Explore the Pyramids, Saqqara, and Memphis from Cairo
Your exclusive Egypt day tour begins with a complimentary pickup from your accommodation in Cairo or Giza. Traveling in the comfort of a private, air-conditioned vehicle, you will head straight to your first and most iconic stop of the day: the world-famous Giza Plateau.
You will kick off your morning by marveling at the awe-inspiring Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. Next, you will stand before the Great Sphinx, the legendary guardian dating back to the reign of Pharaoh Khafre, and tour the historic Valley Temple. After capturing unforgettable photos at Giza, you will head to a local restaurant right next to the pyramids area to enjoy a delicious, authentic lunch.
Following lunch, your private driver will take you on a short drive to the historic Sakkara archaeological site to discover the Step Pyramid of Djoser. Built during the 3rd Dynasty, this incredible monument stands as the world's oldest major stone structure. You will then conclude your historic journey in Memphis, founded by King Menes. As the first capital of Egypt during the Old Kingdom, Memphis served as the epicenter of rule and culture for over 3,000 years. Here, you will see the colossal Statue of Ramses II and the beautiful Alabaster Sphinx. At the end of an incredible day of exploration, your private driver will transfer you comfortably back to your hotel.
