Tour Details

The historical day trip to El Minya from Cairo is an exciting opportunity to discover one of the lesser-known treasures of Egypt. A Cairo to El Minya day tour, including a Tell El Amarna visit, would take you deep into the archaeological significance of the region. El Minya is situated around 250 kilometers southwards of Cairo City and is well-known for its important archaeological sites and ancient tombs. The excursion includes seeing the Beni Hasan Tombs adorned by well-preserved paintings showing life back during ancient Egypt times, as well as visiting the Tell El Amarna site, which was the original residence of the acknowledged heretic king Akhenaten. This journey, often included in Egypt holidays, helps one learn more about diverse aspects of Egypt from an obscure perspective, different from those commonly seen by tourists who visit popular areas.
