Howard Carter's discovery from Luxor's tomb in 1922 made the young pharaoh well known. The most famous and precious is collection of Tutankhamun's treasure. Is great collection of around 120 000 artifacts from all the historical times of the country. Solar boat was buried next to his Pyramids and was discovered in 1954 (undisturbed since it was sealed into a pit carved out of the Giza bedrock).Īfter lunch (included without drinks) we go to the museum.
The boat was built to help Khufu to sail to afterlife, once he needs to cross the River of Dead. Solar boat of Khufu is standing right next to the monuments and you can see it by entering special "museum" place. Egypt has dozens of Pyramids discovered, however you will find the most famous ones: Khufu (the only standing Ancient World Wonder from Seven Ancient World Wonders), Khefre, Mykerinos. You can get inside the pyramid for an extra fee (10 euros). On the Giza Plateu you can definitely come close to the Pyramids and the Sphinx. Here you can start the program with Giza Plateu or with the Egyptian Museum. With a short break you will reach Cairo at around 8 a.m. The trip to Cairo from Hurghada takes 5 hours (from Makadi, you have to expect an hour more). when you are picked up from the hotel (It is useful to pre-order breakfast boxes at reception and pick it up before departure). The excursion starts early morning at around 2 a.m. You just have to experience Cairo and to see the famous Pyramids of Giza, the Egyptian Museum and the treasures of the young king Tutankhamun!
