Tips and gratuitiesA curated journey through Egypt's most iconic ancient wonders — pace, stops, meals and insider tips designed by our local experts.
Day 12 stops2–3 hours, depending on arrival time and trafficArrive at Cairo International Airport, where an Ozes representative meets you after formalities and assists with your transfer into the city. After hotel check-in, the rest of the afternoon is left free so you can settle in, rest after the flight, or take a short independent walk near the hotel if timing allows.
45–60 minutesMeet your tour leader and fellow travellers for a relaxed briefing. The session covers the route, meeting times, local etiquette, tipping guidance, safety tips, and what to expect during the pyramid and museum visits. It is also a useful moment to ask about optional evening activities.
Day 24 stops
2–3 hoursAfter breakfast, travel to Giza for a guided exploration of the plateau. Your guide explains the scale and purpose of the ancient royal necropolis while you view the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure from the outside. Expect bright desert light, uneven ground, and wide-open views across the limestone plateau.
30–45 minutesContinue to the Great Sphinx, where the human-headed lion sits close to Khafre’s valley temple area. The stop focuses on photo time and clear historical context, including how the Sphinx fits into the wider pyramid landscape.
30–45 minutesDrive to a panoramic point on the desert side of the plateau for broad views of the three main pyramids together. This is the best stop of the day for wide-angle photos and for understanding how the monuments sit in relation to each other and to modern Cairo beyond the plateau.
Afternoon and evening at leisureLunch is optional at a local restaurant, with your tour leader available to suggest practical choices. Return to the hotel afterward for free time. You may keep the evening quiet or ask about optional add-ons such as a Pyramids Sound and Light Show, a Nile dinner cruise, or a simple local dinner outing.
Day 34 stops
2–3 hoursBegin with a guided visit to the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. Rather than trying to rush every room, the guide highlights major periods, royal objects, statues, coffins, and everyday artifacts that help connect the museum’s displays to the sites you visited at Giza.
1.5–2 hoursContinue to Old Cairo for a heritage walk through an area known for its long religious history. The visit typically includes key Coptic Cairo surroundings and historic religious landmarks, with your guide explaining how different communities shaped the city over many centuries.
1.5–2 hoursHead to Khan El Khalili for a guided walk through Cairo’s best-known bazaar district. Expect narrow lanes, bright metalwork, spice aromas, perfume shops, traditional souvenirs, and lively café corners. Your guide helps with orientation before you have free time for shopping and photography.
Evening at leisureReturn to the hotel after the bazaar visit. The evening is free for rest or optional experiences such as a felucca ride on the Nile, an Egyptian food tour, or a shopping-focused outing arranged with tour coordination support.
Day 41 stops2–3 hours, depending on flight time and trafficEnjoy breakfast at the hotel, check out, and transfer to Cairo International Airport. Your representative assists with departure arrangements, allowing enough time for normal airport procedures based on your flight schedule.
