This trip is all about the Egyptians’ love for all things beautiful. How they built giant pyramids and filled them with treasures to take with them to the netherworld. The Nile River Cruise takes us on a journey covering all the great monuments in Egypt. Luxor’s hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings tombs, Cairo’s Ottoman landmarks like Muhammad Ali Mosque and the Egyptian Museum, the overall journey of the must-see’s at Egypt.
Day 1 : Cairo
Meet and greet with our representative will be followed by them assisting you through the immigration process.
Day 2 : Pyramids, Sphinx, Khan El Khalili
After an early breakfast, set off to visit one of the Seven Wonders - Great Pyramids of Giza: Cheops, Chephren and Mycerinus.
A single pyramid is built with 2.300.000 blocks, each weighing an average of two and a half tones. If reading this is awe inspiring, imagine those who have visited here! Great Sphinx of Giza is the next stop. It’s an unforgettable statue combining the head of a Pharaoh with a lion's body, made with natural yellowish limestone and standing 65 feet-high and 187 feet-long, this. It’s an established fact that every monument in Egypt is “incredibly larger than life”.
A quick visit to papyrus institute or a perfume shop can make your day extra special, but complete the very eventful day with a visit to the Egyptian Museum and the Khan El Khalili Bazaars.
And that’s a wrap for the day!
Interesting Fact:
Head to Cheops Pyramid as its interior burial chambers are open to all. So naturally more interesting. The museum is where you get to see Tutankhamen treasures and the mummies.
