Cairo - Pyramids and Grand Egyptian Museum

A day bringing together the two most important visits in Egypt: the Giza plateau and the new Grand Egyptian Museum, opened after more than twenty years of construction. The transfer sets off from Hurghada, in an air-conditioned vehicle with a French-speaking guide.

The morning covers the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, with a panoramic stop that takes in all three in their original alignment, then the Sphinx and its funerary temple. The afternoon is spent at the museum, the largest ever devoted to a single civilisation: more than a hundred thousand pieces, the entire treasure of Tutankhamun gathered for the first time in a single gallery, a royal hall dedicated to the mummies and a grand scenographic staircase.

Good to know: pickup starts around 1.30am and you are back at your hotel around 10pm, with exact times set by where your hotel is. The child rate is 50 €, applied when we confirm your booking. Not included: drinks at the restaurant, entry inside the Great Pyramid of Khufu, and the felucca ride on the Nile, offered at 10 € per person.
