Your private Egyptologist guide will warmly greet you at the Port Said cruise exit, ushering you into a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. We journey directly to Cairo, where the wonders of ancient Egypt await. Our first stop is the legendary Giza Plateau. Here, you'll be captivated by the sheer scale of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, a monument built over 4,500 years ago, containing secrets of pharaonic afterlife.
