Itinerary

1

When you arrive at Cairo International Airport, our Egyptologist guide and representative will be there to meet you. They’ll help you with the airport procedures, collect your luggage, and make sure everything is sorted before you leave the airport. You’ll then be driven to your hotel in Cairo in a private, air-conditioned car. 

As the first day of your 8-Day Egypt Tour Package, this arrival experience is designed to make your journey smooth and comfortable from the moment you land.

The drive from the airport is your first look at Cairo. You’ll probably notice the traffic straight away. There are cars everywhere, people walking along the streets, small shops and cafés, and the usual sounds of a busy city. You may also catch a glimpse of the Nile as you make your way through Cairo.

Once you reach the hotel, check in and get comfortable. There’s nothing else planned for today, which gives you some time to recover from the flight. If you’re not too tired, you can go out for a short walk around the hotel or just stay in and relax.

Accommodation: Cairo Hotel, Partial Nile View Room

After breakfast, head out to Giza. This is the day you finally get to see the Pyramids of Giza in person. You’ll visit the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the Pyramid of Chephren, and the Pyramid of Mykerinus, and have some time to walk around the plateau.

The pyramids are much bigger than they look in photos, and standing close to them gives you a completely different idea of their size.

The Great Sphinx is also part of today’s visit. It’s just a short distance from the pyramids and is one of those places where you’ll probably want to stop for a few photos.

If you’re interested, you can also add a camel or horseback ride around the plateau. It’s optional, so you can decide on the day.

After Giza, have lunch at a local restaurant.Then it’s time for the Grand Egyptian Museum. There’s a lot to see inside, from large statues and jewelry to smaller objects that give you an idea of what everyday life was like in ancient Egypt. The museum also houses the treasures of King Tutankhamun.

After the visit, return to the hotel and enjoy the evening however you like.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch

After breakfast, check out and head to Cairo International Airport for your flight to Hurghada. When you arrive, our representative will meet you and take you to your hotel. There’s no sightseeing planned for the rest of the day, so you can take it easy.

Hurghada is a nice change after Cairo. The pace is slower, the Red Sea is right there, and most people come here simply to relax and enjoy the beach. You can spend some time by the pool, sit by the sea, or just stay at the hotel and rest. If you’ve had a long travel day, honestly, doing nothing for a few hours is probably a good idea.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Overnight: Hurghada

4

Today is completely free in Hurghada. There’s no set sightseeing schedule, so you can spend the day at the hotel and make use of the facilities. Relax by the pool, enjoy the beach, or take your time over breakfast and lunch.

If you don’t want to stay at the resort all day, you can also choose one of the optional excursions available on the Red Sea. It’s up to you how you want to spend the day.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

5

After breakfast, you have another free morning in Hurghada.You can stay at the hotel, or you can join an optional snorkeling trip if you want to spend some time out on the Red Sea.

The trip usually takes you by boat to one of the popular snorkeling areas around Hurghada. The water is clear, and you’ll have the chance to see coral reefs and different kinds of fish.

You don’t need to be an expert swimmer to enjoy the trip. There’s time to get in the water, swim around, relax on the boat, and enjoy the day without having to rush from one place to another.

After the boat trip, return to the hotel. The rest of the day is free. You can go back to the beach or pool, have a quiet afternoon, or simply enjoy the hotel.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Overnight: Hurghada

Today will be a longer day, so after an early breakfast, leave Hurghada and drive to Luxor.The trip takes you away from the Red Sea and into the Nile Valley. The landscape changes along the way, and you’ll start seeing more farmland and villages as you get closer to Luxor.

Your first stop is Karnak Temple. Karnak is a huge complex, so there’s plenty to see. You’ll walk through areas filled with enormous columns, statues, obelisks, courtyards, and ancient carvings. It’s one of the places where you really get a sense of how large and important ancient Thebes was.

After visiting Karnak, head to the viewing location arranged for 2027 Solar Eclipse in Egypt.The eclipse is expected to begin at around 12:00 PM, with the maximum phase at approximately 1:00 PM.

This will be the unusual part of the trip. You’re not just visiting Luxor to see the temples; you’ll also be here for a rare astronomical event. Watching the eclipse from the Nile Valley, with Luxor’s ancient landscape around you, will make the experience quite different from a normal day of sightseeing.

After the eclipse, continue to Luxor Temple.The temple is located in the middle of the modern city, so you’ll see a very different atmosphere here compared with Karnak. You’ll walk among ancient statues and columns while the sounds of modern Luxor continue outside.

Once you finish the visit, have some time for lunch before starting the drive back to Hurghada.You’ll arrive back at the hotel in the evening and have the rest of the night to relax after the long day.

Meals: Breakfast

Overnight: Hurghada
