8 Days Jordan Egypt Tour Package from Kenya | Pyramids, Petra & Sinai

Arrive at Cairo International Airport. Your representative meets you at arrivals and assists through immigration and customs. Transfer to your hotel in Cairo. Check in and overnight.

After breakfast, start with the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx — the only ancient Wonder of the World still standing. Your guide provides context on construction, purpose, and the theories that still generate argument among historians. Stop at a papyrus factory to see how the material was made and used. Afternoon in Old Cairo — the Hanging Church, one of the oldest Christian churches in Egypt, suspended above the gatehouse of a Roman fortress. Dinner and overnight in Cairo.

After breakfast, drive east toward the Sinai Peninsula. Cross the Ahmed Hamdy Tunnel beneath the Suez Canal — the crossing that links Africa and Asia — with a possible view of ships transiting between the Red Sea and the Mediterranean. Continue through Moses Springs and the palm groves en route to St. Katherine in the Sinai interior. Arrive for dinner and overnight at St. Katherine.

Optional early wake-up for those who want to climb Mount Sinai before dawn — the summit is where the Ten Commandments are said to have been revealed to Moses, and the sunrise from the top is the reason most people make the climb. Descend for breakfast and a visit to St. Katherine's Monastery at the base — one of the oldest continuously inhabited Christian monasteries in the world, dating to the 6th century. Drive south along the Gulf of Aqaba to Nuweiba. Afternoon free for swimming in the Red Sea. Dinner and overnight in Nuweiba.

After breakfast, take the ferry across the Gulf of Aqaba from Nuweiba to Aqaba, Jordan. Cross into Jordan and drive north to Petra. Arrive in time for dinner and overnight in Petra.

The centrepiece of the Jordan leg. After breakfast, enter Petra through the Siq — a narrow sandstone canyon that winds for over a kilometre before opening to reveal the Treasury (Al-Khazneh), the most photographed façade in the Middle East. Carved by the Nabateans in 300 BC, Petra is a full ancient city: the Roman Theatre, the Royal Tombs, the Colonnaded Street, and the Cathedral are all accessible on foot. Your guide narrates the history as you walk. Drive to Amman in the late afternoon. Dinner and overnight in Amman.

Morning drive south on the King's Highway to Madaba — a town built over layers of Byzantine mosaics, many still being uncovered beneath existing houses. The highlight is the 6th-century mosaic map of the Holy Land on the floor of the Greek Orthodox Church of St. George, still in its original position after fifteen centuries. Continue to Mount Nebo, ten kilometres west, where Moses is said to have looked out over the Promised Land before his death. The views across the Jordan Valley to the West Bank and Jerusalem are extraordinary on a clear day. Return to Amman for a panoramic city tour. Dinner and overnight in Amman.

Breakfast at the hotel. Transfer to Queen Alia International Airport for your return flight to Nairobi.
