Cairo layover tours from the airport
Have a long layover at Cairo airport? Turn it into a visit to the Pyramids. We meet you at the airport, take you to Giza with a private guide and return you in time for your next flight.
Choose the Pyramids layover tour, add the Grand Egyptian Museum with the Pyramids and GEM layover tour, or see the Pyramids, museum and Khan El Khalili on a longer stop.
Frequently asked questions
How long does my layover need to be?
As a guide, allow at least six to seven hours between flights for a Pyramids visit, and longer if you want to add a museum. Traffic in Cairo can be heavy, so we plan with a safety margin.
Do I need a visa to leave the airport?
Yes, you need a valid entry visa. Many nationalities can buy one on arrival or apply for an e-visa in advance. See our Egypt visa guide for details.
What happens to my luggage?
If your bags are checked through to your final destination, you only need hand luggage. Otherwise, the vehicle can carry your bags during the tour.
