Day 02 Giza Pyramids, Memphis, Saqqara

Begin your full Cairo day trip to the Pyramids of Giza, Memphis, and Saqqara with a plentiful buffet breakfast at the hotel; then, meet your Egyptologist Guide. Transfer to the Giza Pyramids—burial grounds of the Pharaohs of the Fourth Dynasty. Your guide will give an explanation of Egypt's history, while you marvel at the Great Pyramid, the most massive one, built around 2500 B. C.

You then continue to visit the Queens' pyramids close to the Great Pyramid, with your next stop en route to the Giza Plateau giving you a view of the Kings Cheops, Chephren, and Mycerinus; facilitate yourself to see the camels for the camel rides, plus some excellent views from above. For an additional fee, you can wander on one of the camels for a photograph alongside the Giza Pyramids against the backdrop of the desert; this will be a marvelous photo opportunity at one of the most anciently sacred locations in the whole of Egypt.

See the rest of the Nile Valley. Priests are said to have done the embalming in the Valley Temple. Not to be missed at all is the Great Sphinx, dated to King Chephren.

By way of the drive that lasts an hour through Memphis, the open-air museum exhibits ancient artifacts from the first capital of Egypt, including an alabaster sphinx, many statuettes, and the colossal statue of Ramses II.

Lunch on a nearby farm visit is optional. You may then move on to explore the Saqqara, where lies the Step Pyramid of King Djoser, the first stone structure ever designed by the legendary architect Imhotep. Much larger is the Pyramid of Teti and the tomb of a noble, married into the king's daughter, showing lively scenes of some hunting and offerings to a large portrait of assorted animals or birds.

This journey is the ideal pick if you are considering which of the Egypt Christmas tours to go for, during which you can savor history and culture; let the enjoyment of the happy mood be an additional flavor. Celebration of Cairo at Christmas gives a charming look to the place, as the city sparkles with lights and Christmas decorations.

Transfer to your hotel as intended.

Meals: Breakfast & lunch.

Day 03 Traveling from Cairo to Alexandria

Next morning, after a leisurely breakfast in Alexandria, founded by Alexander the Great in 332 B. C., have your approved tour guide take you on an exploration of the historic city, which for centuries has been celebrated as one of the most lovely in the world.
Your day will start with visits to the Roman ruins, of which Pompey's Pillar is an important one. Continue with your visits to the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, originally built as tombs for Egyptian nobles and subsequently used as public burial places; they provide a fascinating contrast between Pharaonic and Roman artistic styles.
After leaving the Catacombs, a visit to the Citadel of Qaitbay, occupying the site where the ancient Lighthouse of Pharos once stood, should be in order. Although the lighthouse, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, no longer exists, the citadel stands as a reminder of its historical importance.
After a mouthwatering seafood feast at an elegant restaurant on Alexandria’s waterfront, head to the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, an architectural masterpiece and a modern design masterpiece.
Celebrating Christmas in Alexandria Egypt, has an added touch of charm to the experience, and therefore Egypt over Christmas combines a festive spirit with an endlessly interesting exploration of history.

In the end, check in and sleep at the hotel.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch.

Day 04 Alexandria to El-Alamein WWII Cemetery, Marsa Matrouh

After breakfast, start with your El Alamein tour, which was a site of important battles during the Second World War between the Axis and the Allied forces. Explore the Military Museum to get the nitty-gritty of WWII, and visit the Alamein Commonwealth Cemetery as a poignant remembrance of the war. After this, travel to the beautiful coastal city of Marsa Matrouh. Have a delicious lunch of Egyptian cuisine; enjoy the fine beaches for a while; make a check-in into accommodation and have a peaceful night.

Day 06 Marsa Matrouh to Cairo, Cairo City Tour

After breakfast, guests will be transferred to Cairo in a private air-conditioned van.

Upon your arrival, carry on your Cairo city tour by visiting the Egyptian Museum—here, behold over 120,000 antiquities somewhere amidst displaying the rich history of Egypt. Witness the famous golden-piece treasure of King Tutankhamun.

Go next, on Old Cairo with the Coptic Cairo day tour. Walk the ancient Roman fortress built in the 1st century by the name of Babylon, atop which sits the Hanging Church of the Holy Virgin Mary, overseen by two towers. Known yet another was the cave church for Abu Serga and the old Ben Ezra Synagogue, the latter perhaps representing the time added to color for Cairo at Christmas as a whole.

Lunch will be served. After a tasty meal, be transferred back to the hotel. Check in and stay in your room to participate in the festive spirit. It's Christmas and Cairo, in essence, is to be celebrated in Cairo- a different experience.

We took a ride in the village of Slavia, but I couldn't find an option to review this activity
Because it is temporary so I found this company on the Internet, customer service staff is good, but the only US is not enough is that he can only brush cards online can not pay cash, hope to have the option of paying cash

We had a great afternoon
Leading our guide Ahmed people are good, we because of the previous trip delayed time, let him wait for us a while on the boat, up to the boat to discover the entire boat only us, he also gave us water and drinks, we saw the sunset on the boat to take pictures very carefully, the road Ahmed like we told the surrounding view, some understand some not understand, but this is the charm of travel
Finally arrived at the place where Ahmed was very good to support us in the upper edge, the youth who carried the rope was also reassured to give us, but there was no stubborn edge in the back of the supervision, on the road we would run for a while and walk very self-sufficient, in his body we were afraid and excited, and finally walked into the village of slavery, we went to eat slavery bread with black sugar and adult food, that servant and our soy milk taste super like soy milk, also drank black tea, because Arab coffee is interested so we also tried, the taste is very special. Finally we went to the school in Slavia for a class, really a classroom, we quickly learned some Arabic and Slavic, really too hard, but very happy, if not to rush back and gather, really want to slow down the whole village
