After breakfast at the hotel, our program begins with a visit to the world-renowned Great Pyramids of Giza, which is located on the outskirts of bustling Cairo. These magnificent ancient structures, such as the oldest and largest Cheops pyramid, Khafre with its intact top, and the smaller Menkaura pyramid, stand as remarkable remnants of the ancient world. Adjacent to the pyramids, we'll encounter the enigmatic Sphinx, a captivating limestone sculpture that attracts global attention. This excursion to the Great Pyramids promises to be an unforgettable highlight of your Cairo tour.
Subsequently, our Cairo day tour proceeds to Saqqara, which is situated approximately 27 km southwest of Cairo. Here, we explore the Step Pyramid, which is also known as the Djoser Pyramid, an architectural marvel that marks a significant milestone in the development of pyramid structures. Serving as the world's first stone construction of its kind, it evolved from the simple mastaba design to its renowned shape.
Continuing our journey, we will visit Memphis, which was the ancient capital of Egypt during the period of unification. This historical city is home to the colossal statue of Ramses II and the magnificent alabaster Sphinx. After relishing a delectable lunch at one of the best restaurants, we will transfer you back to your hotel. Optionally, you can partake in a Cairo Nile Dinner Cruise, offering transportation, dinner, and captivating performances such as Belly Dancing and Tanoura Dance. Enjoy a restful overnight stay at your hotel.
