Why choose this private 2-day Cairo tour from Soma Bay?
Comfort and expertise
A private Egyptologist guide explains the meaning behind what you see — from pyramid construction theories to the daily life artifacts inside the Egyptian Museum. Traveling privately in an air-conditioned vehicle means you control the pace: linger longer where you love, skip what you don’t.
Two days let you breathe
Cairo is vast. A single day trip can feel rushed; overnighting in the city turns the experience into a short voyage — sunrise light on the Sphinx, an unhurried museum visit, and a peaceful hotel stay between two very full days of discovery.
The itinerary — what you’ll do
Day 1 — Egyptian Museum, Giza Pyramids & Sphinx, hotel stay
Rise early for a comfortable transfer to Cairo with a planned rest stop. On arrival your private Egyptologist leads you through the Egyptian Museum — a treasure trove spanning millennia, including the Tutankhamun collection and thousands of artifacts that map the arc of ancient Egyptian life and belief. After a local lunch, head to the Giza Plateau to stand under the silhouette of the Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), the nearby pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, and the majestic Great Sphinx. At day’s end, check into your Cairo hotel for dinner and a restful night. Optional evening: the atmospheric Sound & Light show at Giza.
Day 2 — Saladin Citadel, Coptic Cairo & Khan el-Khalili, return to Soma Bay
After breakfast, explore the Citadel of Salah El-Din and the alabaster Mosque of Muhammad Ali, then cross to Coptic Cairo to visit the Hanging Church, Saints Sergius and Bacchus, and the Ben Ezra Synagogue. Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before wandering the fragrant lanes of Khan el-Khalili Bazaar — a perfect spot for souvenirs and mint tea. In the late afternoon, your private transfer will take you back to Soma Bay.
Practical tips & packing list
-
Passport: always bring it (required at some checkpoints).
-
Comfort: dress in lightweight, modest clothing; wear comfortable walking shoes.
-
Sun protection: bring a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen — Cairo sun is strong.
-
Cash: bring Egyptian pounds for small purchases and bazaar bargaining. Card acceptance is common but not universal in markets.
-
Photography: photography is permitted in most sites but sometimes requires a small extra fee (ask your guide). Interior access to some pyramids or tombs may have additional charges.
-
Long drive comfort: take seasickness or motion-comfort remedies if you’re sensitive; schedule rest breaks en route.
