Journey Overview

Experience a fascinating historical tour to Al Menia! Take a motorboat ride to Tal Al Amarna, the ancient city of King Akhenaton, who was the father of Tutankhamun. Discover the rich history and significance of this remarkable site.

Your Journey

  1. Your guide will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo for an early 6:00 a.m. start for an interesting and historical tour to Al Menia. Al Menia is approximately a 4-hour drive from Cairo. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to a motorboat to visit Tal Al Amarna, the Virgin City of King Akhenaton, who was also the father of Tutankhamun. It is called the Virgin City because Akhenaton believed in only one God, but most of his people disagreed, leading to a revolution that forced him to start a new city. After Akhenaton's death, his son moved to Luxor and changed his name from Tutankhaten to Tutankhamun, meaning "living image of Amun." Next, you'll visit Bani Hassan, where you will have the opportunity to view many tombs from the Old and Middle Kingdoms. After this truly interesting tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Cairo.

Une belle parenthèse

En regardant nos photos au retour, nous avons reparlé de cette journée avec plaisir. Certains moments étaient plus fréquentés que prévu, mais nous avons aussi trouvé des instants plus calmes. Nous étions contents de ne rien avoir prévu de compliqué pour la soirée.

Die Entscheidung hat sich gelohnt

Wir wollten einen Tag anders verbringen als im Hotel. Das hat für uns gut funktioniert. Mir gefiel, dass Fragen möglich waren und man sich auch mit kleineren Details beschäftigen konnte. Danach waren wir froh, für den Abend nichts Anstrengendes mehr geplant zu haben.

Etwas mehr Zeit wäre schön gewesen

Wir wollten einen Tag anders verbringen als im Hotel. Das hat für uns gut funktioniert. Mir gefiel, dass Fragen möglich waren und man sich auch mit kleineren Details beschäftigen konnte. Nicht jeder Moment war perfekt, aber der Gesamteindruck war gut und wir kamen zufrieden zurück.
