Day 4:
We begin today exploring the treasures of the world-renowned Egyptian museum.

If time allows, we visit the famous Muhammad Ali Mosque and the Coptic churches.

Our recommendations for additional sites:

• The new Egyptian museum- $29
• Sakkara and Memphis- $20
• Mummy chamber $25
• entering the big Pyramid inside 25$.

Late afternoon we start our long ride back to the border. Usually, we return around midnight.
We assist you on the Egyptian side of the border but you will cross independently on the Israeli side.  Taxies are usually available at the exit of the crossing. If not, please ask one of the security guards at the border to call a taxi for you. They will assist you with this.
You will need a night in a hotel either Eilat or on the Red Sea at the end of your tour.

We recommend spending the night in a resort on the Red Sea near Taba instead of spending the night in Eilat. Prices are usually lower than in Eilat and you will not have to cross the border in the middle of the night after a very long ride from Cairo.
