Full Day Trip to Giza Pyramids, Memphis, and Medium
Go on a historic tour of Cairo's Pyramids of Giza, one of Egypt's most well-known sites. This monument's size and history will astound you. We give you a private, air-conditioned vehicle and an experienced guide who speaks English.
Discover the best way to see Egypt's most well-known pyramids, which are situated outside of Cairo on the Giza Plateau.All the information you need to enjoy this activity, including how to get there... Since the Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure pyramids are all situated on the same archaeological site, a visit to the Great Sphinx is sometimes coupled with a visit to the pyramids.
Discover Egypt's first capital and the source of unification. Memphis was regarded as ancient Egypt's first. History books chronicle its origins, linking it to the unification of the two lands and the establishment of the ancient Pharaonic state, by unifying the Nile Delta with Upper Egypt.
The Meidum Pyramid, the world's second-oldest step pyramid, will be our destination. During the Fourth Dynasty, Prince Huni constructed it, and Sneferu finished it...There were once seven steps, but now there are just four. The graves and funeral temples of the state's princes from that time period encircle it.
We start our tour by visiting the pyramids. We will take you to the Giza Pyramids after meeting you outside your hotel in the morning. The Pyramid of His Majesty King Khufu will be your first sight. Khufu decided to relocate north to Giza for his own memorial monument after his father and predecessor, Snefru (2575–2551), had decided to erect his pyramids at Dahshur, on the southernmost portion of the Memphite necropolis. Three pyramid complexes would be built on this location, the first of which would be this one.
Then we move to the pyramid of Khafre. Theories about these events remain, to this day, pure speculation. Practical or religious considerations may have been factors. Khafre built his pyramid northwest of his father's. The diagonal of Khufu's pyramid is nearly exactly maintained by his own.
The Pyramid of Menkaure is one of our two stops in the Giza region. You will see the pyramid and also learn about this king and the different policies he followed. Afterwards, we'll enjoy the stories and legends of the Sphinx...Finally, we'll head to a local restaurant for a delicious Egyptian meal, after which we'll continue our journey to Dahshur.
Your air-conditioned car will pick you up and drive you to Memphis. According to Manetho, it was founded around 3050/3040 by King Narmer/Menes. This idea is supported by the fact that the oldest known tombs were built during this period, but the site was inhabited well before the reign of this king.
Our final stop will be the Meidum Pyramid before you head back to the hotel. A pyramid at Meidum, 80 kilometers south of Memphis... It is not included in the Memphite necropolis, which stretches from Abu Raouash to Dahshur, because of its isolated location.
