Cairo & Giza,
photographed in two days
Sunrise at the Pyramids, the Grand Egyptian Museum, Coptic Cairo and Khan el-Khalili — with a private photographer and Egyptologist guiding every frame.
Two days, four worlds, one private photographer
Cairo is not one city. It is four: the ancient Pyramids of Giza, the pharaonic treasures of the Grand Egyptian Museum, the mosques and churches of Islamic and Coptic Cairo, and the medieval alleys of Khan el-Khalili.
This two-day private tour is designed for travellers who want both the iconic shots and the street-level story of Cairo — with a private photographer and Egyptologist guide at every stop.
Why choose this tour
- Sunrise at the Pyramids: private pre-opening access to the Giza Plateau — the golden shot with almost no crowds.
- Grand Egyptian Museum: the world's largest archaeological museum, with editorial portraits of the Tutankhamun collection.
- Coptic & Islamic Cairo: the Hanging Church, Ben Ezra Synagogue, and the medieval Al-Muizz street — perfect for cultural street photography.
- Khan el-Khalili bazaar: lantern-lit alleys, spice markets and artisan workshops for environmental portraits.
- Felucca on the Nile: sunset sail on a traditional felucca with cinematic portraits on the water.
- Daily delivery: 150–300 edited photos from each day, delivered in 48-hour cycles.
