This private experience is tailored for those seeking undiscovered treasures, archaeology, and superior comfort off the beaten track. Your adventure kicks off with a private transfer to Sharm Airport for a direct flight to Cairo.

These tombs are celebrated for their intricate depictions of everyday life. Continue your exploration at the enigmatic Serapeum of Saqqara. This subterranean complex houses the colossal granite sarcophagi of the sacred Apis bulls, a site that continues to captivate historians and visitors alike.
Afterwards, savour lunch at a local eatery before wrapping up your journey at the Grand Egyptian Museum, Egypt's latest cultural icon. Wander through its cutting-edge galleries, towering statues, and the complete treasures of Tutankhamun, exhibited together for the first time ever.
