It was associated with the unification of the Nile Delta and Upper Egypt during the reign of King Mina and remained the capital of Egypt during the Old Kingdom and the administrative and military capital during the New Kingdom. Manif had several names during its nearly four-thousand-year history. Its ancient Egyptian name was Enb-Hajj (translated as 'White Walls').
Then, we will continue our tour together and explore Dahshur. On this hill were built the pyramids of the kings of the Old and Middle Kingdoms, the most famous of which are the two pyramids of the first king of the Fourth Dynasty, King Sneferu: a semi-fractured pyramid and another complete pyramid one kilometer north of the first pyramid, called the Red Pyramid. There are also pyramids dating to the Middle Kingdom, such as the pyramid of King Amenemhat II, which is in poor condition; the pyramid of King Senwosret III, surrounded by the tombs of the princesses Sat Hathor and Merit; and the Black Pyramid of King Amenemhat III, which is in a poor state of preservation and is located near the southern pyramid of King Sneferu.

Non-Muslims are always welcome to visit mosques in Egypt. Even so, it is advisable to ask permission if you want to go to mosques outside of major cities where people are not used to tourists. Exceptions also apply to mosques in which relatives of the Prophet Mohammed are buried or during prayer time.
Temperatures of 35 °C are typical in the summer due to the Red Sea's dry desert climate. We advise bringing warm items like beanies, warm socks, and a windbreaker because the winter months can get chilly in the evenings.

The majority of our tour packages are made for travelers with only a week or so to spend in the country, but if you want to take your time and truly enjoy everything Egypt has to offer, we suggest two weeks or longer.
It's customary to tip wait staff directly between $5 to 10% at restaurants. A few Egyptian pounds might be suitable for a modest favor, such as helping with baggage or parking a car. No more than five. In Egypt, it's common to see someone taking care of the restroom's cleanliness. It is proper to give them one Egyptian pound. Tipping your tour guide and driver is totally voluntary, but if you receive excellent service, you should think about doing so. Please feel free to tip whatever you believe your experience was worth if you choose to do so.
Yes, you can visit Sharm El Sheikh during Ramadan, but it's important to be respectful of local customs and traditions, such as avoiding eating, drinking, and smoking in public during daylight hours.
