Day 1: Day 1: Discover the Wonders of Tanis and Bubastis
  1. 1h
    As the sun rises, you'll be greeted by our expert Egyptologist guide, ready to whisk you away on a 30-minute drive to the mystical city of Tanis.

    This city, steeped in biblical history, is none other than Zoan from the ancient land of Goshen, where Moses was discovered amidst the delta marshes.

    Once the thriving capital during the New Kingdom era, Tanis is home to the awe-inspiring ruins of the temples of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.

    But the adventure doesn't stop there! Next, we'll journey to Bubastis, a two-hour drive from Cairo. Known as Per-Bast, this city was the worship center of the feline goddess Bast.

    Here, you'll find remnants of temples dedicated to King Teti and Pepi the First, offering a glimpse into the past that's sure to captivate your imagination.

    After a day of exploration and discovery, we'll ensure your safe return to the comfort of your Cairo hotel.
