The Egyptian Museum in Cairo
"The Egyptian Museum: A Treasure Trove of Ancient Artifacts" The Egyptian Museum, located in the heart of Cairo, is a true treasure trove of ancient artifacts and relics from one of the most fascinating civilizations in human history. With over 120,000 artifacts on display, visitors can explore the many wonders of ancient Egypt, including mummies, sarcophagi, jewelry, and more. The museum's vast collection includes iconic pieces like the golden mask of Tutankhamun and the Narmer Palette, which depict the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt. Walking through the galleries, visitors will feel as though they've stepped back in time to a world of pharaohs, gods, and monumental architecture.
Mosque of Amr Ibn Al-As
"Old Coptic Cairo: A Historic District of Cultural Heritage" After exploring the Egyptian Museum, the tour will take you to Old Coptic Cairo, a historic district of the city that is home to some of the oldest Christian churches in the world. Here, you'll wander through narrow alleys and winding streets, passing by ancient churches, monasteries, and synagogues. The district's unique blend of Christian, Islamic, and Jewish influences creates a fascinating tapestry of cultural heritage, and visitors can explore the many hidden corners of this historic neighborhood.

best experience of my life.
This is the best option for an instruction and genuinely private tour of the Giza Pyramids. With entrance costs, pick-up and drop-off included, as well as a surprisingly tasty lunch, it offers excellent value. Muhammad, our tour guide, made sure we were comfortable and safe. He was very kind and informed. We had a fun camel ride and saw some amazing vistas of the Memphis open-air museum, the Giza pyramids, tomb complexes, and Saqqara's step pyramid. A highlight was the lunch, which included some of the greatest grilled chicken around

Loved It!
I had the pleasure of experiencing a trip to Egypt with Travel2egypt last week I stayed for 10 days and went on various tours and a lovely cruise. I have to say I have never experienced a trip as great and so professionally organized as this one. The guide who I first met had very positive energy and spirits. He was extremely helpful and made me feel so welcome. He was just one of many lovely guides just like him I encountered on my trip. I walked away from each experience with more insight than before. Egypt was extremely safe and people there are so friendly. The views are spectacular and I was fascinated the entire time. I will definitely be repeating this trip. Lovely stay. Thank you!
