You will discover the breathtaking Pyramids of Giza (Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure) along with the mysteries of the Great Sphinx, the iconic monument that has stood tall for thousands of years.

Then, you’ll head to the Papyrus Institute and Oil Factory, where you can uncover the secrets of ancient crafts and purchase unique souvenirs.

There’s also an opportunity to enjoy an optional boat tour on the tranquil waters of the Nile (for an additional $10 paid directly to the guide), where you’ll sail and witness Cairo’s landmarks from a different perspective.

Have you ever dreamed of standing before the pyramids and enjoying a cruise on the Nile?

You will pause for a delicious buffet lunch, where you can savor the flavors of exquisite Egyptian dishes.

After a day full of discoveries, you’ll return to the hotel around 01:00 AM. Departure from Cairo will be between 16:00 and 17:00, depending on traffic and checkpoints.

The order of activities may change according to the guide’s directions and the flow of the tour, ensuring you enjoy all the attractions to the fullest.

What moment do you expect to be etched in your memory after this delightful journey?

During the boat tour, tourists who choose not to participate can wait for the others on the bus, in accordance with local tourism regulations. Please be aware that guides may offer certain items for sale throughout the tour, which is a common practice in Egypt. We do not have control over the quality or pricing of these products.

 

For health reasons, the driver may close the restroom on the bus, citing a malfunction. We recommend utilizing restrooms at bus stations or near tourist sites, where the typical cost is 10 Egyptian pounds. Restrooms are free during lunch breaks. If an urgent need arises and the restroom is closed, you can contact the reservations department for assistance.

 

Will you seize the opportunity for the boat tour, or do you prefer to relax and enjoy the views from the bus?

The itinerary can be tailored to accommodate a private tour with a personal vehicle and guide, offering you greater flexibility to customize your journey. The cost for this service is $270 for a small car, which includes both a driver and a guide, along with an additional $35 per participant (or $20 for children) based on the standard program.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Your price is so low… Doesn’t it affect the quality of the service?
Yes, our prices are indeed among the lowest, but this does not affect the quality of the services provided. We work as an online company for booking excursions for very large organizers in Egypt, which allows us to offer suitable and competitive prices due to the large flow of tourists. By contacting us, you receive high-quality service directly, without unnecessary overpayments to intermediaries.
The organizers have a variety of vehicles in their fleet: cars, minivans and comfortable buses. All vehicles are equipped with air conditioning and safety systems. For long trips, buses with toilets are provided. In addition, the equipment constantly undergoes technical and sanitary inspection, and also meets all the requirements of a tourist permit. Drivers undergo mandatory checks with the tourist police before each long trip.
We work without prepayment. All group excursions are paid for directly on the bus or during the excursion. Exceptions are individual excursions, as well as tours where you need to book airline tickets or issue documents that require prepayment. Basic programs are paid for during the transfer or at the beginning of the excursion. You do not need to look for someone to pay – the organizer’s employee will come to you. Payment is possible in cash in dollars, euros and Egyptian pounds. For your convenience, transfers to a bank card in rubles, hryvnias and euros at the current exchange rate or to a crypto wallet in USDT are also provided, which can be made in advance. You can find more detailed information about payment and refund methods here.
Egypt is a country with strict regulations, especially in the tourism sector. In order for vehicles or yachts to go on an excursion, it is necessary to obtain the relevant permits from the police and military on a daily basis. If the organizers do not have a license to engage in tourism activities, they will not be able to obtain these permits. Therefore, for some excursions, we may request your details or photos of vouchers and passports (this applies to sea excursions in Sharm El Sheikh, individual excursions and some group excursions if travel outside the city is required. For other excursions, permits are issued only for the number of participants, and passport details are not required).
Unfortunately, some hotel guides try to convince tourists that insurance does not apply to tour organizers other than their tour company. This is completely untrue. Firstly, your travel insurance covers the entire territory of Egypt, just like the tour companies. Secondly, if you travel by ship, bus or other transport, the organizer bears full insurance liability for passengers. Otherwise, he will not receive permission to engage in tourist activities. Egypt has strict tourist regulations, and permits are required before each excursion.
We always remind you that it is important to check your belongings and not to forget them when you get off the bus or yacht at the end of the excursion. If you lose something, it will be quite difficult to return it, as the transport leaves for cleaning, and there are difficulties with Egyptian logistics. Of course, we will try to help you find your lost things, but we cannot guarantee their return 100%. In case of finding the item, the cost of delivery will be from $ 5 to $ 10. Please be careful!
We receive a large number of excursion bookings from tourists every day, so most excursions are held either daily or on certain days of the week according to the schedule indicated in the description of each program. After booking, we will inform you of the exact time when you will be picked up from your hotel. Most excursions are held in small hotel groups, similar to those organized by tour operators, but with one significant advantage: our prices are lower from 40% to 60%. Our organizers offer basic excursions in Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh, focused on Russian-speaking tourists.
Please note that photographers accompanying excursions act as independent representatives of their photo studios and are not associated with our online service or program organizers. All agreements regarding photography and payment are discussed directly with the photographer. We recommend that you carefully check the services provided and always obtain the photographer’s contact information before making a payment. If you do not plan to use their services, we recommend that you inform the photographer in advance to avoid misunderstandings or interference from them.
