Itinerary

Admission not included120 min

Begin your journey at the legendary Giza Plateau, home to Egypt’s most iconic landmarks—the Great Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. Stand face-to-face with these timeless wonders and learn about the techniques that shaped them over 4,500 years ago. Your guide will also take you to the panoramic viewpoint for stunning photos and to the mysterious Great Sphinx that guards the tombs of kings.

120 min

Continue to Dahshur, a quieter archaeological site that feels like a step back in time. Here you’ll find the Red Pyramid, Egypt’s first true smooth-sided pyramid, and the unique Bent Pyramid, with its unusual angles that show how ancient engineers perfected their craft. Visitors can even venture inside the Red Pyramid for a closer look at its impressive inner chambers.

Admission not included240 min

Travel further south to discover Saqqara and Memphis, where Egypt’s civilization truly began. In Saqqara, explore the Step Pyramid of King Djoser—the earliest stone structure in history—and the surrounding tombs covered in vivid hieroglyphs that tell stories of daily life and devotion. A short drive away lies Memphis, Egypt’s ancient capital, now an open-air museum showcasing colossal statues of Ramses II and the elegant alabaster sphinx. Together, these sites reveal the origins of royal architecture and the grandeur that shaped the pharaonic world.
