Your Egypt tour begins the moment our friendly tour leader welcomes you at Sokhna Port. You'll travel in comfort by air-conditioned vehicle as you head towards some of the most iconic sites Egypt has to offer.
Start with the legendary pyramids of Giza, including the mighty Great Pyramid of Khufu-the only remaining wonder of the ancient world. Proceed further to something slightly smaller but equally magnificent-The Pyramid of Chephren and the little Mycerinus Pyramid-that overlooked the great Giza Plateau. Very close, behold the ageless Great Sphinx: a huge statue with a lion's body and a human head, and visit the Valley Temple, which was used in funerary rituals for royalty.
Pause for a traditional Egyptian lunch at a high-quality local restaurant. Enjoy grilled meats, fresh salads, and a cool soft drink—all while soaking in the local flavours with the guidance and company of your expert tour guide.
The afternoon takes you to Saqqara, home to the Step Pyramid of Djoser—the earliest stone building in the world. You'll also visit the Pyramid of Teti, a relic of the Sixth Dynasty, and explore the fascinating Tombs of the Nobles, where intricate carvings depict scenes from daily life in ancient Egypt.
Upon the conclusion of stimulating shore excursions in Sokhna, your guide will drive you back to the cruise ship at The Port of Sokhna with memories of Egypt's ancient wonders.
