Itinerary
At 8:00 AM, your expert guide will collect you from your hotel, commencing your exploration of the iconic Giza pyramids, a testament to human ingenuity and one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
Be awestruck by the grandeur of the three pyramids of Kings Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure, standing guard over the enigmatic rock-cut statue of the Sphinx.
Continue your journey to Saqqara, home to the step pyramid of King Djoser, considered the first pyramid in Egypt. Constructed during the Third Dynasty around 2600 BC, this remarkable structure stands as a testament to early architectural innovation.
Next, travel to Dahshur, approximately 10 kilometers south of Saqqara, where you'll encounter some of the oldest and best-preserved pyramids, including the unique Bent Pyramid. This second funerary monument of King Senefru's complex, after the Meidum Pyramid, is a fascinating example of architectural evolution.
Following your enriching tour, you will be comfortably transported back to your hotel.
