The Private Accessible 10 hour Alexandria Shore Excursion to Cairo takes you to the heart of Egypt and allows you to experience ancient Cairo like never before.  Leave no stone unturned as you marvel at the impressive structures built by ancient Egyptians, with little more than hand tools, and learn the history of the area through ancient artifacts that date back thousands of years!

Your day will begin as your tour guide and driver pick you up at the Alexandria cruise dock or accessible Alexandria hotel in a wheelchair accessible van with wheelchair ramp. Enjoy a comfortable ride from the cruise dock into Cairo where your first stop will be at the Pyramids of Giza, one of the seven wonders of the Ancient World, along with the Pyramids of King Cheops, Chephren and Mykerinus(Please note, the pyramid burial chambers are not included in this tour as they are not recommended/accessible for those with health problems, limited mobility or claustrophobia). This Alexandria accessible shore excursion continues with a stop at one of the most recognizable structures in Egypt, the Sphinx.

After lunch at an accessible restaurant in Cairo, you will dive deep into the history of the area with a visit to the Egyptian Museum. This museum includes hundreds of thousands of artifacts that represent almost 6,000 years of history! This accessible Alexandria shore excursion will also take you through the Tutankhamen collection. Tutankhamen, also known as the boy king, is one of the best known pharaohs and his tomb was discovered during 1920’s, nearly intact. This led to the discovery of many artifacts that has helped archaeologists unravel the mysteries of living and dying in ancient Egypt.

Complete your accessible Alexandria shore excursion with a visit to the Papyrus Institute where you will learn about how this ancient writing material was made and survived thousands of years. This institute provides a perfect opportunity to pick up souvenirs and trinkets to remember your day in Cairo!
