For you, will an ancient site tour be within the southern threshold of Cairo? You can take this half-day excursion, which already has an inclusive visit to places such as the Red Pyramid, the bent pyramid on Dahshur, and the step pyramid of Zoser in Saqqara, which is done by a qualified Egyptologist. The country known as Egypt is filled with many historical conditions and purposes, and one part, 'Saqqara', is among the excessive burial sites and has some of the oldest and most famous temples and pyramids in the world. This is how the idea of scaling these great walls and their intricate designs comes into one's mind—that of the past and the rulers, and their alphabets and histories. First is the pyramid of Djoser, whom some consider to be the very first stone pyramid built in all of history, though only to show how far engineering had come in those days. After this tour, free time will be given if you wish to concentrate more on your interests.
