3-day Christmas Trip in Cairo

Enjoy breakfast at your hotel and then meet with your tour guide, who has been certified for guiding at the Pyramids of Giza. Today you are going to visit the biggest pyramid of King Cheops, the pyramid that was built by his son Chephren, and finally, the pyramid that is located close to that of his great-grandfather, King Mycerinus (Menkaure). You will have a bird's-eye view from the plateau of the full expanse and layout of the Giza Pyramid area; here you will also have the opportunity to ride a camel should you so choose.

Your visit will then take you to explore the Valley Temple and the Great Sphinx. This mummification temple was put into use for several rituals, such as the opening of the mouth. Be taken through a passage where you can enjoy a close view of the majestic man-lion statue, greatly crafted from bedrock. The guide will explain the ancient secret of sphinxes in the culture of ancient Egypt.

Enjoy a delightful lunch in the most scenic restaurants with a view of the Pyramids, which is the continuation of your Cairo excursions. The Saqqara step pyramid district is home to some of history's earliest stone pyramids, including the Step Pyramid of King Djoser, completed by the great architect Imhotep.

The tomb of Kagemni, who was a viceroy during the 6th Dynasty, shall be entered and visited by you. The tomb premises are adorned with a splendid array of well-preserved scenes that show possibly all kinds of animals and offerings.

The last stop is the ancient city of Memphis, now known as Mit Rahina, where you will visit the Open-Air Museum that showcases artifacts and statues, including those of King Ramses II and alabaster sphinxes of Memphis.

You will be driven back to your hotel after an eventful day of sightseeing.
