Itinerary

Explore the Giza Pyramids, Egyptian Musuem, El Moez Street and Khan El Khalili Bazaar

In the morning, you will depart comfortably from your Soma Bay hotel and proceed to Hurghada airport in a private air-conditioned vehicle. The road from Soma Bay to Hurghada Airport takes around 50 minutes. We will determine the exact flight time upon booking.

Meet the majesty of the Giza Pyramids Plateau and the Great Statue of Sphinx. 

After meeting your Egyptologist, go ahead to the ticket booking office. If you wish to visit the interior of the Kings' Pyramids, please ask your Egyptologist to assist you in booking an additional ticket, which is not included in the tour charge.

Arrive at the Great Pyramid of Cheops, “Khufu Pyramid,” and experience a feeling you haven't experienced before when meeting the awe-inspiring Great Pyramid. The alignment of the pyramids to the Orion Group also contributes to the hidden energy you will experience.

Besides the Chephren Pyramid, you discover the three Satellite Pyramids for the Queens, “The Pyramids of Khufu's mother, daughter, and wife.” You can enter the Mother's Pyramid from inside if it is not a Friday for free, uncovering what the pyramids are like from inside.

Explore the Mortuary Temple, where the kings’ mummies were purified with the 7 holy oils after the mummification process and before the burial. Meet the Giza Builders Tombs, and walk through the Causeway where the ancient Egyptians carried the kings after mummification.

Explore the Rest of Giza Pyramids Plateau

Meet the Chephren Pyramid with its cladding that has been kept since its building in the Old Kingdom; realize that the pyramids were built with the claddings, but because of erosion factors, these claddings were removed.

 Reach the Valley Temple, the site of the mummification process. Cross through the Menkaure Pyramid, and go up to the highest point of the Giza Pyramids Plateau, where you see 6 pyramids and the Great Sphinx in one dazzling view; it is the Panorama.

Come face-to-face with the legendary Great Statue of the Sphinx while the mysteries surrounding it reveal the greatness of ancient Egypt. Meet the Giza Builders Tombs, and walk through the Causeway where the ancient Egyptians carried the kings after mummification.

This museum provides an overview of Egypt's historical eras, ranging from prehistoric times to the Roman and Greek periods, including the Old Kingdom, Middle Kingdom, and New Kingdom.

Lunchtime 

Egyptian cuisine is rich with delicious food, and you will experience the best of it now with amazing flavors that reflect Egypt's culture.

El Moez Street and Khan El-Khalili Bazaar 

In the Islamic Old Cairo, there are great historical gates surrounding the capital, and now you will cross through the Bab El Ftouh Door to enter inside these Fatimid and Mamluk eras.

Meet the oldest minarets in Old Cairo at Al Hakim Mosque, and wander through places called Madrasa, Bayramistan, and Sabils with amazing decorations and unique architecture in the Qalawun group

Enjoy a shopping time in this Fatimid market that still keeps the historical atmosphere; it is the bustling Khan El-Khalili Bazaar. Afterwards, take your seat in the private modern vehicle, which will take you to the airport for your flight back to Hurghada. Finally, relish a cozy drop-off service at your hotel in Soma Bay.

Great service. We had a wonderful time. Our guide Abdel Salam was very kind, spoke excellent English and shared his extensive knowledge with us. We had a private AC car. Visited most of the main sites in Cairo over two days. Would highly recommend.

Everything was great. We did Cairo tour and Luxor. 7 pers with driver and guide. The trips was tiring, but it was worth it. We received exactly the services reserved.
(5/5)
Great private tour to see desert and abandoned Roman ruins. Excellent service. We had private jeep, driver and tour guide. Amazing adventure, more than we expected. I strongly recommend this service. They can take you to some cool and unknown places far from main routes. Thank you for the amazing time!

We had the best guide ever, Ashraf! He is super skilled with a big heart. We became friends. I could definitely recommend Ashraf and the guided travels he does!
(5/5)
Ashraf was our Egyptian professional guide for a Czech small group planned "Sacred journey to the chacra temples of Egypt". As the title already says, not only were we using his incredible life experience of an egyptolog, tourist guide and organiser. We were also using his experience with the places themselves, which of the extra tickets are worth the money to visit the extra places, which of the villages and shops are fair and having good things. And of course all the historical stories linked to the places we visited with open mind to some new more alternative explanations of happenings too. The organisation of our trip from Hurghada, through Asuan, Luxor, Ghiza and back Hurghada is fully his expertise. Minivans, boat, train... He was always with us handling all to our happiness ❤️ Buying extra water, bananas or ordering better for stomach digestion food.
(5/5)
We arranged the tour a few weeks in advance before arriving in Egypt. Akram presented us with a complete private tour program, starting in Hurghada, visiting Cairo, the Black and White deserts, Alexandria and finally returning to Hurghada. Everything run smoothly, from the different drivers, who picked us up and dropped us off, always punctual and safe (especially Hamada, 'Medo'!) to the guides, in particular Reeham in Cairo who was just outstanding and Ahmed in the desert tour who welcomed us in his home together with his family before taking us and preparing our dinner in the desert! The overnight stays were all planned in great detail. It was definitely an incredible experience during these 4 days! A huge thank you to Akram!
