16 hours

Easy

Fly to Cairo for the day. Giza, the Great Sphinx and the Grand Egyptian Museum, back on the Red Sea by evening - without the ten-hour coach.

The coach to Cairo costs less and takes twenty hours. The plane costs more and gives you the day back.

You are collected before dawn for the short domestic flight, and at the Giza plateau while it is still cool. The itinerary covers the pyramids, the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple, then the Grand Egyptian Museum and its Tutankhamun galleries.

Lunch and an Egyptologist guide run throughout, and you are back at your Red Sea hotel the same evening.
