After breakfast, you'll be greeted by your private tour guide and transferred to the Giza Pyramids area, where you'll see the oldest enormous structures that were constructed 4500 years ago by the famous kings of ancient Egypt during the old kingdom. You'll see the great pyramid of King Cheops, the middle pyramid of his son Chephren, and the third pyramid of his grandson Mycerinus.
The Valley Temple of Chephren and the Great Sphinx, that enormous block of stone carved in the form of a mythical creature with a head of a king that is thought to be King Chephren, will be visited after we travel to the high plateau to take in the scenery, try camel riding at the Giza Pyramids, and take awesome photos.
We are going next to Saqqara, another impressive necropolis, to see the Step Pyramid of King Djoser of the 3rd dynasty, which was constructed there by the renowned architect Imhotep. We will also see the ruins of the hep-sed court, King Teti's pyramid, and the tomb of Kagemni, one of Teti's most illustrious viziers.
We will now travel to the location of ancient Memphis to see the open-air museum that contains numerous artifacts from the old kingdom, the middle kingdom, and the new kingdom. We will also see the Memphis Sphinx, which is the second-largest sphinx in all of Egypt, as well as the enormous statue of Ramses II.
