Cairo Top Tours will pick you up from any location in Cairo or Giza to begin your Egypt Tours to see the Giza Pyramids and the famed Saqqara Necropolis. You will first visit the Giza Necropolis. The Great Sphinx, a lion statue with a human head guarding the necropolis for over 4500 years, is believed to be the founder of the necropolis. The Valley Temple of King Chephren, where his royal body was mummified before burial, is located in front of the pyramid of Cheops, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
Following your tour of the Giza Pyramids, you will be taken to the Saqqara Necropolis, the largest and most renowned Step Pyramid of Pharaoh Djoser. It rises above the necropolis and is visible from every angle. Around 2650 B.C., Imhotep, a renowned architect from the Ancient Kingdom, built the pyramid. According to tradition, he was responsible for changing the shape of the ancient Egyptian tomb from a rectangular mastaba to a pyramid. He commanded that one mastaba be put on top of another.
During your Cairo Trips, you will have lunch at a local restaurant before being transported back to your accommodation.
