Cairo and Siwa Oasis Luxury Tours

After enjoying breakfast at the hotel, our representative will meet you in the lobby for a day of captivating Cairo tours. The first stop will be the Giza Pyramids, where you'll be amazed by their grandeur and the rich history they represent, spanning over 3,500 years.

I highly recommend visiting the Great Pyramid of Cheops, built by King Snefru and his son, King Cheops. This remarkable structure not only astounds with its size but also showcases the extraordinary craftsmanship of its builders. Next, head to the high plateau to view the three pyramids of King Chephren, son of King Snefru.

If you have the opportunity, enjoy a camel ride across the Giza Plateau for a closer look at the Great Sphinx of Giza—a statue with the body of a lion and the head of a man, believed to have been created for King Khafre. The funerary complex also includes the valley temple where King Khafre’s mummification process took place. You can explore this temple and see the king’s mummified remains.

Following this, we’ll visit the ancient city of Memphis, where you’ll explore the impressive open-air museum, featuring the magnificent sphinx and the grand statue of King Ramses II. Later, we’ll have lunch at a local restaurant before returning to the hotel.

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s tour of Cairo!
