Itineraries

Your majestic day begins with a private pickup from Cairo International Airport. Your dedicated team will escort you in a private air-conditioned vehicle to explore the diverse history of this immortal city.

The journey starts in the heart of Cairo at the Egyptian Museum. Established in 1901, this iconic red-walled landmark was made into reality to hold the greatest monuments ever discovered. You will explore a world-class collection of Pharaonic artifacts, including the legendary treasures that have fascinated the world for over a century.

Next, you will ascend to the Cairo Citadel, a grand fortress constructed in 1182 AD by Salah El Din on the highest spot in the city. More than just a military stronghold, the Citadel is a vessel for the heart and soul of Cairo. It stands as an enduring symbol of strong character, housing enchanting mosques and museums that showcase the city's exquisite artistic taste.

Savor a delicious lunch at a Nile-view restaurant, enjoying the finest Egyptian flavors. Afterward, you will visit the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) in the golden city of Fustat. Spanning 490,000 square meters, this modern marvel showcases the entire timeline of Egypt using the most advanced display techniques, housing 50,000 artifacts and the sacred Royal Mummies Hall.

The afternoon leads you to the astral Al Muizz Street, a 10th-century Fatimid masterpiece that offers a true quest across time through its historic houses and art exhibits. This leads directly into the Khan El-Khalili Bazaar, the "House of Tales and Legends." Built between 1382 and 1389 AD, this golden center of commerce remains the finest place for shopping and witnessing the work of skilled artisans in the Middle East.

At the end of your enchanting tour, your private vehicle will transfer you back to Cairo Airport in time for your departure, leaving you with memories of a truly satisfying day in the city of wonders.
