   DAY 02 Giza Pyramids, Grand Egyptian Museum & Saqqara

   After breakfast, begin your journey through ancient Egypt with a visit to the legendary Giza Plateau, home to the last remaining wonder of the ancient world.

   The Giza Pyramids Complex, built over 4,500 years ago, includes the three main pyramids, several smaller pyramids, the Great Sphinx, and the Valley Temple. These extraordinary monuments were constructed as royal tombs for Egypt’s pharaohs and continue to amaze visitors from around the world.

   The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the largest and most famous of the pyramids. Built around 2580 BC, it originally stood at nearly 147 metres tall and remained the tallest man-made structure on Earth for thousands of years. Its impressive scale and mysterious design still fascinate historians and archaeologists today.

   Standing guard beside the pyramids is the Great Sphinx, one of Egypt’s most recognisable symbols. With the body of a lion and the face believed to represent Pharaoh Khafre, the Sphinx has long symbolised strength, wisdom, and royal power.

   Nearby, visit the Valley Temple, where ancient purification and mummification rituals are thought to have taken place. The temple remains remarkably well preserved and features enormous limestone and granite blocks.

   Continue your tour with a visit to the spectacular Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), one of the largest archaeological museums in the world. Overlooking the pyramids, the museum houses thousands of priceless artefacts spanning thousands of years of Egyptian civilisation, including the treasures of Tutankhamun, the Hanging Obelisk, and the colossal statue of Ramses II.

   After lunch at a local restaurant, travel to Saqqara to explore the Step Pyramid of Djoser — the world’s first pyramid and the earliest known large-scale stone structure. Designed by the architect Imhotep, this revolutionary monument marked the beginning of pyramid construction in ancient Egypt.

   DAY 03 Historic Cairo & Islamic Heritage

   Following breakfast, continue discovering Cairo’s rich cultural and Islamic heritage.

   Begin at the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square, home to one of the world’s finest collections of ancient Egyptian antiquities. The museum contains thousands of artefacts, including royal mummies, statues, jewellery, and treasures from the tomb of Tutankhamun.

   After lunch at a local restaurant, continue to the Citadel district.

   The Citadel of Salah El-Din has overlooked Cairo since the 12th century. Originally built as a fortress to defend the city, it later became the centre of government for many centuries and remains one of Cairo’s most historic landmarks.

   Inside the citadel, visit the impressive Mosque of Mohamed Ali, also known as the Alabaster Mosque. Built in Ottoman style during the 19th century, the mosque is famous for its elegant domes, towering minarets, and beautifully decorated interior.

   Next, head to Al Muizz Street, one of the oldest streets in Islamic Cairo. Dating back to the Fatimid period, the street is lined with historic mosques, schools, palaces, and traditional buildings that reflect Cairo’s rich architectural heritage.

   End the day at Khan El Khalili Bazaar, Cairo’s famous traditional market. Filled with colourful stalls, handmade souvenirs, spices, jewellery, cafés, and historic alleyways, the bazaar offers a lively and authentic atmosphere unlike anywhere else in the city.
