancient monuments in Egypt. Preserved by desert sand after the pagan cult was banned, the temple is dedicated to Horus, the avenging son of Isis and Osiris. With its roof intact, it is also one of the most atmospheric ancient buildings.

Discover the Great Temple of Isis, Philae Temple

Temple of Philae - One of Nubia’s most important monument sites, the Temples of Philae, located 12 kilometers south of Aswan, was an ancient pilgrimage center for the cult of Isis. It dazzled travelers for centuries, from the Pharaonic era to the Greek, Roman, and Byzantine periods, with each ruler adding their own mark. Saved from submersion by UNESCO’s rescue project, which relocated the monuments block by block from Philae Island to Agilika Island, the temples continue to enchant visitors.
