Cairo day tour
Egypt’s three headline sights in one day, with a private guide and a driver who knows which way the traffic is going. Best taken on your first full day in Cairo.
Day by day
We collect you after breakfast and start at Giza while the plateau is at its coolest: the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx and the panorama point where all three pyramids line up. Lunch in the city, then the Egyptian Museum, where we pick a route through rather than trying to see everything. We finish at the Citadel of Salah al-Din for the Mosque of Muhammad Ali and the view back over Cairo, and have you at your hotel by early evening.
Every day can move. Tell us where you’d like more time.
Prices are per person and vary with dates, group size and hotel choice. Your quote lists everything line by line.
The practical things travellers ask us most. Your trip designer covers the rest before you fly.
Churches, monasteries and mosques ask for covered shoulders and knees. A light scarf does both jobs and helps in the sun.
October to April is the comfortable season. In summer, Luxor and Aswan are very hot, so we start early and rest at midday.
We meet you as you land, or at the Taba border for Sinai trips, and walk you through visa and customs.
Early starts are flagged ahead of time. Tell us where you’d rather slow down and we’ll rebalance the days.
Make it yours
Change the dates, add a day in Sinai, swap the cruise for a dahabiya. We’ll send back a revised day-by-day plan.
