With over 120,000 ancient Egyptian artefacts, this museum boasts the world’s most extensive collection of pharaonic antiquities. One of the most famous collections in the museum is that of King Tutankhamun, which includes his sarcophagus and gold burial mask. As the oldest archaeological museum in the Middle East, the Cairo Museum holds a special place in history. It houses an extensive collection from the Predynastic Period to the Greco-Roman Era. The history of the museum’s architecture is intriguing. It was created by French architect Marcel Dourgnon, who won a global contest in 1895. The museum opened in 1902 and is now a famous attraction in downtown Cairo, displaying some of the planet’s most stunning ancient works of art. The museum’s impressive collection includes the complete burials of Yuya and Thuya, Psusennes I and the treasures of Tanis, and the Narmer Palette, which is an invaluable artefact commemorating the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under one king. The museum’s collection also features the stunning statues of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, the great kings responsible for building the pyramids at the Giza plateau. With an extensive collection of papyri, coffins, and jewellery, the Cairo Museum remains a unique and expansive museum that is a true testament to Egypt’s rich history.
Our Egyptian Museum Tour will take us inside this massive and world-famous museum, where you’ll find the most important pieces of Egyptian history, including Pharaonic antiques and the treasure of Egypt’s best-known King, Tutankhamen. This museum is a fascinating place that allows you to see all the antiques that would have been buried in the ancient kings of Egypt’s tombs and pyramids and some of the mummified kings themselves. This museum has about 100 exhibition halls. There is a unique collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts, about 150 thousand items in these halls. Your tour guide will show you all the main exhibits in this vast museum. Also, he will give you free time to take pictures.
Following the visit to the Egyptian Museum, you will start the boat picnic on the Nile River. This Nile trip is an additional program; you can book it in advance through us! As soon as the boat picnic on the Nile ends, you will head to another city – Giza.

Agenda in Giza

Of course, the trip continues in Giza. The first stop is the restaurant, which offers an open buffet.
The group will then continue to the Giza Pyramid Complex, which has excellent pyramids and a Sphinx.
Our highly-trained Egyptologist tour guide will be there to give you any information you need on the Great Pyramid of Giza. Our guide will share the supposed construction methods, materials used, and the purpose behind the construction of the mysterious pyramids. The Giza complex is a set of buildings that include two mortuary temples, three smaller pyramids for Khufu’s wives, an even smaller pyramid, a raised causeway connecting the two temples, and smaller tombs for nobles.
On our Cairo Sightseeing Tour, we’ll also visit the Sphinx, a limestone statue of a mythical creature with a lion’s body and a human head. Our guide will inform you that the oldest known monumental sculpture in the world is believed to have been constructed by the ancient Egyptians of the Old Kingdom under the reign of Pharoh Khafra around 2558 BC, who also built the second Pyramid. This incredible statue is an impressive 20 meters high and 73 meters long.
We know that the Sphinx is an awe-inspiring sight and rich in history, and we want you to enjoy it to the fullest. The Sphinx has been highly respected in Egyptian history, with the ancient Egyptians viewing it as divine. Even today, it remains an enigmatic figure. Our guide will provide fundamental details such as its construction date and builder, which are still subject to debate. There are even speculations that some kings were laid to rest within its walls.
We’ll also be visiting Khafre’s Temples, which lie at the base of Khafre’s Pyramid, the second tallest Pyramid of Giza. We understand that these temples have remained in much better condition than other temples in the area and are the best example for us to explore. Our guide will share that the temple’s interior has been remarkably well-preserved.

What can one expect to see during a plane excursion from Makadi Bay to Cairo?

Egyptian Museum

The Egyptian Museum is the oldest archaeological museum in Egypt and the Middle East. It exhibits an extensive collection from the Predynastic Period to the Greco-Roman Period, including the world’s most comprehensive Pharaonic antiquities spanning 5,000 years of Egyptian history.

In 1895, a unique competition was held to design a building, with French architect Marcel Dourgnon emerging as the winner. The resulting museum was inaugurated in 1902 by Khedive Abbas Helmy II and has since become a notable landmark in downtown Cairo. It’s home to some of the world’s most extraordinary ancient masterpieces.

The museum’s collection is unrivalled. Visitors can see the complete burials of Yuya and Thuya, Psusennes I and the treasures of Tanis, and the Narmer Palette, commemorating the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under one king. The museum also displays the impressive statues of the great kings Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, who built the pyramids on the Giza plateau.

You can also marvel at the extensive collection of papyri, sarcophagi, jewellery, and other objects that complete this uniquely expansive museum.

A highlight of any visit to the Egyptian Museum is the iconic mask of the Golden Pharaoh, Tutankhamun. British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered in 1922 that King Tutankhamun had become an international icon of Egyptian civilization.

The tomb’s four small rock-cut chambers, hidden beneath the sands of the Valley of the Kings, yielded over 5,000 incredible objects bearing witness to this king’s life and death. The discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun is the most spectacular in the history of archaeology.

Giza Pyramid Complex

The Giza Pyramid Complex is the most popular tourist attraction in Egypt. This Complex is an Ancient Egyptian site located on the Giza Plateau. Widely known, it includes the Great Pyramid of Giza, its associated networks, and the Sphinx of Giza. Also, we call it the Giza Necropolis.

The ancient Egyptians built these massive constructions during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt. Additionally, the Giza Complex includes several cemeteries and the remains of a workers’ settlement on its territory.

Pyramid of Khufu

The Pyramid of Khufu stands at a towering height of 138.5 metres. Located in the Giza pyramid complex, this oldest and largest Pyramid has astounded people through the centuries. This marvel constitutes a part of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world.

Pyramid of Khafre

The Pyramid Of Khafre stands at 448ft with a base length of 706ft. These measurements make the Pyramid the second-tallest and second-largest Giza Pyramid complex. It houses the tomb of the Fourth Dynasty Pharaoh Khafre, who ruled between 2558 and 2532 BC. This historical monument is also known as the Pyramid of Chephren.

Menkaure Pyramid

Menkaure is the third Pyramid in the Giza Pyramid complex in Greater Cairo, Egypt. This beautiful structure is the smallest of the three, rising to 66 metres (218 feet). Despite being short, the Menkaure Pyramid houses some of the most stunning sculptures from Ancient Egyptian history.

Great Sphinx

The Great Sphinx is one of the most significant sculptures in the world. It stands nearly 66 feet and showcases a reclined lion’s body and a human head. A royal headdress adorns the Sphinx’s human head. This magnificent statue is around 240 feet long.

Old Cairo

In 576 BCE, Nebuchadnezzar (King of Babel) invaded ancient Egypt. He built a fortification on the eastern bank of the Nile near the capital city of Memphis.
