Itinerary
Upon arrival at Sokhna Port, you will be warmly greeted by your English-speaking tour leader, who will accompany you to Cairo to begin your exciting tour of Egypt.
Your first stop will be the ancient city of Memphis, an important site in early Egyptian history. Once a major center for sculpture and craftsmanship, Memphis was home to skilled artisans who created some of the most iconic statues and monuments of the Old Kingdom. Today, you can explore its open-air museum, which features impressive artifacts, including a massive alabaster sphinx and fragments from grand temples that once stood in this bustling capital.
Next, you will travel to Dahshur, a quieter and less-visited pyramid field located south of Cairo. This site offers a unique view on the evolution of pyramid design. The Bent Pyramid showcases an early testing phase in pyramid construction, while the Red Pyramid represents an important advancement with its perfect angles and massive scale. Together, these monuments highlight the creativity and ambition of ancient Egyptian architects and provide a more intimate look at pyramid development than the more popular sites in Giza.
To end your journey, enjoy a peaceful Felucca ride on the Nile River. You will drift along the calm waters, taking in panoramic views of the Cairo skyline. This relaxing sailing experience is the perfect conclusion to a day filled with discovery, offering you a quiet moment to absorb the magic of Egypt.
After your cruise, you will be transferred back to your ship at Sokhna Port, completing one of the most unique and informative day trips from Sokhna to Cairo.
