Overview

Port Said is a long way from the pyramids, about 3 hours by road, so a single shore day is mostly driving. This overnight tour fixes that with two full days in Cairo and a night in between.

Day one heads to the Giza Plateau for the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx, and the Valley Temple, with time at the Khan el-Khalili bazaar and an optional evening Sound and Light Show at the pyramids. Day two takes in the Egyptian Museum and the Citadel of Saladin, then a walk through Old Cairo before the drive back to your ship. Hotel, breakfast, and lunches are included, with your Egyptologist guide alongside throughout.

Two days at an easy pace, with your guide timing everything around your sailing.

Ideal for cruise guests at Port Said who want Cairo in depth rather than a single rushed day.
