Full description
This private day trip swaps a hotel-lobby wake-up call for a real look at ancient Egypt: your driver collects you before dawn for the desert crossing to Cairo, then it's straight into the Grand Egyptian Museum's halls of pharaonic treasures, a plate of home-style Egyptian cooking, and an afternoon standing beneath the Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx. A quick pass through Old Cairo's older streets rounds out the day before the drive back to your hotel that evening.
