What to expect

Discover the best of Cairo in comfort, depth, and style, all in one seamless experience. This hassle-free tour takes care of all transportation and activities, allowing you to fully enjoy the beauty, history, and culture of Egypt's vibrant capital.

Your journey begins with an evening pick-up from your accommodation in Luxor and a comfortable transfer to the train station, where you will board the overnight sleeper train - an added adventure in itself. Guests are entitled to both dinner and breakfast on board.

Upon arrival in Giza the next morning, you'll be greeted by your Egyptologist guide. Start at the legendary Giza Plateau, home to the Great Pyramids and the iconic Sphinx. Stand in awe before these ancient wonders as your guide brings their history, mysteries, and engineering brilliance to life.

After a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, you'll continue to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), Egypt's newest cultural landmark overlooking the Giza Plateau. Explore its spectacular halls filled with thousands of artefacts, including the complete treasures of King Tutankhamun displayed together for the first time.

Here, you'll have the opportunity to marvel at the Grand Staircase lined with colossal statues, royal relics, and immersive exhibits spanning 5,000 years. At the end of the day, after your visit to the museum, you'll return to the train station for an overnight train journey back to Luxor and a comfortable drop-off at your hotel.
