Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Situated at Al-Tahrir Square in the heart of Cairo, the most renowned Antiquities museum in Egypt is home to the world's most extensive collection of Pharaonic artifacts. Within its 42 rooms, visitors can marvel at a diverse array of statues, tables, coffins, papyrus, and coins. Among its prized possessions are two rooms dedicated to the display of mummies belonging to kings and members of the royal family of Ancient Egypt, including the famed King Tutankhamen collection of treasures.

Stop 2

Dating back to 2400 B.C. from the 4th dynasty, the Giza Pyramid Complex is a remarkable ensemble comprising the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, along with their accompanying pyramid complexes. Notably, the Great Sphinx of Giza is also an integral part of this historically significant site.

Stop 3

Attributed to King Chephren, the Sphinx is the world's largest statue, towering at 73 meters in length, 19 meters in width, and 20 meters in height. As the oldest known monumental sculpture, it holds a significant historical value. In Arabic, it is referred to as "Abu Al Hol," and this remarkable creation, depicting a man with the body of a lion, has come to be known as the Sphinx.
