What to expect

Embark on an exclusive private full-day tour by air from Sharm El Sheikh to the bustling heart of Cairo. This tour is designed for those seeking cultural depth, hidden gems, and refined comfort beyond the classic routes. Your adventure starts with a private transfer to Sharm Airport followed by a direct flight to Cairo, where a guide will be waiting to welcome you. Wander down the legendary El-Moez Street, one of the world’s oldest open-air museums, adorned with remarkable Islamic monuments that showcase centuries of architectural genius.

Explore the Qalawun Complex, Barquq Mosque, Al-Hakim Mosque, and more. Each site unveils a different aspect of Cairo’s religious, artistic, and urban development. Next, head over to Al-Azhar Park, a verdant oasis towering above Old Cairo, offering sweeping views over historic minarets and domes. Savour an authentic oriental lunch at a restaurant within the park, combining traditional flavours with one of the city’s most scenic vistas.

In the afternoon, delve into Egypt’s rich history at the Grand Egyptian Museum, the country's most ambitious cultural project and the largest archaeological museum in the world. Nestled against the Giza Plateau, the museum showcases Ancient Egypt on an unprecedented scale, from towering statues to immersive, cutting edge galleries. The visit reaches its climax with the complete treasures of Tutankhamun, displayed together for the first time in history.
