From December 10 to 15, Freya went on a FAM trip to Egypt with Travelmediate. Six action-packed days where \u201cimpressive\u201d is an understatement. Luxury, culture, chaos, silence, history, and gastronomy \u2014 we experienced it all. Below you will find our complete itinerary, day by day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Day 1: VIP start in Cairo<\/h4>\n

We left Amsterdam very <\/em>early on December 10 for a direct flight with Transavia to Cairo. Thanks to a smooth VIP service (fast lane through customs, no queues), we arrived feeling refreshed enough to get started right away.<\/p>\n

First impression of Cairo? Busy. VERY busy.
\nHonking horns, cars, mopeds, horses, donkeys, dirt roads full of children playing\u2014it’s like watching a movie unfold before your eyes.<\/p>\n

In the afternoon, we had a luxurious lunch at the Four Seasons Hotel and visited the brand-new Grand Egyptian Museum, an absolute must-see. The sarcophagus and mask of Tutankhamun were the highlights.<\/p>\n

We concluded with dinner at Tenaya overlooking the Nile and then checked in at Fairmont Nile City Hotel for a well-deserved night’s rest.<\/p>\n

Day 2: Pyramids, sun, too much food & on to Aswan<\/h4>\n

After a delicious breakfast, we did a site inspection of the Fairmont and then left for the ultimate bucket list moment: the pyramids of Giza. Our guide brought the whole story to life, including the fact that the sphinx really does no longer have a nose (he remained diplomatically silent about Asterix & Obelix’s involvement).<\/p>\n

At Khufu Restaurant, we had lunch in the sunshine with a view of the pyramids and the Cairo skyline. And once again, I ate far too much… but it was too delicious to leave behind.<\/p>\n
