Upon arrival at Cairo International Airport, Cairo Top Tours will provide a private vehicle to accompany you to your hotel in Cairo or Giza. The tour includes a visit to the Giza Pyramids, including the Great Pyramid of King Cheops, which was built 4500 years ago as an eternal home for the semi-god king. The pyramids are impressive, standing at 146 meters and 230 meters long on each side.
The tour continues to the high plateau, where you can see the three pyramids, including the pyramids of King Chephren and King Mycerinus, as well as the queen's pyramids. A Bedouin guide will take amazing photos while you enjoy a camel ride around the Giza Pyramids.
The Sphinx of Giza is part of the pyramid complex and is believed to be built for the king himself, symbolizing his power as a lion and genius as a human. The Valley Temple of Chephren is also nearby, where the mummification of the royal body took place during funeral rituals.
After lunch, you will continue your tour of Giza, visiting Saqqara, the necropolis of an earlier period 200 years before the great kings who built the pyramids. You will see the first-ever stone pyramid, the Step Pyramid, and the tomb of King Teti, who ruled Egypt during the 6th dynasty.
Next, you will visit Memphis, the ancient city of Egypt, an open-air museum with many artifacts and statues of King Ramses II, and the alabaster sphinx, the second biggest in Egypt's history. After finishing your Cairo trips, you can enjoy activities like the Sound and Light Show in Giza Pyramids or a fancy Nile Dinner Cruise in Cairo.
