Let yourself be carried away by the metropolis of Cairo to beautiful sights. Al-Qahirah is the name of Cairo in Arabic, also known as ‘the victor’. Cairo is the area of about 150 square kilometers and with nearly 42 million inhabitants the largest city in Egypt and the whole of Africa. But the many special monuments also make the city invincible.
This trip gives you the opportunity to visit one of the greatest museums in the world,-the Egyptian museum. Admire the Egyptian museum with its royal statues, granite sphinxes, the figures from the realm of the Dead, the shrouds and burial gifts. Very special are the death mask of Toetacharmon and his beautiful coffin that weighs 225 kilos and is made of solid gold. Another highlight of the museum is the mummy hall.
One of the highlights of this excursion is a visit to the Giza plateau. In less than 100 years, the ‘ancient Egyptians’ built the 3 pyramid complexes that served as tombs for their dead Pharaohs. Also on the plateau is the well-known lion-like sphinx guardian of the Giza plateau, and among the Arabs also known as Abu al-Hol, “Father of fear.”
