Sure thing! After savoring a delightful breakfast, embark on a fascinating Cairo day tour to explore the marvels of the Giza Pyramids, Dahshur, and Memphis, guided by our expert.
Commence your adventure with a Giza Pyramids tour, where the grandeur of these ancient Egyptian structures, crafted over 4500 years ago, will leave you in awe. The Great Pyramid of King Cheops stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and engineering prowess of ancient builders. Comprising over 2.3 million limestone blocks, this monumental structure, reaching a height of 146 meters, served as the eternal resting place for the mighty king.
As you traverse the high plateau, take in the breathtaking view of the three pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mycerinus. Chephren, the son of Cheops, left his mark with a slightly smaller pyramid, adorned with remnants of the outer casing at its summit.
Witness the enigmatic Great Sphinx in Giza, believed to be constructed by King Chephren, and explore the Valley Temple, where the mummification process for the king took place.
Continue your Cairo exploration by visiting the ancient city of Memphis, now Mit Rahina, and explore the open-air museum featuring the second-largest alabaster sphinx and the colossal statue of the powerful King Ramses II from the New Kingdom.
The journey then leads to the Dahshur archaeological site, home to the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid, both crafted for King Snefru, father of King Cheops. The Bent Pyramid's unique outer casing and the Red Pyramid's distinctive reddish limestone blocks make them standout wonders in Egyptian history.
Cap off your adventure with a delectable lunch at a top-rated restaurant overlooking the Giza Pyramids before a transfer back to your hotel.
