Journey through 5,000 years of Egyptian history in a single day, from the world's finest collection of Pharaonic treasures to the grandeur of Islamic Cairo. Step inside the Egyptian Museum to admire royal mummies, gilded artefacts and monumental statues, then climb to the historic Citadel of Salah El Din for sweeping city views and a visit to the iconic Mohamed Ali Mosque. Wrap up the day wandering the atmospheric alleyways of Khan El Khalili, Cairo's centuries-old bazaar in the heart of Islamic Cairo. A private guide and vehicle keep the pace comfortable and flexible throughout. Perfect for travellers wanting a well-rounded introduction to both ancient and Islamic Cairo in one trip.
We'll pick you up from your hotel and drive you to the Egyptian Museum, which stands as one of the most renowned museums in the world, home to the largest and most comprehensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. Its extraordinary holdings include royal mummies, monumental statues, exquisite jewellery, and a wide array of everyday artefacts from the Pharaonic era. Then, we will transfer to the Citadel for a private guided tour of Salah al-Din's 12th-century fort: built to defend the city against Crusader attacks and the seat of government for almost 700 years. Visit the Muhammad Ali Mosque, dating back to the 19th century, and enjoy a panoramic view of the city from the Citadel's terrace. Then lunch will be served in one of the local restaurants, and we will transfer you to explore Khan El Khalili, Cairo's old bazaar, which is located in the heart of Islamic Cairo, then transfer you back to your hotel.
