Itinerary
Our ancient exploration begins in Rome - once known as the ‘capital of the world’. Meet your fam of 27-35s this afternoon before we kick off our trip with an Italian feast at a local restaurant (that also provides jobs for people with disabilities!) After dinner, ticking off historical sights (and tossing coins) will be on the agenda as we take on Rome's cobblestoned streets with a walking tour orientation.

Nooo, it’s time to leave Rome already?! We’ll see the city pass us by as we catch the train to the airport this morning. And a short flight later, we’ll have arrived in another historical hotspot - known for its mythology, architecture and well, food. Welcome to Athens! The city’s yours to explore this evening.

Goodbye Athens, you’ve been nothing but mesmerising. Now it’s time to check out some mummies.We'll find a city of ornate mosques, sparkling skyscrapers & sprawling avenues of 19th-century faded grandeur awaiting us. Egypt's capital is full of energy, but we'll save the proper exploring for tomorrow. Oh, and dinner’s on us tonight!

Aaaand now…the moment you have all been waiting for. Time to see the Pyramids of Giza! Get the tissues ready, seeing the iconic Sphinx & pyramids in all their 4,600 year old glory will make for a day that stirs you to the very core.

This morning you'll have the chance to join an optional tour of Old Cairo, the city's magnificent historical hotspot - think Salah El Din Citadel, the Alabaster mosque and many more amazing sights. After that, you're free to chill or head out to explore Cairo. Looking for things to do in the evening? How about a cruise on the Nile with a buffet dinner & show?

Q & A
Popular FAQs
Cairo: Tipping’s a big deal in Egypt - it's part of the culture and helps support locals (especially those working in tourism). During your trip, you’ll be expected to tip people like hotel staff, local guides, porters, and restaurant crews. To keep it simple (and avoid the awkward maths), your Trip Manager will organise a tipping kitty. They'll let you know the suggested amount upon arrival in Egypt, and collect it in USD or Egyptian Pounds to cover group service tips along the way. Heads-up: this doesn’t include a tip for your Trip Manager.
