Far cheaper than booking through a hotel rep, and the quality is just as good. We booked a private tour for four. Julia was always in touch and kept everything under control. Highly recommend!

James Whitfield

We received a great-value, high-quality service. I recommend Sharm Tours to everyone. Cairo absolutely belongs on your must-see list!

What you get

Tour Programme

Hotel pick-up — the drive to Cairo

We collect you from your hotel at the agreed time. The tour coach departs Sharm overnight (the exact time depends on your hotel's location).

The Grand Egyptian Museum

The museum was created to gather tens of thousands of ancient Egyptian artefacts under one roof, including the complete collection of Tutankhamun's treasures, displayed in full for the very first time. Its modern architecture, interactive technology and unique restoration laboratory make it one of the most advanced museums in the world. Over 100,000 exhibits, the granite colossus of Ramses II and direct views of the Giza Pyramids.

The Giza Pyramids & the Sphinx

The world-famous Egyptian Pyramids and the Sphinx are among the great wonders of the world and a symbol of ancient civilisation. During the tour you'll hear fascinating facts about life in Ancient Egypt. Entry inside the Pyramids is not included in the price, but can be bought at the box office on site.

A hearty lunch at a restaurant

You'll be served Egyptian cuisine, buffet style.

A cruise on the Nile

A wonderful cruise along one of the largest waterways on the planet — the source of life in an otherwise arid desert. The cruise is paid for separately (around £10). Travellers who prefer not to take the boat can wait in or beside the coach.
