Wonderful Tour to the Egyptian Museum and Cairo Tower

Discover the wonders of ancient and modern Egypt through this magical Day Tour to the Egyptian Antiquities Museum and Cairo Tower. People call Cairo’s central business district and the surrounding region “Cairo the 2nd” because Khedive Ismail constructed them after Cairo’s “Al-Qahira” and almost replaced it in 1869 when he opened the Suez Canal. This tour includes all the sightseeing in this region, which is quite full of things to see and do.

Tour Itinerary

Transportation to and from any hotel in Cairo or Giza. Visit the Egyptian Museum, Downtown Cairo, the Cairo Tower, and the Opera House neighborhood. Return to the hotel by transfer. The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities keeps more than 120,000 artifacts from ancient Egypt, including King Tut’s gold hoard. The downtown area is home to stores that offer clothing, leather bags, and shoes, as well as Midan El-Tahrir, Sharia Qasr El-nil, Sharia Talaat Harb, and Egyptian movie theatres.

The Opera House: Outside View—the opportunity to go inside the cafeteria for a drink. Cairo Tower: The tower is the highest building in Cairo with a rotating restaurant at the top. See the view of Cairo from the top of the tower. The Egyptian Antiquities Museum: The museum is the biggest in the world with around 120000 pieces from ancient Egypt. It was opened in 1901.
