PYRAMIDS luxury tour

1114 $ starting from
£675/ $1114 per person
Cairo, the Egyptian capital, is one of the most vibrant and historic cities in the Middle East and an ideal destination for an exotic long weekend. What can surpass the opportunity of gazing on the face of the Sphinx, then enjoying a camel ride at the pyramids, followed by seeing the incredible golden treasures of the Pharaoh Tutankhamen? While on the Pyramids Sojourn you will also walk through the bustling labyrinthine medieval bazaars of Khan el Khalili – a riot of colour and an oriental shoppers delight – and visiting the ancient lanes, monuments of Coptic Cairo, known as Babylon in Roman times. In our opinion these experiences are virtually unmatchable. The itinerary is privately escorted throughout and has been designed to give you the right mix of sightseeing and leisure.
