Step back in time and discover the ancient wonders of Egypt on a full-day tour from Makadi to Cairo. Travel in comfort in an air-conditioned vehicle and experience the timeless beauty of Cairo's most iconic landmarks with a professional Egyptologist guide by your side.

Your adventure begins with a hotel pickup from Makadi and a scenic drive to Cairo. Upon arrival, your first stop will be at the Egyptian Museum, home to more than 120,000 artifacts, including the golden treasures of Tutankhamun, ancient mummies, statues, and artifacts that bring the pharaohs' world to life. Your guide will explain the fascinating history behind each exhibit, giving you an in-depth understanding of Egypt’s rich cultural heritage.

Next, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant before heading to the Giza Plateau to witness one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World — the Pyramids of Giza. Explore the majestic pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, and walk in the shadows of greatness.

Afterward, stand in awe before the Great Sphinx, a mysterious limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a king, guarding the pyramids for over 4,500 years. You'll also have the chance to visit the nearby Valley Temple, part of the pyramid complex.

You may optionally enjoy a short Nile boat trip or stop by a papyrus or perfume shop for souvenirs before heading back.

Finally, relax on the journey back to Makadi, where you'll be dropped off at your hotel in the evening — filled with unforgettable memories of ancient Egypt.
