What to expect

Day 1: Pyramids Tour / Egyptian Museum
  1. The Great Pyramid of Khufu
    30m · Admission ticket included
    "You will be transferred via an air-conditioned vehicle to Cairo, a scenic drive of 3 hours, with a stop if needed to rest.

    Our Egyptologist guide will set the stage for an extraordinary private trip to the only surviving wonder of the ancient world. Your first stop is the Pyramid of Cheops, the largest pyramid in the Giza Plateau—and the world. Here you will get the opportunity to live an Indiana Jones–like quest by getting inside the body of the Great Pyramid with an optional ticket that grants you access inside."
  2. 30m · Admission ticket included
    "Next, stand before the majestic Pyramid of Chephren, the second tallest of the Giza Pyramids
    and the only one still retaining part of its original casing at the summit. Accompanied by your private guide,
    you'll explore the surrounding ruins, and gain deep insight into the power and legacy of King Khafre."
  3. 30m · Admission ticket included
    "Next, discover the Pyramid of Mykerinos, the smallest of the three pyramids yet rich in mystery and architectural precision.
    With your private Egyptologist, explore its unique structure and astonishing red granite casing,
    learn about King Menkaure's legacy, and enjoy a deeper look into ancient royal symbolism."
  4. 30m · Admission ticket included
    Continue to the Great Sphinx, a massive statue that harks back to the era of Chephren and combines a lion's body with a human's head. Don't miss the chance to snap that iconic selfie kissing the Sphinx.
  5. Valley Temple of Khafre
    30m · Admission ticket included
    Proceed to the Valley Temple, a mysterious structure built with colossal granite blocks. The temple, thought to date back to the reign of King Chephren, is identical to Latin American ancient temples, sparking theories of lost technologies and mysterious building methods. Uncover the hidden symbolism of this enigmatic site as you explore the Giza Plateau in depth with your private Egyptologist.
  6. 2h · Admission ticket included
    "Next, you’ll visit the Egyptian Museum, home to a vast collection of artifacts from the Pharaonic period, including 250,000 artifacts dating back 5,000 years.

    After a day of history and discovery, you'll enjoy an authentic lunch at a local restaurant before being driven to your hotel.
    Optional tours include a two-hour dinner cruise on the Nile or a Sound and Light show at the Giza Pyramids area."
Day 2: Alexandria Sights
  1. Catacombs Of Kom El Shoqafa
    1h
    "After breakfast at the hotel, you'll be transferred to Alexandria in an air-conditioned vehicle. Where you'll visit the Catacombs, an ancient Roman Cemetery. Carved into three levels in the rock, this labyrinth blends Pharaonic, Hellenistic, and Roman art and rituals in a rare display of cultural fusion.
    Uncover hidden chambers, symbolic carvings, and burial traditions that reveal the complex layers of Alexandria's ancient society
    with your private storyteller guide."
  2. Citadel of Qaitbay
    30m · Admission ticket included
    "After exploring these ancient wonders, you'll enjoy a delicious lunch at one of Alexandria's local restaurants.
    Then, continue to the Qaitbay Citadel, a 15th-century fortress built on the exact site of Alexandria's ancient Pharos (Lighthouse),
    once one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

    As the evening descends, your guide will accompany you back to your cruise ship at Alexandria port.

    Sun Pyramids Tours ensures a transparent and hassle-free experience, so you won't encounter any hidden surprises or unexpected costs.
