Each of the four sides of the pyramid has a length of 231 meters, and each brick weighs an estimated 2.5 tons, making it to a cumulative weight of about six million tons. These pyramids are found in the Giza desert, which is a place situated on the western side of the Nile.

Memphis: Established by King Mina, Memphis was the Old Kingdom’s seat of power in Egypt for a period of over 3000 years, acting as an administrative and educational hub. Here, you will behold the stunning Ramses II statue as well as the alabaster Sphinx.

Saqqara: The Step Pyramid of Djoser is one of the recognizable structures in Egypt, and this also marks a development in ancient Egyptian funerary architecture. It signifies a great achievement in erecting buildings of stone and in the royal’s burial. It is the first pyramidal structure to be constructed by the people of Egypt and also the rank of the oldest stone structure.

You will eventually return to your hotel for the overnight stay.

Meals served during the day are: breakfast, lunch.

On day three of your 13-Day Cairo, Nile Cruise, Fayoum, and Bahariya Oasis Package, after having breakfast, you may proceed for your visits.

Egyptian Museum: The museum includes the husband's and wife's funerary treasures of Yuya and Thuya, the magnificent collection of treasure belonging to Psusennes I, who ruled from Tanis, and the Narmer Stele, which is dedicated to the first king to unify both Upper and Lower Egypt. Among its invaluable displays are magnificent busts of the ancient pharaohs, Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, who are credited with constructing the Giza Plateau Pyramids. The museum is also well enriched by extraordinary ethnographic collections of papyrus and coffins, along with jewelry.

Saladin Citadel: The citadel contains three museums, one of which is the Jewel Palace Museum, which contains a chandelier that weighs one thousand kilograms, presented to Muhammad Ali Pasha by King Louis Philippe I of France. Also on display is Muhammad Ali's throne, offered to him by the Italian King. Commenced in 1983, the Transport Museum displays various royal vehicles, including a remarkable collection of vintage cars used during the reign of Khedive Ismail.

Khan El Khalili Bazaar: This area, a market in its own right, is a famous place bearing the name of Jerkes al-Khalili, one of the Mamluke princes who came from Hebron in the holy land.

After your visits, transfer back to your hotel for an overnight stay. Day meals: breakfast, lunch.

Arise early and savor a hearty breakfast before proceeding to the airport for your flight to Luxor. Upon completing the boarding procedures on your Nile cruise, proceed to:

Karnak Temple: The second structure of this temple is considered to have been built first by king Horemheb and then by king Ramsis I before it was known after Ramsis II. More construction was added during the reigns of Euergetes ii and Ptolemy VI. The temple is 97 meters long, 29 meters high, and 14 meters thick.

Luxor Temple: The temple's front has four big stature kings, each of them standing 20 meters tall, and a door with waiting rooms whose length is 180 feet. The entrance of the temple has six statues, four of which are Ramses, and the other two are his wife Nefertari.

After your visits, transfer back to your Nile cruise.

Day meals: all-inclusive.

On the fifth morning of your 13-Day Cairo, Nile cruise, Fayoum, and Oasis Budget Package tour, explore:

Valley of the Kings: The Valley of the Kings, which is famous for the numerous royal interments done within it, is situated within a dry river valley on the western side of the ancient capital city of Thebes (modern-day Luxor). However, this designation is a bit simplistic in that the valley also contains interments for females of the royal bloodline and other dignitaries. The valley is further subdivided into two parts: east and west.

Hatshepsut Temple: Queen Hatshepsut erected this structure for the purpose of conducting ceremonies that would enhance her afterlife. ‘Deir al-Bahari’ is the name derived in the seventh century AD to refer to the location after the Copts occupied the place as a monastery. The temple has three terraces rising in levels connected with one another by ramps.

Colossi of Memnon: These two gigantic statues, known as the Kolesat or Salamat in the local dialect, were erected in approximately 1350 B.C.

After finishing the tour, come back to the Nile cruise.

Day meals: all-inclusive.

On the sixth day of your journey, navigation will take you to Edfu. Following the breakfast hour, proceed to

Temple of Edfu: This is one of the ancient Egyptian temples on the western bank of the Nile. It is dedicated to the falcon-headed god Horus and is considered to be the best preserved of all. It took about 180 years of construction, starting with King Ptolemy III's reign in the year 237 BC.

