The Egyptian museum
is the icon of the greatness & deification of pharaohs’ Kings & Queens. You must know that neither one day nor even few days are enough to cover more than 120.000 rare items of original statues & accessories of the royal families without mentioning those are stored. Tour among fossils, jewelry, mummies, sarcophagi and ancient Egypt maps. The two-floor exhibition has no empty inch. While the ground floor contains the authentic statues of the arch kings & queens in chronological order, collects the upper floor their bodies themselves plus many exhibits of Pharaohs’ collection. For example the impressive collection of mysterious boy king of Tut-Ench-Amun, which was enclosed to his tomb till 1920s when the tomb was excavated. Only in the Egyptian Museum you have the chance to see an over than 5000 years dead body in his shrunken form and a long weak hair. It is a kind of fast & furious view.
Lunch time
You must have heard a lot about what the Egyptian food tastes. Why do not you try it by yourself? What about a classic high-quality local restaurant?! Try a traditional food and tell us your opinion. Let’s go!
The Three Pyramids of Giza & the Sphinx
What makes the Great Pyramid of Giza the “Pole Star” among the rest of hundreds pyramids around the world is its genius architecture that is too complicated to be understood. Even some of scientists have dedicated their life only to puzzle out how the ancient Egyptians constructed around 2,300,000 stone blocks that weigh from 20 to 30 tons each and there are even some blocks that weigh over 50 tons. Unfortunately there are only suppositions. Was the Great Pyramid built to be just a tomb or had it a function of astronomical observatory is a matter of argument too. Away from its scientific value you will be fascinated by the massive shining limestone object standing in front of your eyes. The eye-catching Sphinx which stands beside the pyramids has a secret indeed. Built by the King Chephren, who has built the second Pyramid as well, it belongs to the Old Kingdom which is dates back 5000 years. Watch how it concluded the power and the intelligence as it is sculptured accurately of a pharaoh’s head and a lion’s body. You must have known now why this civilization keeps the archeologists occupied since the French scientist Champollion decoded the Stone of Rashid in 1800.
You must be waiting now for our usually offer in all Cairo excursions. Here you are! 15 min of riding camel for free in the pyramids’ valley. Sit behind the hump of an Arabian camel and enjoy slowly and closely watching of the Great Pyramid as well as the sphinx.
Khan Elkhalili Market
Keep something from the Egyptian civilization to remind you always with your special day. So we will now drop by the oldest and richest market in the Middle East. So crowded, so colored and full of goods such as symbolic statues, souvenirs, carpets, papyrus, traditional clothes and jewelry. Tour through the famous market as fast as your legs would carry you. We are already waiting for you but you have a ship which is waiting as well.
