What to expect

If you want to explore Cairo without the stress of planning or organising anything, this seamless tour is the perfect choice. Discover the beauty, history, and culture of Egypt's vibrant capital and experience its most iconic landmarks in a single day.

Your journey begins with an evening pick-up from your accommodation in Luxor and a transfer to the train station to board the night train to Cairo. Upon arrival at Giza Station, you'll be greeted by a local operator's representative and your professional Egyptologist guide.

Feel the energy of Cairo as you head straight to the legendary Giza Pyramids, the last remaining wonder of the ancient world, plus the Great Sphinx. After taking in these magnificent monuments, enjoy a relaxing buffet lunch at a local restaurant - the ideal moment to unwind and recharge.

Next, get ready for a highlight of your trip, a visit to the new Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the largest archaeological museum in the world and Egypt's newest pride. Explore its stunning architecture, vast galleries, and groundbreaking displays that bring ancient history to life like never before.

Marvel at the Grand Staircase lined with monumental statues, interactive exhibits, and the extraordinary Hall of Tutankhamun, showcasing his treasures in their full glory for the first time in history. The museum visit is followed by an overnight train journey back to Luxor and a comfortable transfer to your hotel.
