Overnight Tour to Cairo's Highlights from Hurghada



Explore Cairo in a relaxed way and without the stress of planning and organizing your transportation and activities. During this 2-day tour, you'll immerse yourself in the beauty, history and culture of the city as you admire its remarkable monuments.

Day one: start your journey with a scenic drive from your hotel in Hurghada towards Cairo, along the Red Sea coast. Once arrived in Giza, you'll be introduced to the last remaining wonder of the ancient world, the Pyramids. Marvel at these colossal tombs and unearth its secrets before being amazed by the Great Sphinx. Following this, a set lunch awaits you at a local restaurant before checking into your hotel. Later, you'll spend a fun evening of entertainment on the Nile with a dinner cruise. You'll listen to traditional music accompanied by a belly dancer, witness a Tanoora show and enjoy an open buffet dinner.

Day two: you'll leave your hotel and travel towards Salah El-din Citadel, an icon of Cairo that housed Egyptian rulers for nearly 700 years. From there, journey through the fascinating Old Cairo towards the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, rich with exceptional treasures, including the mummies and the gilded mummy mask of Yuya and Thuya—among the most spectacular ever found in the Valley of the Kings—remarkable for their extraordinary preservation and lifelike features. After lunch, if the weather is good, take the opportunity to experience a Nile felucca tour, rounding off your immersive Cairo adventure.

Important to know

Extra fees to be paid on-site:

  • Please note that you'll gain access to the pyramids area, but the entrance fees to get inside the pyramids (Cheops, Mykerinos or Kefren) are not included. The tickets available are limited and must be purchased on site, so access is not guaranteed. The adult entrance fee for the Cheops Great Pyramid is around EGP 1500 and EGP 750 for children under 12. The adult entrance fee for Mykerinos or Kefren is around EGP 280 and EGP 140 for children under 12

  • The shared tour option is only available on selected dates. The private tour takes place every day. If you're a solo traveller and want to book a private tour, choose the "Private Tour" option (minimum age is 12 years). The 6-people private group is open to a maximum of 15 participants
  • The tour will be led in English if the minimum number of people for the tour in the other languages is not met
  • If possible, you may want to arrange a take-away breakfast box and late dinner with your hotel reception before the tour date

  • The Nile felucca tour is subject to weather conditions
  • The Hall of Tutankhamun at the Egyptian Museum (including the Golden Mask and Golden Sarcophagus) will be closed from 20 October 2025 as the collection is being transferred to the new Grand Egyptian Museum. The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, however, remains rich with exceptional treasures, including the mummies and the gilded mummy mask of Yuya and Thuya—among the most spectacular ever found in the Valley of the Kings—remarkable for their extraordinary preservation and lifelike features
