Cairo features one of the world’s most famous archaeological sites, the Giza Plateau, home to the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx. This full-day bus tour covers key landmarks including the Pyramids of Giza, the Egyptian Museum, and the Khan Al-Khalili Bazaar. The tour begins with hotel pickup in Cairo or Giza and transport by private air-conditioned vehicle. The first stop is the Giza Plateau, where visitors view the three main pyramids: Cheops (Khufu), Chephren (Khafre), and Mykerinos (Menkaure), along with the Valley Temple where King Chephren’s body was mummified. The Great Pyramid of Khufu and the Pyramid of Khafre are seen from the outside; entry inside the pyramids is not included but tickets can be purchased during the tour. The nearby Great Sphinx, with a lion’s body and the head of King Chephren, is also visited. After about two hours at the pyramids, the tour proceeds to the Egyptian Museum in downtown Cairo, located near Liberation Square (Midan Tahrir). The museum holds extensive collections of ancient Egyptian artifacts, including treasures from Tutankhamun’s tomb, mummies, jewelry, and daily objects from ancient times. Visitors spend roughly three hours exploring the exhibits. The final stop is Khan Al-Khalili, a historic market district in Old Cairo dating back to the 14th century. Visitors have about an hour to walk through the bazaar’s shops and stalls before returning to their hotel. The tour includes lunch featuring local Egyptian cuisine, bottled water, and the services of a guide and driver if those options are selected.
