Pyramids, Museum Treasures, and Khan El-Khalili
- A day to remember and a day full of excitement - be prepared for joy as you start by visiting one of the world's wonders: the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx.
- Continue to the Egyptian Museum, built in 1901 by Khedive Abbas Helmi II and located in downtown Cairo. It houses the world's largest collection of Pharaonic antiquities, with 120,000 items. The museum has two floors: on the first floor, the artefacts are organized in chronological order, while the second floor displays the huge, marvellous collection of King Tutankhamen, including his jewellery, coffin, and famous mask.
- Then head to Khan El-Khalili Bazaar with your Egyptologist guide. It is a great experience, as you walk through narrow alleys lined with shops selling copperware, leather, spices, and many other local crafts.
- Visit a local café, where you can enjoy famous Turkish coffee, mint tea, and pomegranate juice. In one of these cafés, the Egyptian novelist Naguib Mahfouz wrote his famous trilogy and later won the Nobel Prize in Literature.
