Additional Programs and Tours that you can Book

While you are visiting Cairo, you will have the chance to do more activities for an extra charge.

Grand Egyptian Museum

This mega museum in Giza will showcase Tutankhamun’s burial treasures for the first time, all at the same place, including 2,000 artefacts that have never been made public before. A visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum is a highlight of your Egypt tour.

The Grand Egyptian Museum is situated on 50 hectares (120 acres) of land approximately two kilometres from the Giza pyramids and is part of a new master plan for the plateau.

The building of the museum has a unique beauty. Although it will not rival the beauty of the Giza pyramids it looks like foldings in the desert sand. The Facade of the museum is geometrical in shape with alabaster stone. The museum is designed to line up with the Great Pyramid of Khufu and Menkaure.

The museum building is shaped like a chamfered triangle and while the front of the building has a translucent stone wall, it is the atrium inside that you will marvel at when you arrive.

The museum will house about 100,000 artefacts spanning a history of 7000 years of Egyptian history. With the latest technology in its halls.

One of the artefacts that has been recently transported to the museum is the thirty-foot-high granite statue of King Ramses II. The statue is more than three thousand years old and weighs about eighty-three tons. The statue was placed in a cage that was constructed specifically for the transport, and it was surrounded by a mounted military guard and a marching band for the journey. Once it arrived at the new Grand Egyptian Museum, it was placed inside the atrium where it will greet you every time you walk through the front doors.

While you are visiting this museum, you will be able to wander through exhibition galleries and watch a 3D movie within the cinema. It may be the ancillary buildings, restaurants, and shops that pique your interest the most after you have completed your exploration of history.

Virtual reality has also been incorporated into this new museum space, so every visitor will be able to incorporate the latest in technology during their visit. There is nothing better than feeling like you are being transported back in time as you are experiencing seeing these items for the first time.

What you will see, is the Hanging Obelisk Square in front of the museum, the atrium, the Children’s Museum, the Immersive Hall, the outdoor areas, and retail and food and beverage outlets, which include leading Egyptian brands.

Entry to the atrium will afford access to a selection of remarkable artefacts, including the colossus of Rameses II, the 10 Statues of Senusret, the Sakkara Cannon, the victory column of Meneptah, in addition to the Ptolemaic King and Queen statues.

All other museum interior spaces, including access to the main galleries and the two Tutankhamun galleries, will remain closed in preparation for the full site opening.

Pyramids Camel Ride

Experience the Great Pyramid of Giza, the only remaining ancient world wonder, at its most beautiful on this sunrise camel tour. With a private guide, climb atop your camel and enjoy a leisurely ride as the sun shines above the ancient structures. Get ready to capture the best photos.

Motorboat Nile Trip

Enjoy the motorboat tour in the longest Nile in the world while enjoying the sights of Cairo from the water along with a cosy atmosphere. Enjoy refreshing breezes with a ride on the traditional Egyptian motorboat and the bewitching skyline of Cairo, while listening to some famous Egyptian songs. Soak up stellar views of Cairo’s towers, bridges and riverfront. Snap photos and make memories. It's a family-friendly cruise ideal for all ages.

    We recommend this tour

    Posted by Ashley Clair on 30th Jul 2024

    On our day trip from El Gouna to Cairo by plane (Hurghada—Cairo), we had a fantastic experience. From the start, communication via WhatsApp was highly efficient, with prompt responses to all our inquiries. The pick-up from our hotel was punctual, and the pre-arranged flight with Air Cairo, organized by Landious Travel, was smooth. Upon arrival at the Cairo airport, our guide and driver were already there to welcome us. Our first stop was the pyramids; seeing these ancient wonders stunned us. Our guide, who spoke impeccable English, shared in-depth knowledge and even doubled up as an amateur photographer, capturing memorable moments for us. We also had the chance to enjoy a camel ride at the pyramids, an experience we will never forget. The included lunch was delicious and plentiful, fueling us for the rest of the day's adventures. Next, we headed to the Egyptian Museum, where our guide showcased the museum's highlights. Although we couldn't explore the entire museum due to its size, the mesmerizing death mask of Tutankhamun stood out. We concluded our day with a visit to Khan El Khalili, where our guide led us to a charming coffee house called El Fishawy. Following this, our driver skillfully navigated us through Cairo's bustling traffic to the airport, ensuring we made it in time for our return flight. We are incredibly grateful to our guide for providing a wealth of information in flawless English and creating a seamless and unforgettable experience. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour.

We highly recommend hiring a guide for a trip to Cairo, and we were especially pleased with our guide's excellent English skills. Despite the costs for the program, including flights, entrance fees, and meals, being on the higher side, we found it to be worth every penny. I also want to mention the outstanding booking and organization provided by Landious Travel.

    I am grateful for the excellent tours

    Posted by Maggie Rogers on 20th Jul 2024

    During my first trip to Egypt, I was accompanied by my 15-year-old son. Our itinerary included visiting the Valley of the Kings and the pyramids in Cairo and snorkelling and diving activities in the Red Sea. We learned about Landious Travel from friends who highly recommended their exclusive trips. After emailing them, I was pleasantly surprised to receive prompt and friendly responses in English, which left a very positive impression on me. The booking process was smooth and hassle-free, and I felt at ease with the communication. I was particularly impressed by the flexibility in payment options. We could make the payments directly in cash, choosing between sterlings, Egyptian pounds, or a combination. This flexibility significantly reduced the risk, and everything worked out perfectly. My son and I booked two comprehensive packages—a private tour of Luxor and a private tour of Cairo by plane. Upon arrival, we were required to make a 50% advance payment for the flight, and the remainder was paid later. Moreover, the convenience extended to a dedicated driver being sent to pick us up for the tours. To top it off, Landious also offered us a private shuttle service from the airport. As a generous gesture, they waived the airport transfers as a bonus, acknowledging our booking of the comprehensive tour package. The overall experience was exceptional, and I am grateful for the excellent tours.

Moreover, I can't help but commend the efficiency and responsiveness of the tour operator. When our friends expressed a last-minute interest in joining our tour, the operator promptly accommodated their request within minutes, leaving us all pleasantly surprised. Overall, the level of service and the value we received exceeded our expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend Landious Travel to anyone considering a trip to Egypt.
