Itinerary
A representative from Travel Joy Egypt will greet you beside the exit of Port Sokhna port, holding a sign with your name. Then a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle will transfer your group to Cairo, around a 1.5 hour drive.
Gaze upon the statuesque Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure in Giza. Afterwards, see the Great Sphinx dating to Khafre with its body of a lion and head of a pharaoh. The tour also includes the Valley Temple of Khafre. A filling meal will be provided at a local eatery.
Then continue to the expansive Grand Egyptian Museum housing over 250,000 artifacts across 5000 years of history, such as Tutankhamun's treasures sealed for millennia. Time permitting, the tour may also visit Khan El Khalili bazaar. After this enriching day, you will be driven back to Port Sokhna to rejoin your cruise ship. Please note: A complimentary shuttle will transport you 800 meters from ship to port entrance where your Travel Joy Egypt representative awaits.
