Many cruise ships stopping over in Alexandria offer a few shore excursions. These tours are specially designed to fit in the scheduled cruise time and hence a traveler sees the wonders of Egypt without leaving behind his ship. The common options are day trips to Cairo, overnight tours to Luxor, and comprehensive tours covering both cities.
Giza Pyramids and Cairo Museum tours will introduce guests to ancient Egyptian history. They will take them to see the Pyramids, which include the museum housing the Treasure of Tutankhamun. The Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple trips in Luxor will offer guests a chance to see the pharaonic tombs. They will also explore the huge temple complexes dedicated to the god Amun.
Khan El Khalili Market is a brisk marketplace. Indeed, it is one of the finest destinations if you enjoy the local culture and purchase a few keepsakes.
Clothing should be comfortable and rather modest, with tours scheduled during the cooler months: October through April. Egypt Fun Tours include transportation, entrance fees, and meals.
