Overview

See Cairo and Giza in a single day from Makadi Bay on this private road trip with hotel pickup and an air-conditioned car. After an early start you cross the Eastern Desert to the Giza plateau to stand before the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx, then visit a museum — the Grand Egyptian Museum or the Egyptian Museum — for the treasures of the pharaohs, with lunch and a knowledgeable guide along the way. It's a long day (roughly 4–5 hours' drive each way from the Red Sea coast), so expect an early departure and late return — but you tick off Egypt's headline sights without changing hotels.
