Day Trip Details
At the indicated time, we’ll pick you up from your hotel in Sharm el-Sheikh and head to the airport. There, we’ll board a flight that will take us to Cairo in less than 1 hour.
Once we arrive in Egypt’s capital, we’ll travel by minibus to the Grand Egyptian Museum, inaugurated in November 2025. Its extensive exhibition covers more than 5,000 years of history through unique treasures and artifacts from the pharaonic period. Among the highlights are the colossus of Ramses II, the solar boat of Khufu, and the treasure of Tutankhamun.

We’ll discuss how the pyramids were built, how long they took to complete, and the secrets they hold, while walking alongside these iconic monuments of ancient Egypt.
We’ll also talk about the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, and see the Great Sphinx of Giza. You’ll then have 1 hour of free time to explore the area at your own pace.
Finally, we’ll return to Cairo airport to take the flight back to Sharm el-Sheikh. After a total of 13 to 14 hours, we’ll drop you off at your hotel.
