Itinerary

Day 1: Discover the Wonders of Tanis and Bubastis

As the sun rises, you'll be greeted by our expert Egyptologist guide, ready to whisk you away on a 30-minute drive to the mystical city of Tanis.

This city, steeped in biblical history, is none other than Zoan from the ancient land of Goshen, where Moses was discovered amidst the delta marshes.

Once the thriving capital during the New Kingdom era, Tanis is home to the awe-inspiring ruins of the temples of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.

But the adventure doesn't stop there! Next, we'll journey to Bubastis, a two-hour drive from Cairo. Known as Per-Bast, this city was the worship center of the feline goddess Bast.

Here, you'll find remnants of temples dedicated to King Teti and Pepi the First, offering a glimpse into the past that's sure to captivate your imagination.

After a day of exploration and discovery, we'll ensure your safe return to the comfort of your Cairo hotel.

Join us for this once-in-a-lifetime experience, where history comes alive and memories are made. We can't wait to share the wonders of Egypt with you!

Day 2: Experience the Unique Sights of Cairo

Embark on an extraordinary journey with Sun Pyramids Tours, where every moment is designed to create lasting memories. Your adventure begins when our guide will pick you up from your hotel to explore the hidden gems of Cairo.

Our first stop is the renowned Cave Church of St. Simon. Nestled in the Moqattam Mountain, this site is home to seven unique cave churches, each with its own story to tell. The Monastery of St. Simon the Tanner, the largest among them, boasts an arena that can accommodate 20,000 spectators. This is a must-visit for those seeking a different perspective on Egypt's rich history.

Our tour concludes with a visit to The City of the Dead, an Islamic necropolis and cemetery nestled below the Mokattam Hills in southeastern Cairo. This historical site offers a unique glimpse into Cairo's past.

Your day of exploration ends with a delicious lunch, leaving you with a taste of Egypt's vibrant culture and cuisine. Join us at Sun Pyramids Tours and experience the magic of Cairo like never before!
