Tour Itinerary

1 Day 1: Arrival – Cairo Tour

Your unforgettable journey through the 3 Days Cairo Tour Itinerary begins the moment you arrive at Cairo International Airport. Our representative will warmly welcome you and escort you to your hotel in Cairo or Giza in a comfortable private A/C vehicle. After a short rest, your first day of discovery kicks off with a visit to the following:

The Egyptian Museum

Imagine walking into a place where every corner holds a secret from 5,000 years ago. That’s what it feels like when you enter the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. This isn't just a museum, it's a journey through time. You'll stand face to face with real royal mummies, see the glittering treasures of King Tutankhamun, and get lost in stories carved in stone and painted on ancient papyrus.

Whether you’re a history lover or just curious, you’ll feel a deep connection to a civilization that shaped the world. It's the perfect start to your 3 Day Cairo and Luxor by round trip flight adventure. Pair your city visit with a museum stop, our Grand Egyptian Museum Tour brings history even closer.

The Great Pyramids of Giza

There’s nothing quite like seeing the Pyramids of Giza with your own eyes. No photo can capture the feeling of standing beside these massive wonders. Built more than 4,500 years ago, they still leave visitors speechless.

You’ll explore the Pyramid of Khufu, the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World and learn how these giant tombs were built without modern tools.

The atmosphere here is surreal. You’ll take in sweeping views, hear ancient stories, and maybe, for a moment, forget what century you’re in. It’s a true highlight of the Cairo to Luxor journey.

The Great Sphinx

Meet the guardian of the pyramids, the Great Sphinx. It’s older than history books can fully explain and more mysterious than any legend. With a lion’s body and a human face, the Sphinx has been watching over Giza for thousands of years. No one knows exactly why it was built or what secrets it holds, and that’s what makes it so powerful.

Standing in front of it, you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of an ancient riddle that still hasn’t been solved. It’s a moment you’ll carry with you long after the trip ends.

The Valley Temple

Quiet, powerful, and often overlooked, the Valley Temple is where ancient Egyptians began their journey to the afterlife. Built from enormous stone blocks, this temple was part of the sacred process of preparing pharaohs for eternity. Inside, you'll walk through chambers where real ceremonies took place over 4,000 years ago.

You can almost hear the whispers of priests, smell the incense, and feel the presence of something ancient. It’s not just a stop on the tour, it’s a rare chance to step into a sacred space that most people never even hear about.

After a full day of exploration, you’ll return to your hotel in Cairo to relax and unwind, preparing for your next day, where the adventure continues from Cairo to Luxor, the city of temples and tombs.

Optional Evening Experiences

Enjoy a 2-hour Nile dinner cruise with traditional music and folkloric dance.
Or experience the mesmerizing Sound and Light show at the Pyramids under the stars. Not sure which tour fits you best? Explore our full range of Egypt Tour Packages for inspiration!

2 Day 2: Discovering Luxor

The second day of your 3 days in Cairo and Luxor itinerary begins with an early domestic flight from Cairo to Luxor, a city where every stone has a story to tell. As soon as you land, your expert guide will greet you and take you on an unforgettable journey through Upper Egypt’s most iconic landmarks.

Karnak Temple

Step into a sacred world that was once reserved only for pharaohs and gods. The Karnak Temple isn’t just a temple, it’s a massive complex of towering columns, endless statues, and carved walls that echo the glory of ancient Egypt.

You’ll walk through the Avenue of Sphinxes, stand beneath the colossal Hypostyle Hall, and feel the spiritual energy that still lingers in the air. Every part of Karnak tells a story, and with each step, you’re walking deeper into the heart of Egyptian mythology.

Luxor Temple

Located right in the center of modern Luxor, this temple is a breathtaking fusion of history and beauty. Unlike Karnak, Luxor Temple was dedicated to the rejuvenation of kingship, and it comes alive at sunset when the golden light dances on its ancient stones.

You’ll see massive statues of Ramses II standing tall, as well as intricate carvings that show rituals, battles, and the gods themselves. It's one of the few places where you can truly feel how ancient and modern Egypt coexist side by side.

Valley of the Kings

Across the Nile lies a place of silence and mystery, the Valley of the Kings. Here, beneath the rugged hills, Egypt’s greatest pharaohs found their final resting place. You'll descend into tombs decorated with vivid hieroglyphs that have survived for over three millennia.

These underground chambers are more than burial sites, they’re portals into ancient beliefs about life, death, and eternity. It’s humbling and awe-inspiring, all at once.

Hatshepsut Temple

Carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, Queen Hatshepsut’s temple stands as a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, unmatched by any other monument in Egypt. This elegant structure was crafted for one of the most powerful women in history, a pharaoh who ruled with wisdom and strength.

As you stand in front of its terraces and colonnades, you’ll hear stories of a queen who defied expectations and left behind a legacy carved in stone. It’s a powerful tribute to female leadership in a male-dominated world.

Colossi of Memnon

Before wrapping up your day, you’ll stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues that have stood guard over Luxor for nearly 3,400 years. Though weathered by time, these seated giants still radiate majesty.

In ancient times, people believed one of them sang at dawn, a sound caused by the stone warming in the morning sun. Today, they stand as silent storytellers of a long-lost age.

At the end of your day, you’ll fly back to Cairo, where your driver will return you to your hotel for a peaceful overnight rest, ready for the final chapter of this unforgettable adventure.
