About this trip
Five days covering two very different sides of Egypt: the pyramids and ancient monuments around Cairo and Giza, then the Mediterranean, Greco-Roman feel of Alexandria.
This is a guided, easy-paced introduction rather than a deep-dive expedition, well suited to families or first-time visitors who want the essential sights without a punishing schedule.
You'll move between Pharaonic and Roman history in a short space of time, from the desert plateau at Giza to the coastal streets of Alexandria.
