Egypt Day Tours & Excursions
If you’re on vacation in Egypt, you may want to go beyond just lounging on the beach, relaxing and letting the sun shine on your belly. Maybe someone will get bored and then they will look for alternatives.
Anyone with an interest in Egypt and its great past will be drawn to the excavations, museums and Bedouins.
Here are some tips on what to do on day trips in Egypt and combine beach vacations with sightseeing.
First of all, these are the famous pyramids and the Sphinx in the capital Cairo. You can visit Cairo in one day by bus or private limousine, as well as by plane. If you like, you can spend the night in Cairo and see more than just the pyramids, the museum and the Sphinx. They have been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979 and are masterpieces of the ancient Egyptians. Also worth a visit is the Tal Temple near the Sphinx.
The famous Khan El-Khalili bazaar is no less unique. Let yourself be immersed in Eastern Arabic flavors, smells, and the serenity of the merchants. And do it yourself.
Not to be missed is a short visit to Memphis and its history, as well as a visit to the Citadel of Saladin and the Alabaster Mosque, actually the Mohammed Ali Mosque. An evening stroll down El Moez Street with old Islamic buildings is an adventure in itself on day trips in Egypt.
The museum, which houses about 50,000 artifacts, and the recently built museum near the pyramids, where, among other things, the mummies of ancient kings and queens were recently brought, are also interesting for those interested in Egypt. And these are not all the places that can be visited in Cairo.
But let’s continue our list of day trips in Egypt.
