Spend your Christmas in Cairo and discover two of Egypt’s most famous attractions in one memorable day. This private Christmas tour combines the incredible Giza Pyramids with the Grand Egyptian Museum, giving you a chance to experience ancient Egyptian history while enjoying the festive season in Cairo.
Your day starts with a comfortable pickup from your hotel. Meet your Egyptologist guide and head to the Giza Plateau, where some of the most famous monuments in the world are waiting for you.
Begin with the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest of the three pyramids and the only surviving wonder of the ancient world. Continue to the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, and take some time to enjoy the views of the entire Giza Plateau.
Next, visit the Great Sphinx, with its famous lion’s body and human head. Your guide will tell you more about the history and stories surrounding this remarkable monument. You’ll also visit the Valley Temple, located next to the Sphinx.
If you would like to explore inside the Great Pyramid, you can purchase an additional entrance ticket at the site.
After exploring the pyramids, take a break for lunch at a local restaurant and try some traditional Egyptian dishes before continuing your Christmas sightseeing.
In the afternoon, head to the Grand Egyptian Museum. Explore its impressive collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts and discover more about the people, culture, and history behind one of the world’s most fascinating civilizations.
The museum gives you a completely different perspective on Ancient Egypt after seeing the pyramids themselves earlier in the day. Walk through the galleries, admire the ancient statues and treasures, and learn more about the pharaohs and their world from your Egyptologist guide.
As your Christmas day in Cairo comes to an end, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel in a comfortable private vehicle.
It’s a full day of pyramids, ancient treasures, Egyptian culture, and Christmas memories in Cairo — a great way to spend the holiday if you want to experience something truly different.
