What Fits Into 2 Days In Egypt
These are the published 2-day itineraries. Each one is private and can be re-ordered, extended or shortened, so treat them as a starting shape rather than a fixed program.
Quick answer: It is enough for one region. Most travellers use it for Cairo, or for Cairo with a single flight to Luxor. Two days works best as Cairo only: Giza and Saqqara on the first day, the Egyptian Museum and the old city on the second.
