All about the trip

Start your day with a private pick-up from your hotel in Cairo. Your first stop will be the impressive Egyptian Museum featuring artifacts from the pharaonic period. The museum displays a rare collection of 5 000 years of art which is considered the largest and the most precious collection of Egyptian art in the world. Over 250 000 genuine artifacts are presented, including an exhibit dedicated to Tutankhamen collection of treasure, gold, and jewelry which was enclosed in his tomb for over 3 500 years before it was discovered in the 1920s.

Your next stop will be Mohamed Ali Alabaster Mosque inside the Citadel of Saladin. Continue driving to the area of Islamic Cairo, where you will be able to explore Khan el-Khalili, Cairo’s old bazaar. Shops in this district are legendary for their fine brassware, copper, perfumes, leather, silver, gold, antiquities, and more.
