What to expect

If you want to explore Cairo but without the stress of planning and organising your transportation and activities, then this is the tour for you. You'll discover the beauty, history and culture that fills the city and check out some of its must-see monuments.

When you arrive at Giza, you'll be introduced to the last remaining wonder of the ancient world, the Pyramids. You'll enter one of these colossal tombs to unearth its secrets before a visit to the Great Sphinx, where you'll stand in a prime spot near its front for photos. You’ll end your day at the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities in Cairo, home to the world’s largest collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts. Here you can explore its fascinating galleries and admire exceptional treasures, including the remarkably well-preserved mummies and the gilded mummy mask of Yuya and Thuya—among the most spectacular discoveries from the Valley of the Kings.

What to remember

Extra fees to be paid on site:

  • You'll gain access to the pyramids area, but the entrance fees to get inside the pyramids (Cheops, Mykerinos or Kefren) aren't included. The tickets available are limited and must be purchased on site, so access isn't guaranteed. The adult entrance fee of Cheops Pyramid is around 1,500 EGP, and Mykerinos or Kefren Pyramid is around 280 EGP. Children under 12 years get a 50% discount
  • At the Cairo Museum, personal cameras without flash are allowed for an additional fee that is currently EGP 50. Just so you know, this is subject to change without prior notice
  • Visa fees

Know in advance:

  • Please arrange a take-away breakfast box with your hotel reception one day before the tour date. If your accommodation includes dinner, then please coordinate with your hotel reception prior to the tour date to provide a late dinner at your room when you get back
  • The tour duration and pick-up times are simply guidelines, subject to change due to operational conditions and your hotel location
  • The six-people private group is open to a maximum of 15 participants

Remember to bring:

  • Your passport/ID with a valid Egypt Full Visa sticker. If you only get the free stamp (the Gulf of Aqaba Stamp) upon arrival at Sharm El Sheikh Airport, then you still need to buy the Full Egypt visa at Sharm El Sheikh Airport when you arrive for your flight after you've been picked up at your hotel
  • Long trousers, sunglasses, walking shoes, a camera, and cash
  • Notice: The Hall of Tutankhamun at the Egyptian Museum (including the Golden Mask and Golden Sarcophagus) will be closed from 20 October 2025 as the collection is being transferred to the new Grand Egyptian Museum. The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, however, remains rich with exceptional treasures, including the mummies and the gilded mummy mask of Yuya and Thuya—among the most spectacular ever found in the Valley of the Kings—remarkable for their extraordinary preservation and lifelike features
