Pyramid Day Trip from Hurghada in Small Group
Enjoy visiting the first tourist destination in Egypt, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and other landmarks of the region. In addition to a tour of ancient Egypt and the Egyptian Museum, enjoy your road with modern air-conditioned vehicles.
You will find special attention from the tour guide due to the small group (maximum of 8 people), as if you were on a private trip. We will not forget the delicious Egyptian lunch on our journey.
Pick-up from your hotel in Hurghada to Cairo with a modern, air-conditioned vehicle.
It takes about 6 hours to arrive at the first stop.
It is the most famous Egyptian archaeological site which contains the Giza pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, the Sphinx, three other small pyramids, and other important landmarks.
There are still several hypotheses about how the pyramids were built, none of which have been proven due to the huge stones and the limited lifting capabilities at that time. Enjoy the special magic, and mystery surrounding the pyramids and the beauty of the desert nature of the place.
There will be enough time to hear more about those miracles from your tour guide and take special photos there, don't forget the famous photo of holding the pyramid's top.
Now is the time for the Great Sphinx, a statue of a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human, which is considered a guardian of the Giza Plateau. The great statue is still the subject of debate among archaeologists, as there is no agreement on the date of its construction, to which king it belongs, or the reason for its construction.
Note: Don't forget to give him some water or juice (a popular photo of tourists in Egypt)
From a short distance, you can see the panoramic view of the three famous pyramids with the smaller pyramids around them, you will see them as you see them on TV screens and social media sites despite the distances separating them.
Catch your breath and take a break, it's lunchtime. Enjoy the taste of oriental Egyptian food in a famous local restaurant, get the most famous Egyptian dishes, and experience the magic of oriental food. (Trip cost does not include drinks).
After lunch, you will head with the guide for a tour inside Old Cairo Streets, enjoy the heritage, and make sure to mingle with the Egyptian people. It's a great way to learn more about their customs and traditions and also a chance to buy unique Egyptian souvenirs for your friends or yourself as a way to always remember the day.
Now get ready for our last stop, the Egyptian Museum.
Opened in 1902, it is the oldest archaeological museum in the Middle East and houses the largest collection of ancient Egyptian monuments in the world.
You will be able to see several statues, including those of King Akhenaten and the head of his wife Queen Nefertiti, and others such as Kings Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, builders of the Giza pyramids, in addition to a large collection of papyri, jewelry, and coffins.
