Your Private Cairo and Pyramids Trip from Makadi Bay Begins

Early Morning Departure from Makadi Bay

Your private driver will pick you up early in the morning — usually around 4:00 or 5:00 AM — directly from your hotel in Makadi Bay.
Enjoy a smooth and air-conditioned ride through the Egyptian landscape, passing desert plateaus, palm groves, and small villages.

The trip to Cairo takes about 5–6 hours, depending on traffic. Unlike group tours, this private transfer gives you the freedom to travel comfortably at your own pace, with breaks for rest and refreshments.

First Stop: The Grand Egyptian Museum – A New Era of Discovery

The Treasure House of the Pharaohs

Upon arrival in Cairo, your first stop will be the Grand Egyptian Museum, a breathtaking complex located near the Pyramids of Giza. This long-awaited museum, partly overlooking the Giza Plateau, is the largest archaeological museum in the world.

Inside, you’ll discover an extraordinary collection of over 100,000 artifacts — including the complete treasures of King Tutankhamun, displayed together for the first time since their discovery. The architecture of the museum itself is a masterpiece, blending modern design with ancient inspiration.

Your private Egyptologist guide will take you through the highlights: colossal statues, royal mummies, ancient tools, jewelry, and the grand staircase filled with monumental sculptures.

The museum gives you a perfect introduction before visiting the actual monuments at Giza.

The Iconic Pyramids of Giza

A Wonder of the Ancient World

After your museum visit, continue to the Giza Plateau, home to the most famous landmarks of Egypt:

• The Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops) – the oldest and largest of the three.

• The Pyramid of Khafre (Chephren) – easily recognizable by the remains of its limestone casing.

• The Pyramid of Menkaure – smaller but elegantly proportioned.

Stand in awe before the Great Sphinx, guarding the plateau with its mysterious smile. Your guide will share fascinating stories about the pharaohs, the construction techniques, and the myths surrounding these timeless monuments.

You’ll have time to walk around, take incredible photos, or even go inside one of the pyramids if you wish (optional ticket).

Lunch with a View

Around midday, you’ll stop for a delicious Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant, often with a direct view of the pyramids. Enjoy traditional dishes such as grilled kebab, kofta, rice, salads, and fresh bread — a perfect way to relax before continuing your journey.

Optional: Nile River Felucca Ride or Papyrus Institute Visit

If time allows, you can add a short felucca boat ride on the Nile River, gliding along the world’s longest river as the city buzzes around you.
Alternatively, visit a papyrus institute to see how ancient Egyptians made the first paper and shop for handmade souvenirs.

After a full day of exploring Cairo’s treasures, you’ll begin your drive back to Makadi Bay in your private, air-conditioned vehicle. Enjoy the sunset views over the desert before arriving at your hotel in the evening — filled with memories of one of the greatest days of your life.
