Itinerary

  1. Your guide waits at arrivals with your name and helps with the visa. Your bags stay safely with us in the car.

  2. The museum opens with the 3,200-year-old colossus of Ramses II, 11 metres of granite reflected in water, then the Grand Staircase, lined with kings and gods, rising towards a view of the pyramids.

  3. For the first time since its discovery in 1922, the boy king's entire burial treasure is shown together: the golden mask, the coffins, the chariots and the jewellery.

  4. A break on the museum terrace, with the pyramids of Giza on the horizon, before the drive back.

  5. Drop-off at your terminal at least three hours before your next flight.
