Hotel Pick-up
Your private, air-conditioned vehicle will collect you from your hotel in Cairo (Downtown, Maadi, or Giza area) at your scheduled time, accompanied by your private, licensed Egyptologist tour guide.
Grand Egyptian Museum
Arrive at the Grand Egyptian Museum, located near the Giza Plateau, one of the largest archaeological museums in the world. With your private guide, explore the museum's main galleries, which trace the story of Ancient Egypt from the prehistoric era through the Greco-Roman period.
The highlight of the visit is the dedicated Tutankhamun Galleries, showcasing the full collection of treasures recovered from the boy king's tomb — including his iconic golden mask, ceremonial thrones, jewellery, and personal belongings — many displayed together for the first time.
You'll also visit the hall housing one of Khufu's Solar Boats, a full-size ancient Egyptian vessel believed to have been built to carry the pharaoh's soul across the sky with the sun god Ra.
Your guide will provide historical context and answer questions throughout, at a relaxed, private pace — no group schedules to follow.
