About this trip
Three days in Cairo with an Egyptologist guide leading you through the essentials, from the Giza plateau to the city's museums and old quarters.
You start at the Pyramids and Sphinx, then move through the Valley Temple before heading into downtown Cairo, taking in the Egyptian Museum and the churches and alleys of Coptic Cairo.
Transfers and entrance fees are handled for you, so the days are about seeing things properly rather than sorting logistics.
