Grand Egyptian Museum & Pyramids by Plane – Safaga

Short on holiday days in Safaga but keen to see Cairo? Flying turns the long road into a quick hop, so you can visit the Grand Egyptian Museum, the Giza Pyramids and the Great Sphinx and still be back at your hotel the same evening. Departures run daily, and the full day lasts about 16 hours.

First, a driver collects you at your Safaga hotel and brings you to Hurghada International Airport. When your domestic flight lands in Cairo, a private car with air conditioning and an Egyptologist are already there.

Giza comes first. Look up at the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, the last ancient wonder that has survived, before you continue to the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple.

You eat at a local Egyptian restaurant, then spend time at the GEM. Few museums in the world are as large, and it is devoted to one civilization only: the Egypt of the pharaohs.

Booked for you: return flights, airport transfers, lunch, bottled water and tickets for the GEM and the Giza Pyramids area. Not booked: the Great Pyramid's interior, drinks at lunch, photos and tips.

Good to know: the airline needs a valid passport or accepted ID. Flight schedules can move, which can also shift the order of the day. After the flight back to Hurghada, your driver takes you south again to your hotel in Safaga. You receive the exact pickup time on WhatsApp or Telegram before the tour.
