Breakfast. Departure from hotel towards some of Egypt's earliest and greatest monuments.

Here we see the Serapeum, an underground complex designed as the resting place for sacred bulls of Apis, and may be able to enter the tombs of the nobles, noted for the unmatched quality of the bas-reliefs sculpted into their walls. After Memphis, we continue our tour to Sakkara, the city of the dead to see the 14 surviving pyramids include the amazing Step Pyramid of Pharaoh Zoser the world's oldest stone building, built in 2686 BC - a ziggurat-like structure.

Breakfast. Departure from hotel to begin our tour with the Egyptian Museum. The greatest collection of Egyptian antiquities is, without doubt, that of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. It is a place of true discovery and, even after many visits, you will continue to make new and delightful discoveries every time you venture into its many galleries.
After your tour in the Egyptian museum you can have an optional tour to Cairo Citadel which a very intersting place to visit and contain many monuments such as The Mohammed Ali (alabaster) Mosque. The mosque was built in the Ottoman style by Mohammed Ali Pasha, ruler of Egypt, and founder of the country''s last dynasty of Khedives and Kings. The mosque is the Tomb of Mohammed Ali and is also known as the alabaster Mosque because of the extensive use of this fine material from Beni Suef.
After the Citadel you can have an optional visit The Khan El-Khalili Bazaars Where you can test your bargain ability. Khan El Khalili Market was built in 1382 by the Emir Djaharks El-Khalili in the heart of the Fatimid City. Together with the al-Muski market to the west, they comprise one of Cairo''s most important shopping areas. But more than that, they represent the market tradition which established Cairo as a major center of trade, and at the Khan, one will still find foreign merchants. Egyptian buyers generally shop in the area north of al-Badistan and to the west, where prices may be lower. Better deals for gold and silver are to be found west of the Khan along the "street of the goldsellers", and further on one will find the Brass and Coppersmith Markets. You can enjoy bargaing with the sellers and collect some intersting souvenirs. Overnight at hotel. |
