Day 1: Flight from Port Ghalib to the Giza Pyramids Complex
Your first day begins with a flight from Port Ghalib to the Giza Pyramids Complex. A private air-conditioned vehicle will transfer you from your hotel in Port Ghalib to Marsa Alam Airport. From there, you will continue to Cairo Airport. Once you arrive, your private tour guide will take you to see:
The three great pyramids, the Sphinx, and many other colossal structures rose to the sky around 2600 BC with the advent of ancient Egyptian civilization.
Since its completion in 2580 BC, a workforce of 100,000 built this majestic tomb for King Khufu. They used 2.3 million blocks of limestone to achieve a height of 147 meters. This tomb is the only surviving undamaged wonder from the ancient world.
The enormous Sphinx was constructed during the reign of King Khafre (2258-2532 BC) to resemble him. This guardian figure, carved from a single block of limestone, is 19 meters (66 feet) wide and 73 meters (240 feet) tall.
The mortuary Valley Temple, located within the Giza Plateau, served as the center of the mummification process. Ancient Egyptians performed these rituals here since their monarchy (2686-2134 BC).After your tour, enjoy lunch at a nearby restaurant across the complex. Then, you will continue to:
During the reign of Pharaoh Djoser (2687-2668 BC), builders constructed the Step Pyramid. This newly discovered marvel features a unique architectural design with six steps and reaches a height of 62 meters. This pyramid is considered the first official pyramid in Egyptian history.
Finally, you will transfer to your 5-star hotel in Cairo for the night.
Day 2: Sightseeing in Old Cairo
On Day 2, after breakfast, you will continue your Cairo adventure with your private tour guide. Your first stop will be:
The Egyptian Museum, located in the heart of Cairo, houses over 140,000 artifacts spanning 5000 years. Built in the 19th century, this museum showcases treasures made from precious materials like gold and stone. Among the most famous are the artifacts of King Tutankhamun. After lunch at a local Cairo restaurant, you will visit:
The Cairo Citadel, built in 1182 AD by Salah el-Din, served as a defensive castle against foreign invaders. It later became the government’s headquarters until 1860 AD. Within its gates, you will find various museums and art displays.
Located inside the Cairo Citadel, the Mohamed Ali Mosque is a stunning example of Ottoman architecture. Built between 1830 and 1848 AD, its alabaster facade is truly remarkable.
The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) beautifully displays Egypt’s hidden treasures. Here, visitors can marvel at spectacular artifacts dating back over 4000 years of diverse history and culture.Next, you will explore:
The Khan El Khalili Bazaar, founded in 970 AD during the golden Islamic period, remains the liveliest market in Egypt today. It overflows with everything a tourist could desire.

This week we had a great tour with Mohamed to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur as well as Memphis. He tailored the tour to our preferences, took a lot of time with us and gave us detailed background information on everything. It was also great that he never tired of taking the time to answer our many questions.
You can definitely tell that he has studied Egyptology as he has a very deep understanding of the subject and can explain everything well. He also speaks perfect English and is really good driver.
We would definitely book a tour with him again in a heartbeat and would recommend him to anyone. 🙂
Highly Recommend Egypt Fun Tours!
Several weeks ago, I reached out to Egypt Fun Tours regarding a 9-hour layover in Cairo. From the very beginning, Hani Ahmed was responsive and professional, quickly providing a well-organized itinerary tailored to our limited time. The itinerary included a visit to the pyramids, other historical sites, a delicious dinner, and even a quick stop for souvenir shopping.
Upon arrival, Gilman efficiently assisted us in obtaining our day tourist visas (note: $25 per person in cash). She then introduced us to our guide, Mydo, who was absolutely phenomenal! Mydo’s knowledge, friendly demeanor, and ability to adjust the tour to our pace made the experience unforgettable.
We returned to the airport with plenty of time to relax before our flight. The entire experience was smooth, stress-free, and incredibly memorable. Egypt Fun Tours offers reasonable prices for a private, customized experience that truly exceeds expectations. Thank you, Egypt Fun Tours! We will definitely use your services again in the future.
Muhammad is the best! He showed me a world I never thought possible! The tombs in Alexandria by far was my favorite! I never knew there was a place on earth that contained both Greek and Egyptian carvings in the same tombs! The history and culture of Egypt is so fascinating! I highly recommend booking with Muhammad!
