Itinerary
This trip is handled by our firm, which also handles international airline tickets and transportation from your Aswan hotel to your return to Aswan. Our first stop will be the Great Pyramid and the Giza Plateau. Two significant eras that your guide will discuss are the Fourth and Fifth Dynasties of the Pharaohs.
Additionally, they will give a synopsis of Al-Ma'mun and his impact on the Great Pyramid. Son of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, the Great Pyramid has an aperture called the "Al-Ma'mun" opening.
He brought his warriors and proceeded to look for the original entrance, which was on the northern side of the pyramid, after learning of the riches that were inside. The ancient Egyptians associated the pyramid's entrance with the stars located to the north. Al-Ma'mun and his soldiers were able to dig this entrance, which we use today. It lies directly below the original entrance, which was closed and they were unable to reach it. The soldiers entered but did not find the treasures inside the pyramid.
Enjoy watching each pyramid with its story and tale. Then move to the Sphinx Pyramid, whose history also links King Khafre, who built it, and Thutmose IV, who exploited it with the priests to consolidate his rule. Learn through it about the influence of the priests on the kings and queens during their rule.
After lunch, you will be transferred to the Saqqara area. Djoser is famous for his creative tomb, which dominates the Saqqara landscape. The Step Pyramid by Djoser is a remarkable divergence from earlier architectural designs. It establishes a number of significant precedents, the most significant of which is probably that it was the first stone monumental construction. Explore modern Cairo and the Nile through different eyes through a felucca.