Kom Ombo Temple: Kom Ombo refers to a people in ancient times by the name Emboa, hence lending the city that name. The name has two components, where ‘Kom’ describes height, meaning what is above the ground, while ‘Ombo’ describes the king or ruler of a particular valley.

After your visits, transfer back to your Nile cruise.

Day meals: all-inclusive.

On the seventh day, which is part of your Cairo, Nile Cruise, Fayoum, and Oasis Budget Package of 13, wake up early, have some breakfast, and prepare to:

Every Sanguine Dream Must Have Its Central Challenge: The hydroelectric dam project, which was mainly popularized by attempting to tackle the issue of building a high dam along the upper reaches of the river, was a means of fish farming by creating a natural fish pond. Work commenced in the year nineteen fifty-three with the project’s design contracted to one of the best construction companies in the world.

Unfinished Obelisk: The obelisk that is 42 meters long is situated in the northern part of the quarry in Aswan. It’s dated back to the year 1921.

Philae Temple: This temple that was built in honor of the goddess Isis sank under the Nile and has been taken apart and put back together on Agilika island, close to 500 meters away from its primary establishment, Philae Temple.

In these excursions, after your visits, proceed back to your Nile cruise.

Day meals: all inclusive.

Savor a hearty breakfast to kick off the 8th day of your tour package before proceeding to begin your day tour to Abu Simbel.

Abu Simbel:

 This enormous temple was built during the reign of Ramses II, the most famous King of Egypt in that period of the Modern State (about 1303 BC–1213 BC). He became a king in his late teenage years and sat on the throne of Egypt for 67 years, from 1279 BC to 1213 BC.

Once you’re done with looking around, retrace your steps back to the Nile cruise you have previously been on and return, this time with prepared luggage. After which, take one last flight straight back to Cairo for an overnight check-in at your hotel.

Meals: breakfast.

Enjoy a free day in Cairo for a walking tour with the locals, allowing you to relax and soak in the city's atmosphere. Alternatively, your tour leader will offer optional tours for you to consider.

Day meals: Breakfast.

Before heading to Fayoum, it is essential that you have an early meal.

Wadi El Hitan: In the absence of a more elaborate description, Wadi el Hitan, about 150 km from Cairo, is located in the Wadi El Rayan Nature Reserve sprawled over an area of 400 km². In 1989, the Wadi El Rayan area, including Wadi EL Hitan defined by its astonishing fossils, was declared a national park due to its necessity for sauvegarde.

Have your afternoon meal in Tunis Village before settling down for the night.

Daily meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner.

Savor a tasty morning meal prior to the transfer to the first day’s objective.

Lake Qaroun: As one of the oldest natural lakes in the world and a remnant of the ancient lake Morris, Lake Qaroun is approximately 1385 square kilometers in area and was created a natural reserve in 1989. It boasts of rich marine river and land fossils about 40 million years ago, including the impressive Fayoum animal with a body structure similar to a rhino that was found in that area.

Wadi El Rayan: Wadi El Rayan is the most important reserve in Egypt after Ras Muhammad, Saint Catherine, and Mount Elba. This recalls the name of a king, al Rayyan Ibn al Walid, who was based in the area together with his encampment, where they fetched water from the natural springs. This name traces back to ancient Egyptian times, and this is further complemented by evidence brought forth by the ancient writings in a papyrus.

After you have completed your visits, return to Cairo for an overnight stay.

Day meals: breakfast, lunch.

Begin your day with some breakfast, as you will be en route to Bahariya Oasis for a tour.

The White Desert earned its fame due to the scenic sand dunes, the striking white limestone cropping, and interesting paleontological specimens. The area exhibits chalky terrain with wind-sculpted snow-white chalk structures and sharp cliffs within, forming a highly scenic geological and topographical feature.

The Black Desert: The Black Desert is named for its geographical features; it comprises mountains and plateaus covered with black powder, which are volcanic ashes from several million years ago.

After this tour, you will be safely returned to Cairo, so you can spend the night at the hotel.

Day meals: breakfast, lunch.

Enjoy your breakfast before transferring to Cairo International Airport to catch your flight, marking the end of our services.
