The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization.

A museum of a new kind, unknown so far in Egypt and the entire Middle East region, the NMEC’s main goal is to “share knowledge”, to connect with the surrounding Egyptian society and to offer international visitors a richer and deeper insight into the meaning of Egyptian culture through the ages.

The Citadel of Cairo

Salah Al-Deen (known as Saladin to European historians) overthrew the Fatimid dynasty in 1171 AD, establishing the new Sunni Ayyubid Caliphate. Given the threat of invasion by European crusader armies, Saladin decided to improve the fortifications of the city and in 1176 AD he began construction of a wall that would encircle both Al-Qahira (today Islamic) and Fustat (Old Cairo). Saladin’s Citadel served as the seat of government in Egypt for 700 years until Khedive Ismail moved into Abdin Palace in newly constructed Downtown Cairo in the 1870’s.

Mohamed Ali Mosque

The Mosque of Muhammad Ali is located inside the Citadel of Salah al‑Din al‑Ayyubi (Saladin) in Cairo. It was built by Muhammad Ali Pasha (1220–1264 AH/1805–1848 AD), the founder of the Muhammad Ali Dynasty (1220–1372 AH/1805–1953 AD), on the site of Mamluk palaces. He had these demolished to make room for his new building, which is also known as the "Alabaster Mosque", in reference to its marble paneling on its interior and exterior walls. The mosque’s twin minarets are the highest in all of Egypt, each reaching a height of 84 meters. 

National Military Museum

This museum is the first of its kind to be devoted to the history of the Egyptian military through the ages. The museum was first located in the building of the Ministry of Defense in Falaki in 1937, after which it was transferred to another building in the neighborhood of Garden City in 1938, before finally being transferred to al-Haram Palace in 1949 in the Cairo Citadel in 1949.

National Police Museum

The National Police Museum is one of the museums in the Salah al-Din Citadel, located in its northern section. Its exhibitions display the history of Egypt’s police force.

Sultan Hassan & Elrefai Mosques

Mosque of Sultan Hassan is a primal example of the early Islamic Mamluk architecture between 1356 A.D and 1363 A.D. The Mosque is 150m in length and covering 7,906 sq m inland and its walls reach the height of 36 m.

In the beautiful morning after breakfast, our tour guide will meet you to take you to enjoy a journey in the west bank of Luxor where you will visit:

The Valley of the Kings

The Valley of the Kings, located across the Nile from ancient Thebes (modern Luxor), served as the burial site for rulers of Egypt’s 18th–20th Dynasties (c. 1550–1069 BC), along with some royal family members and a few high-ranking non-royals.

The Tomb of King Tut Ankh Amun

The tomb of King Tutankhamun (c. 1336–1327 BC) is famous as the only largely intact royal tomb found in the Valley of the Kings, discovered by Howard Carter in 1922, revealing priceless golden artifacts.

The Tomb of King Ramses VI

This tomb was begun by King Ramesses V (c.1147–1143 BC) of the Twentieth Dynasty. Although it is uncertain whether he was ultimately buried here, it is clear that his uncle Ramesses VI (c.1143–1136 BC) enlarged the tomb and used it.

The Tomb of King Seti I

The tomb of Sety I is one of the longest, deepest, and most beautifully decorated tombs in the Valley of the Kings. Sety I (c.1294–1279 BC) was the second king of the Nineteenth Dynasty, and father of Ramesses II (the Great). His tomb, number 17 in the Valley of the Kings, is sometimes called “Belzoni’s tomb” after its discoverer.

The Tomb of King Merenptah

Merenptah’s tomb, the Valley of the Kings’ second-largest, shows ancient Greek and Coptic graffiti; floods damaged its lower walls, but upper reliefs remain well preserved.

The Tomb of King Ramses III

KV 11, a popular and well-preserved tomb, was begun by Sethnakht (1186–1184 BC) but completed by Ramses III (1184–1153 BC) after hitting another tomb’s shaft.

The Tomb of King Ramses IV

 Originally intended to be much larger, KV 2 was cut short at 89m on the early death of the pharaoh (1147 BC) and a pillared hall was converted to be the burial chamber. The sarcophagus is in place with a magnificent goddess Nut filling the ceiling above it.

The Temple of Hatshepsut

Hatshepsut (c. 1473–1458 BC), the queen-turned-pharaoh, built the impressive Djeser-djeseru temple at Deir al-Bahari, across the Nile from Karnak, designed by her chief steward Senenmut.

The Colossi of Memnon

These two faceless colossi are the first thing visitors see when they reach the west bank of the Nile opposite Luxor. they tower 60 feet (18 m) above the plains and are estimated to weigh an enormous 720 tons each.

For 200 years, the structure was buried under almost 40 feet (12 metres) of desert sand and silt from the Nile, which incredibly helped to conserve it to near-perfection.

Kom Ombo Temple

The temple is unique for its dedication to two different deities: the local crocodile-headed god Sobek, and the first "god of the Kingdom", the falcon-headed god Horus the Elder (also called Haroeris).

Not only is it architecturally duplicated, with two sets of courts, hypostyle halls and sanctuaries, the twin temple is symbolic of the local and Universalist themes that the two different deities represented.
