Top tours to Cairo At Cairo International Airport, your tour leader will be waiting for you with a signboard bearing your name. You will be driven in a private new vehicle to the hotel in Giza to drop off your luggage before beginning your Cairo itinerary with a visit to the Giza Pyramids. You will see the Great Pyramid of King Cheops, Chephren's Second Pyramid, and Mycerinus's Third Pyramid.
Before visiting the Valley Temple and the Great Sphinx inside the Chephren Pyramid Complex, your Egyptologist will explain to you the most significant historical events that occurred since the beginning of the dynastic period of Egypt's history and pass through the different eras that affected Egypt throughout thousands of years. After that, we will head to the area where you can take an optional camel ride in Giza. we will reach the sphinx by means of a passageway to stand very close to the impressive statue of a lion with a man's head that was cut from only one rock to end up with a total of 73 meters long.
Enjoy your delectable lunch in one of the most opulent eateries while looking out at the pyramids and sphinx. You will go to the Saqqara Necropolis, which is the first-era royal burial site and dates back to about 200 years before the construction of the three pyramids in Giza. Upon arrival, you will see the Step Pyramid, which was built for King Djoser by the brilliant architect Imhotep for the first time entirely out of stone. This pyramid is a great example of how the construction of pyramids has changed over time because it is made of six square levels stacked on top of one another. Additionally, you will be able to visit King Teti's pyramid, which was in charge of Egypt during the sixth ruling family.
Your next stop will be where the old city of Memphis used to be, the 1st capital of Egypt, and what remains only is an open-air museum with many monuments and statues for King Ramses II and the alabaster sphinx. You will be transferred back to your hotel for check-in after finishing your Cairo trips for the first day, now you have the option to enjoy one of our activities during nighttime, like attending the Sound and Light Show in Giza Pyramids or a superior Nile Dinner Cruise in Cairo.
