Overview
Trade the Red Sea for the Nile on a single unforgettable day. An early transfer from your Sharm El Sheikh hotel brings you to the airport for the short flight to Cairo, where an Egyptologist guide is waiting to make every stop count. Stand at the foot of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, take in the full three-pyramid panorama of the Giza Plateau, and come face to face with the enigmatic Sphinx.
Inside the Egyptian Museum you will walk among pharaonic statues, gilded coffins and the treasures of the mummy halls, before there is time to haggle for souvenirs in the lantern-lit lanes of the Khan El-Khalili bazaar. Because you fly both ways, there is no overnight bus and far more time at the monuments — the relaxed way to tick off Egypt's greatest icons and still be back in Sharm by bedtime.
