Your adventure begins with a comfortable, air-conditioned drive from Marsa Alam to Cairo. Relax as you travel through Egypt’s desert landscapes, with the journey taking about 5-6 hours. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by your guide and transferred to your 4-star hotel in Cairo. After check-in, enjoy a leisurely evening—whether you relax at the hotel or explore the vibrant streets and local markets, Cairo's energy will captivate you right away.

After breakfast at the hotel, our journey starts with a visit to the awe-inspiring Great Pyramids of Giza, where you’ll stand before the ancient marvels that have mystified the world for millennia. The Sphinx, ever watchful, guards these monuments, its enigmatic smile a symbol of Egypt’s mysterious past. As your guide shares stories of their construction and significance, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time. After lunch, head to the Egyptian Museum, where you’ll gaze upon treasures that have survived thousands of years—most notably the dazzling relics of Tutankhamun. The evening promises more magic with an optional Nile dinner cruise, where you can enjoy a meal while the city’s illuminated monuments float by on the water, a perfect end to your day.

Today, delve into Cairo’s deep cultural roots. Start with a visit to the Citadel of salah Al-din, a historic fortress offering breathtaking panoramic views of the sprawling city below. The Muhammad Ali Mosque, with its stunning alabaster interior, will leave you in awe. In the afternoon, you’ll wander through the winding alleys of Islamic Cairo, where centuries-old mosques, hidden courtyards, and the Church of St. Sergius (a symbol of Egypt’s Christian heritage) await your exploration. The Amr Mosque, one of the oldest in Egypt, also adds to the spiritual atmosphere of this fascinating district. After an inspiring day, relax over dinner and reflect on the rich history you’ve just discovered.

Leave the hustle and bustle of Cairo behind and set off for the peaceful Fayoum Oasis, just 1.5 to 2 hours away. As you drive through Egypt’s beautiful countryside, you’ll witness the land’s changing landscapes—lush greenery giving way to the serene desert. Upon arrival, enjoy a leisurely lunch at a local café, where you can savor fresh, regional dishes. In the afternoon, head to Lake Qarun, where you can relax by the water, take in the beautiful scenery, and watch the graceful birds that call the lake home. As the sun sets, check into your hotel in Fayoum, where you can unwind in peace and enjoy a quiet dinner, far removed from the city’s frantic pace.

Fayoum is a treasure trove of natural beauty, and today you’ll explore two of its most famous sights. In the morning, visit Wadi El Rayan, a stunning desert reserve home to cascading waterfalls and unique wildlife. The tranquility of this hidden oasis is perfect for appreciating the quiet beauty of Egypt’s natural landscapes. After a picnic lunch, head to Wadi Al-Hitan (Valley of the Whales), a UNESCO World Heritage site where ancient whale fossils are preserved in the desert sands—an extraordinary testament to Earth’s deep past. The surreal desert landscape combined with the weight of history makes this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Return to your Fayoum accommodation in the evening to unwind, reflect on the day’s adventures, and enjoy a peaceful dinner.

This morning, say goodbye to the quiet charm of Fayoum as you return to Cairo. Along the way, you’ll pass through the lush countryside and small villages, experiencing a slower pace of life before the vibrant city energy calls you back. Once back in Cairo, the afternoon is yours to shop for souvenirs or visit any sights you missed. Explore the bustling markets of Khan El Khalili, where colorful goods and trinkets beckon, or enjoy some downtime at a local café. For your final evening in Cairo, indulge in a memorable dinner overlooking the city, celebrating the culmination of your Egyptian adventure.

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before checking out. You’ll be transferred to Cairo International Airport for your flight back to Marsa Alam or onward travel, taking with you unforgettable memories of Egypt’s ancient wonders, rich culture, and breathtaking landscapes.
