Early breakfast at the hotel in Cairo then start a guided tour to visit one of the Seven Wonders the great Pyramids of Giza; (Cheops, Chephren and Mycerinus) were reckoned by the Greeks to be one of the Seven Wonders of the World. A single pyramid is built with 2.300.000 blocks, each weighing an average of two and a half tones. In the face of such immensity, one cannot help but feel the wonder and awe that so many writers and artists have sought to convey over the centuries. The Cheops Pyramid is more interesting, because its interior burial chambers are open for inspection by the public. Not far from the Pyramids is the Great Sphinx of Giza, which dates from the time of Chephren (2620 BC). Hewn from natural yellowish limestone and standing 65 feet-high and 187 feet-long, this unforgettable statue combines the head of a Pharaoh with a lion's body. A quick visit to papyrus institute or a perfume shop can be arranged. Have your lunch in a local restaurant before heading to the Grand Egyptian Museum. Step into the world of ancient Egypt with a tour of the highly anticipated Grand Egyptian Museum, home to some of the most valuable treasures from this era. When you arrive, one of your first experiences is entering through the atrium, seeing the giant Ramses II statue, then walking up the Grand Staircase. From the staircase you go into the exhibition halls which are both chronological (history over time) and thematic (by ideas). There are multimedia and immersive experiences — so it’s not just static displays. Your tour provides a unique opportunity to witness a selection of the most impressive artifacts, including magnificent statues, royal regalia, and ancient monuments. Your knowledgeable guide will lead you on this journey back in time, sharing insights on the treasures you'll encounter along the way. Through the windows, visitors can enjoy a direct sightline to the Pyramids, integrating the museum experience with the surrounding archaeological landscape. Visit all major galleries including Tutankhamun exhibit, Enjoy the Solar boats of King Cheops. After the visit of the museum a short drive through the downtown will take you to Khan El Khalili bazaars; which is one of the most famous worldwide with its amazing narrow alleyways.
