The tour begins with an exploration of the evolution of Egyptian pyramids, starting at the Step Pyramid Complex of King Djoser, which is 4,700 years old and the first Egyptian pyramid. Next, visit the 5th Dynasty Pyramid of King Unas, adorned with interior hieroglyphics, followed by the oldest tombs decorated with ancient scenes of daily life and funerals, dating back 4,500 years.
- A basic entry ticket is included, but an additional ticket is required to enter the step pyramid.
- Memphis and Sakkara - A 10-minute drive takes you to the Memphis Open Air Museum, which houses the ruins of the Egyptian temple of the god Ptah, including the colossal statue of King Ramses II and the second-largest Egyptian Sphinx of the New Kingdom, often representing the female pharaoh Queen Hatshepsut.
After Memphis, head north towards Giza. In Giza, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, with vegan and vegetarian options available. An optional stop at the Papyrus Institute offers an engaging experience for children to learn about ancient paper manufacturing, with the opportunity to write their names in the ancient Egyptian alphabet.
- Pyramids of Giza - After the lunch break, proceed directly to the Giza pyramids, starting with the Great Pyramid of Khufu and the Pyramid of Chephren (Khafre pyramid). Return to the van to head to the Giza Pyramids Western Side Panorama, where you can view all three pyramids together and enjoy a camel ride. Capture memorable photos during your Egypt trip.
Continue to the Valley Temple, an impressive limestone and red granite structure near the Great Sphinx of Giza. After visiting the Sphinx, you will be driven back to your hotel or apartment.
