Description

Experience the wonders of Cairo on a private day tour from Hurghada with personalized attention from your own Egyptologist guide. Depart early in the morning from your hotel and enjoy a comfortable 5–6 hour drive to Cairo, with a short stop for refreshments along the way.

Begin your adventure on the Giza Plateau, home to the iconic trio of pyramids: Khufu (Cheops), the largest and oldest, Khafre (Chephren), and Menkaure. You’ll also see the Great Sphinx, the legendary statue with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh, symbolizing power and mystery. Your private guide will provide in-depth explanations of the pyramids’ construction, history, and cultural significance.

Next, enjoy lunch at a traditional Cairo restaurant, sampling authentic Egyptian cuisine before continuing your tour to the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. Here, you’ll explore tens of thousands of artifacts, including statues, mummies, sarcophagi, everyday objects, and treasures from the tomb of Tutankhamun, including his iconic golden mask.

The tour concludes with a visit to Khan El Khalili Bazaar, Cairo’s oldest market. Wander through narrow alleys filled with traditional shops offering spices, jewelry, antiques, and handmade souvenirs, the perfect place to pick up unique gifts and immerse yourself in local culture.

In the evening, return to your hotel in Hurghada in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, completing a full day of exploration and discovery.

This private tour is perfect for travelers who want a flexible and personalized experience with a knowledgeable guide, avoiding the constraints of a large group.

Great experience

Ali was so sweet and an excellent personal guide. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Egypt. He picked us up (4 adults and 2 kids) from our hotel and dropped us off. It was great to have a personal tour and we really enjoyed the experience. Recommended
