Hotel Pickup: Begin Your Journey Through Time

Your day begins with a convenient morning pickup from your hotel. Your private tour guide will meet you at your hotel and escort you to a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Relax during the drive as you head towards your first destination, the Giza Plateau.

Explore the Giza Plateau: Stand in Awe of Egypt’s Greatest Wonders

Start your journey with a visit to the legendary Giza Plateau, home to Egypt’s most iconic pyramids. Begin at the Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), the largest and oldest of the three pyramids at Giza. Your guide will share fascinating insights into its construction, history, and the pharaohs who built these monumental structures.

Next, visit the Pyramid of Khafre and the Pyramid of Menkaure, each with its unique features and stories. Don’t miss the opportunity to take stunning photos with the pyramids as your backdrop.

The Great Sphinx: Unravel the Mystery of the Sphinx

No visit to the Giza Plateau is complete without seeing the Great Sphinx, the mysterious guardian of the pyramids. Carved from a single block of limestone, the Sphinx combines the body of a lion with the head of a pharaoh. Your guide will explain the myths and legends surrounding this iconic statue and its significance in ancient Egyptian culture.

Optional Camel/Horse Ride: Embrace Adventure in True Bedouin Style

For those seeking an extra touch of adventure, consider an optional camel or horse ride. This experience allows you to explore the desert landscape surrounding the pyramids in true Bedouin style. Whether on the back of a camel or horse, you’ll gain a unique perspective of the pyramids and create memories that last a lifetime. This optional activity is available for an additional fee and can be arranged on the spot.

Lunch at a Local Restaurant: Enjoy the Flavors of Egypt

After your exploration of the Giza Plateau, take a break to enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. Savor authentic Egyptian cuisine as you relax and recharge for the next part of your journey.

Discover Sakkara: Walk Among the Ruins of Egypt’s Oldest Pyramid Complex
Next, journey to Sakkara, the vast ancient necropolis that served as the burial ground for the ancient Egyptian capital, Memphis. The highlight of Sakkara is the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the world’s oldest pyramid and a revolutionary architectural achievement by the famous architect Imhotep. Your guide will walk you through the history of this site and its importance in the evolution of pyramid construction.

Explore the surrounding tombs and monuments, where intricate carvings and hieroglyphs tell the stories of the pharaohs and nobility who were laid to rest here. Sakkara offers a more intimate and less crowded experience, allowing you to fully appreciate the artistry and innovation of ancient Egyptian builders.

Discover the Pyramids of Dahshur: Explore Egypt’s Hidden Gem

Your adventure continues with a visit to Dahshur, a royal necropolis famous for its uniquely shaped pyramids. The most notable are the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid, both built by Pharaoh Sneferu.

• Bent Pyramid: This pyramid is named for its unusual shape, with a noticeable change in angle halfway up. Your guide will explain why this design was chosen and what it reveals about ancient Egyptian engineering.
• Red Pyramid: Known as the first true smooth-sided pyramid, the Red Pyramid is often less crowded, offering a peaceful exploration. Climb inside to see the inner chambers, where you can marvel at the construction techniques used over 4,000 years ago.
