+6Cairo by Plane: Pyramids & Egyptian Museum – Hurghada
Description
Turn a long road trip into a comfortable day out: fly from Hurghada to Cairo and see some of Egypt's greatest treasures in one day. The trip runs daily and takes about 16 hours.
After hotel pickup in Hurghada, we take you to the airport for your domestic flight to Cairo. On arrival, your Egyptologist guide meets you, and you continue in a private air-conditioned vehicle to the Giza Plateau.
The Giza Plateau, on the edge of Cairo, is home to the only surviving wonder of the ancient world.
Stand in front of the Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure and learn about the civilization that built them. Then visit the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple. After lunch at a local Egyptian restaurant, continue to the Egyptian Museum, with its statues, royal treasures and archaeological finds.
Flights, airport transfers, lunch and bottled water are included. Entry inside the Great Pyramid, drinks with lunch and tips are extra. Entrance tickets to the Giza Pyramids area and the Egyptian Museum are included.
Good to know: a valid passport or accepted ID is required for the flight, and the itinerary may change with flight schedules or traffic. Bring sunglasses, sunscreen and a hat. In the evening, you fly back to Hurghada and we take you to your hotel. Your exact pickup time is confirmed before the tour.
