The tour combines a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum with the iconic Giza Pyramids, offering an introduction to Egypt’s ancient history and archaeological heritage.

Giza and Cairo — The Heart of Egyptian History and Culture

Giza is a major city adjacent to Cairo and forms part of the Greater Cairo metropolitan area. Giza is home to the iconic Great Sphinx, which stands beside the Giza pyramids.

The Giza Plateau served as an important royal funerary complex during ancient Egypt’s Old Kingdom, featuring pyramids, tombs, temples, and other monuments.

Archaeological discoveries around Giza have provided valuable insights into the lives of the workers, officials, and communities associated with the pyramid complexes. Today, Giza is internationally recognised for its archaeological heritage and its proximity to some of Egypt’s most famous ancient monuments.

Cairo is Egypt’s capital and a major centre for culture, museums, and the arts. Cairo is often known by the nickname “the City of a Thousand Minarets,” reflecting its rich Islamic architectural heritage. Cairo is one of Africa’s largest urban centres, picturesquely located on both sides of one of the longest rivers in the world — the Nile.

That is why the Cairo & Grand Egyptian Museum VIP tour from Hurghada is so highly appreciated.

Grand Egyptian Museum — The New Pearl of Egypt

The first and most anticipated stop of the tour is the Grand Egyptian Museum. Located in Giza, just two kilometers from the pyramid complex, the Grand Egyptian Museum is a major museum dedicated to the civilisation of ancient Egypt.

The museum presents a wide range of objects and displays illustrating ancient Egyptian history, art, and culture across different periods. At the very entrance to the huge building, guests are greeted by a monumental statue of Ramses II, which makes a colossal impression.

The museum complex is associated with the display of the Khufu solar boat, an important ancient Egyptian vessel.

Discover the treasures associated with Tutankhamun, including exquisite jewellery, ceremonial objects, and other artefacts from his tomb, subject to the current exhibition arrangements. The objects were discovered in Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922 by the archaeological team led by Howard Carter.

Giza Pyramid Complex and the Great Sphinx

The next exciting destination of our trip — the Giza pyramids include the Great Pyramid of Giza, the only surviving monument of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. You can’t be in Egypt and not see the pyramids!

The pyramids are an undisputed symbol of this country. They are monumental tombs of rulers, which in the beliefs of the Egyptians were supposed to provide them with immortality and passage to the afterlife.

The Great Pyramid of Giza, built for Pharaoh Khufu (Cheops), is the largest of the three main pyramids on the Giza Plateau.

The construction of these funerary structures testifies to the greatness and enormous skill of the ancient builders.

The pyramids, thousands of years old, are in the modern world the most magnificent testimony to antiquity and the power of the pharaohs’ state. Every year, millions of tourists visit Cairo and Giza. During our tour, we will approach the mighty pyramids of Cheops, Khafre, and Menkaure to feel their magic — and finally see the Great Sphinx with your own eyes!

This phenomenal creature from mythology is usually depicted as a lion with a human head. Its origins date back to the time of the Egyptian Old Kingdom. There are theories attributing the Sphinx’s likeness to the builder of the structure — Khufu (Cheops).

Oriental Perfumery — The Magic of Fragrances

The itinerary also includes a visit to a local perfumery, where you can learn about Egyptian fragrance oils and explore locally produced perfumes and cosmetics.
