Overview
Your ship is in Alexandria for two days, so this overnight tour gives you the full sweep, Cairo, Giza, and Alexandria, without racing back to the port each night.
Day one drives to Cairo for the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum, then an overnight stay at a Cairo hotel. Day two works through Alexandria on the way back: the Catacombs of Kom el-Shoqafa, Qaitbay Citadel on the harbor, and Pompey's Pillar, before you reboard. Your private guide and driver handle every transfer and the timing around your ship.
Two days, two cities, real time at each instead of one frantic dash inland.
Ideal for cruise guests with an overnight in port who want both the pharaonic and Greco-Roman sides of Egypt.
