Tour Overview
Pyramids in the morning, Saladin’s fortress and the alabaster mosque after lunch. This itinerary is "Ancient Egypt and the Citadel". Named stops: Giza pyramids and Sphinx, Citadel, Mosque of Muhammad Ali.
Pharaonic desert and Islamic high ground in one private day, without adding a museum that would flatten both.
On the Giza plateau the walking line is Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure — three kings, not one photo stop from the parking lot.
"Ancient Egypt and the Citadel" is written for Approx. 8 Hrs. Pickup is from the hotel you name; the first stop is the first site on this page, not a coach timetable.
Private means your party only. Empty seats are not filled with strangers, and shops not named on this page are not added at the gate.
