4 Days in Cairo: Day-by-Day Itinerary

The table shows the main stops and meals for each day:

Day Main stops Meals
Day 1 Airport greeting, Nile dinner cruise Dinner
Day 2 Giza, Grand Egyptian Museum Breakfast, lunch
Day 3 Citadel, Royal Mummies, Khan El Khalili Breakfast, lunch
Day 4 Airport transfer Breakfast

Days 2 and 3 are the sightseeing days.

Day 2 is the fullest. You begin on the Giza Plateau with the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple. The rest of the morning goes to the Grand Egyptian Museum and its Tutankhamun galleries. After lunch you return to the hotel.

Day 3 covers Islamic Cairo and the royal mummies. The Salah El Din Citadel and the Muhammad Ali Mosque come first, followed by the Royal Mummies' Hall at the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. After lunch you walk Al-Muizz Street, a UNESCO World Heritage site, to the Khan El Khalili Bazaar.

What Does the 4 Days Private Cairo Tour Package Include?

The price covers 3 nights in a Cairo hotel, your Egyptologist guide, every transfer in the itinerary, entrance fees and the meals above. Prices start from $495 per person; the price table below shows the Comfort, Premium, Luxury and Signature hotel levels.

International flights to and from Cairo and tips are paid separately. We send a tipping guide before you travel, so you know what to expect.

Is 4 Days Enough for Cairo?

Yes, for the main sights. Giza, the Grand Egyptian Museum, the Citadel, the Royal Mummies' Hall and Islamic Cairo all fit into days 2 and 3, and you keep one hotel and take no flights. The trade-off is pace: day 2 covers 3 major sites, and days 1 and 4 are mostly arrival and departure. For a slower pace, the 5 days Cairo tour adds Coptic Cairo and an extra night.

Who Is This Private Cairo Tour For?

The tour suits first-time visitors, couples, families and older travellers who want one hotel, no flights and a guide who works at their pace. This plan stays in Cairo. To add Luxor or Aswan, build a tailor-made Egypt trip around these 4 days.

Prefer to join a group? The 4 days Cairo group tour starts from $455 per person, and you travel with other guests.

Expert Advice

Plan Your Journey

Everything you need to know about this experience in Egypt.

1
How much does a 4 days Cairo tour package cost per person?
Prices start from $495 per person, listed in US dollars. The final price depends on your hotel level and group size, and holiday surcharges apply at Christmas, New Year and Easter. Check the price table, then send us your dates and we confirm the total for your trip.
2
How do I get from Cairo airport to my hotel?
Your driver waits with a name sign whatever time you land, and a private car takes you to your hotel. This pickup is included in every package. The drive to downtown Cairo or Giza takes about 45 to 60 minutes, depending on traffic.
3
How much does an Egypt visa cost for a Cairo tour?
The Egypt tourist visa costs $30 USD and grants a single 30-day stay. You pay for it separately from the package. Apply for the e-Visa on the official visa2egypt.gov.eg portal, and check the requirements for your passport there before you book your flights.
4
Are there discounts for children on a 4 days Cairo tour package?
Yes. Children aged 6 to 11 pay 50% of the adult rate, and from age 12 the full adult rate applies. For children under 6, send us their ages when you enquire and we confirm the exact rate for your group before you book.
5
What time does the touring day start?
Touring days start after breakfast, usually between 7 and 8 a.m., when your guide and driver pick you up at the hotel. Days 2 and 3 follow that pattern, with breakfast at the hotel included each morning. Day 1 depends on your flight arrival, and day 4 on your departure time.
6
What should I wear to visit mosques like the Muhammad Ali Mosque?
Cover your shoulders and knees, remove your shoes at the door, and women also cover their hair with a scarf. On day 3 you visit the Muhammad Ali Mosque inside the Citadel, so dress for it that morning. Visits go best outside the 5 daily prayer times and the Friday midday prayer.
7
Can I bargain at Khan El Khalili, and how does it work?
Yes, bargaining is expected at Khan El Khalili, and the first price a seller quotes is usually well above what they accept. Counter with a lower offer instead of paying it. You reach the bazaar at the end of day 3, and the Khan El Khalili Bazaar guide has more on the market.
8
Is entrance to the Grand Egyptian Museum included in the tour?
Yes, entrance to the Grand Egyptian Museum is included in the tour. The museum opened to the public in 2025 and is the largest archaeological museum in the world devoted to a single civilization. It shows the complete Tutankhamun collection, more than 5,000 artefacts, in one place.
9
Can I add Luxor or Aswan to 4 days in Cairo?
Yes. Nearly every Travel Joy Egypt tour is private and customisable. The other 4 days Egypt tours include one that adds Luxor after 2 days in Cairo, with a domestic flight between the cities. Tell us which cities you want and we build the route.
10
How far are the Giza Pyramids from central Cairo?
The Giza Pyramids are about 13 miles from central Cairo, a drive of 45 to 60 minutes. Your guide and driver take you there after breakfast on day 2, and the Grand Egyptian Museum sits next to the pyramids on the Giza Plateau.
