Overview

This carefully crafted 5-day Cairo tour with a full-day Luxor excursion by flight is an ideal option for travelers with limited time who want to experience both Egypt's greatest city and its most significant ancient sites in Upper Egypt.

Discover the open-air museum of Memphis, Egypt's original capital and seat of power for the Old Kingdom Pharaohs, where the colossal Colossus of Ramses II dominates the museum grounds. Back in Cairo, explore the world-famous Egyptian Museum, the medieval fortress of the Citadel of Saladin, the Coptic churches of Old Cairo, and the legendary Khan El Khalili Bazaar.

On Day 4, fly to Luxor for a spectacular full-day excursion covering both the East Bank (Karnak and Luxor Temples) and the West Bank (Valley of the Kings, Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon) before returning to Cairo the same evening.

This is Egypt's history at its finest — efficiently and expertly delivered.
