Enjoy a decent breakfast meal at your hotel, and get ready to meet our expert driver and professional tour guide to begin our Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria Budget Tour.

The Giza Pyramids:

Stand in awe in front of one of the most impressive miracles that man ever created and visit the Pyramids of Kings from the Ancient Egyptian Kingdom, such as King Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. Do not miss the chance to visit the inside of the Khufu Pyramid.

The Sphinx:

The marvelous creature made by King Khafre to protect the plateau became a monumental legend in the later dynasties. Check out this human head and the body of a lion and capture the most famous and creative picture.

The Valley Temple:

Do not forget to visit the Temple that holds some of the mummification methods inside it, the Temple of mixed stones and materials, which was made as a part of the King Khafre complex. After our visit to the pyramids is over, we will take a short lunch break in one of the local restaurants and then move on with our schedule.

The Grand Egyptian Museum:

Have a wonderful time at one of the most amazing, inspiring, and modern museums. The GEM is considered an Egyptian landmark. Visit King Tutankhamun and be welcomed by King Ramses II, and walk through the different stages of Egyptian Civilization.

Day 3: Luxor full day – Back to Cairo

Our only day in Luxor will be full and busy. Our top-tier tour guide will guide you all over Luxor and tell you stories of ancient Egyptians. However, first, enjoy a mouth-watering breakfast at your hotel. Our Budget Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria 5-day days tour will not be the same without Egyptian tales and Luxor vibes.

Karnak Temple:

Karnak Temple, located in Luxor, is the largest temple complex in Egypt and a major center of Egyptian religious architecture. It has witnessed the rise and fall of various civilizations and religions, yet it retains its authenticity and unique splendor. If you truly want to experience this remarkable temple, do not forget to walk through its hypostyle hall, which is a great spot for taking photos.

After that, we will enjoy a traditional Egyptian meal with a stunning Nile view and continue our day.

Hatshepsut Temple:

The Temple of Queen Hatshepsut is one of the most beautiful and largest temples. When you climb the stairs, you will feel as if you are going up to meet the queen herself, and you will enjoy learning about the story of her divine birth from Amun. Like all funerary temples, the temple is located in the west.

Climb the stairs slowly to get the best vantage point in front of the hills for one of the best photos of your 5 days Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria budget tour.

Valley of the Kings:

The Valley of the Kings lives up to its name, for you will see the special touches of Egyptian artists who gave each king's tomb its own unique atmosphere, distinguishing it from the other tombs. This valley was an innovative idea designed to keep tombs safe from thieves.

Enjoy the tranquility of the valley and discover the secrets of ancient Egypt.

Colossi of Memnon:

The Colossi of Memnon are two of the largest statues of kings, dating back to King Amenhotep III, located west of Luxor, Egypt. They were named after the Greeks.

Don't forget to ask about the story of the wailing that the townspeople heard from the two statues at dawn, and the truth behind this tale.

After completing our day in Luxor, we will take you to Luxor Airport to board your flight back to Cairo. Upon your return, we will escort you back to your hotel in Cairo in our private car, leaving you to rest for the night and prepare to continue our 5-Day Budget Egypt Tour.

Meals: Breakfast and Lunch

Day 4: Alexandria sightseeing day

Once you are done with your breakfast at your hotel, we will meet you and take off for a day in Alexandria, wandering between the Greco-Roman monuments and Egyptian styles with the hint of the amazing atmosphere that Alexandria offers to all its visitors.

Qaitbay Citadel:

Wander through the halls of Qaitbay Citadel and enjoy the view of the Mediterranean Sea waves in the background of the medieval citadel, which served as a center for the defense of beloved Alexandria, and admire the magnificent architectural style of the Citadel.

Do not forget to take photos of the castle and the Mediterranean waves to commemorate this visit.

Catacombs of Kom El-Shoqafa:

Prepare to experience one of the most important landmarks of Roman civilization on Egyptian soil, represented by one of the largest Roman burial sites in Egypt and the Roman world. The Kom El Shoqafa catacombs are distinguished by Egyptian and Roman styles.

Pompey’s Pillar:

Pompey’s pillar is one of the Hidden Gems in Alexandria, although it dates back to the era of the Roman emperors and was built of red granite and surrounded by two small sphinxes as an aesthetic and majestic sight. Wide-angle photographs should be taken to obtain a full view of the column.

We'll now head to a seafood lunch overlooking the stunning Mediterranean coast to unwind and take a short break before continuing our fourth day of 5 days tour from Cairo and Alexandria to Luxor cheap tour package.

Bibliotheca Alexandrina:

It is one of the best libraries in the world, housing within its walls thousands of scientific encyclopedias, research papers, and books that are a source of inspiration for many science and history enthusiasts, and is one of the achievements of the modern millennium.

After our day in one of the most beautiful Mediterranean cities, we will return to our hotel in Cairo and enjoy one last night in the vibrant atmosphere of Cairo.

Meals: Breakfast and Lunch
