Tour Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive in Cairo and see the city’s landmarks.

The vacation of a lifetime will begin the minute you arrive at Cairo airport, where an employee from “Egypt Fun Tours” will be waiting for you. You will then begin your journey by visiting:

Giza Pyramids Complex

The Giza Pyramids complex is a collection of marvels that stretches back over 4000 years and comprises the three major pyramids, six smaller pyramids, the Great Sphinx, and the Valley Temple.

The Great Pyramid of Giza

The Great Pyramid of Khufu is where Egypt’s glory is revealed, as it is one of the world’s oldest and largest structures, dating back to 2580 BC, making it more than 4500 years old. It was built in 20 years using 2,300,000 blocks of limestone and stands at a height of 147 meters (481 feet), making it the world’s tallest building for 3800 years.

The Great Sphinx of Giza

The great sphinx is the world’s oldest statue, standing 73 meters (240 feet) tall and 19 meters (66 feet) wide in the form of a mythological creature known as the sphinx, which has the body of a lion and the head of a man, most likely king Khafre, as a symbol of power and knowledge. Since its inception in Egypt’s ancient empire, this location has been shrouded in mystery (2686-2181 BC).

The Valley Temple

It is one of the best-preserved ancient Egyptian archeological sites, composed completely of limestone and granite, with diorite sculptures of Chephren.

Lunch will be provided in a restaurant with a view of the Pyramids and the Nile, followed by a tour to:

The Egyptian Museum

The Egyptian Museum is a voice from the past, with over 120,000 rare ancient Egyptian artifacts dating back over 4000 years, from all time periods, made from lavish materials such as gold and precious gems to ordinary materials such as wood or stone in the form of statues, jewelry, and funerary objects. The most popular treasures are those of King Tutankhamun, as well as a number of mummies on exhibit.

After that, you’ll check into your hotel for the night.

Day 2: Take a tour of Alexandria’s most famous landmarks

After breakfast and check-out from the hotel, you will travel to Alexandria, a pearl of the Mediterranean Sea and a wonderful city. Upon arrival, you will see some of Alexandria’s most popular tourist sites, beginning with:

Citadel of Qaitbay

Sultan Al-Ashraf Sayf Al-Din Qait Bay built the Qaitbay Citadel in 1477 in the same location as the legendary lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, using stones recovered from the damaged lighthouse. All tourists like the citadel because it combines the brilliant spirit of the Alexandria Lighthouse with some wonderful Islamic architectural styles and embellishments.

Kom El Shoqafa’s Catacombs

The Catacombs resemble an old subterranean mansion full of hidden horrors. It was built as a necropolis in the 2nd century AD and blended the aesthetic features of the Hellenistic and Roman cultures with the old Egyptian Pharaonic civilization in the most exquisite way. Between its three-level stories, it houses a variety of Greek and Roman antiques and décor, earning it the title of one of the Middle Ages’ seven wonders.

After a delicious lunch at a local Alexandria restaurant, proceed to:

Pompey’s Pillar

Pompey’s Pillar is a symbol of ancient Greek civilization’s might and glory; it is famous for being the largest monolithic column ever built outside of Rome; it was named Pompey’s Pillar because Crusaders believed that the remains of the great Roman General Pompey were kept in a pot at the very top of the pillar during the Middle Ages. It is built of solid red granite and rises 28 meters tall and 2.7 meters wide. On its western top side is a Greek inscription attributed to Emperor Diocletian.

The Library of Alexandria

The Alexandria Library is a tribute to the ancient Alexandria Library. It is one of the world’s largest and most advanced libraries, and it houses the world’s sixth-largest Francophone library. It is trilingual, with books in Arabic, English, and French, as well as the largest depository of French books in North Africa and the Middle East. It also houses majestic art galleries and full collections of some of the world’s rarest books.

After that, you’ll fly back to Luxor from Cairo International Airport. Note: You are welcome to express your ideas on whether or not any trips should be included or removed from your tour schedule in order to satisfy your requirements and meet your demands.

What People Say About Us
5/5

Thank you Egypt Fun Tours for a most memorable trip. I admit I didn’t do any of the planning (it was all done by my boyfriend) but as you can read in the reviews below Hani (the owner of Egypt Fun Tours) is superbly organized and accommodating with scheduling.

My boyfriend and I, and our dearest mutual friend, booked the 7Days-6Nights tour. In short time, we visited Cairo, Aswan, and Luxor sailing down the down the Nile, pit stopping to see key sites at these location – and so much more!!! We got to know the ancient and modern egypt in depth thanks to Hani’s impressive knowledge. He also enlightened us on the people and their beliefs and went as far as showing us what a typical life looks like. I cannot express the level of personalized service Hani offered us. He was flexible to adapt to our requirements and added sites to our schedule that was not part of the tour simply to ensure we were 100% satisfied with our experience in Egypt.

I went to Egypt practically blind-folded, not knowing what to expect, especially considering the time we had decided to go (December 2020 – we were the first group that Hani met with after months of having to put his tour agency on hold considering the pandemic) yet he managed to surpass all of our expectations. I felt so incredibly lucky for us to have stumbled on Hani. I would recommend Egypt Fun Tours to anyone and everyone. It was truly, HANDS DOWN, the best cultural experience I’ve ever had. You’ll be in the best of hands.

Nille cruise,Luxor and Aswan where amazing sites to see, specially when you have with you the best tour guide in Egypt .Hamada was absolutely fantastic, lots of information and some of them not spoken by others. This guy was not only a simple tour guide for us, he became a good friend also. Was a one in lifetime experience. Highly recommend Fun Tours. Really a great experience.

Hamada was incredible! So knowledgeable and kind. He had information about every item, street corner, and relic we looked at. Any questions we had, he had answers! He even made sure to give us tips while walking through the crowds so that’s we would feel more comfortable when being approached by vendors. Oh and the food?! He took us to the best places! Delicious food!! We tried Egyptian fried chicken, falafel for the first time, the best shawarma in the city (we love food). We even got to meet his beautiful wife and children and try some “French” Egyptian coffee in their home! Truly made friends for life!! We’ve promised to host him and the family when they travel to America for the first time! Such an incredible experience, and Hamada (and family) made it that much more memorable and amazing!

Excellent trip to historic sites with no one else around. We came to see Egypt while most places still had COVID19 fears. The staff at Egypt Fun Tours were professional, safe, and great to deal with. Very helpful, knowledgeable, and entertaining. I feel like I just got a a year of Egyptology in the last week and we had all the sites to ourselves due to COVID19. While people are shutting down and staying home you should feel safe to come explore with Egypt Fun Tours and have the place to yourself.
