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.

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

    Firstly, I would like to give full appreciation and thanks to Mohey, our tour guide. He was so friendly, passionate about his heritage and knowledgeable about Egypt. He made the day exceptional. It was a very tiring day, 22 hours in total from pick up time at hotel to return to hotel. The only slight negative for me, was that the boat trip although we enjoyed it was only added to the trip whilst we were on the coach. We hadn’t taken enough cash with us to pay the extra £60 for our group and then

    We really enjoyed the knowledge of the egyptologist. Seeing the sights was great but we would have liked more time in the museum to look around. We could have done this instead of the boat. The trip to the perfume shop at the end of the day was a waste of time. Not interested and none of the group were.

    The day trip overall was a great experience and well worth undertaking. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the whole day and everything we seen. Security was also very good who was obviously very professional but interacted very well with the group. Our only niggle was a feeling of being a bit ripped off when paying for extras and the rep used an extremely poor exchange rate from EGP to USD and back to EGP. Using a converter of 70 rather than 45/46, However a very good experience.
