Giza Day Trip: Sphinx, Pyramids, Saqqara and Memphis
Details & Information
The most important tour you will ever take, Stand in front of the Great Pyramid of Khufu and learn of the great mysteries of Ancient Egypt from your guide, Walk on the soft sand of the Sahara to take the best pictures of your life. After Giza, visit Saqqara and go inside the Pyramid of King Unas to see its incredible carvings. Lastly, visit the site of Memphis, the capitol of Ancient Egypt’s Old Kingdom and visit one of the largest depictions of Ramesses the Great still intact.
Step back in time to the days of ancient Egypt on a tour of the Great Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx, the necropolis of Sakkara and the former capital, Memphis. With your own Egyptologist guide to lead the way on this tour, you can determine the amount of time you’d like to spend at each of the sites you’ll visit.
The Giza Plateau is only around 30 minutes from Cairo, where your qualified Egyptologist guide will provide a fascinating introduction to each of the three pyramids: Cheops, Khafre and Menakaure.
You will have free time to enter one of the pyramids (optional), though your guide is not permitted to enter with you or take a camel ride (optional). After visiting the pyramids, you’ll continue across the plateau for a photo opportunity of the three pyramids rising from the sands, with the Cairo skyline in the background.
A short drive to the city side of the plateau finds you standing at the feet of the Sphinx, for thousands of years the enigmatic symbol of Egypt.
Also in Giza, you may visit the Solar Boat Museum (optional), home to the remarkably well-preserved funerary boat of Khufu. after that you will head to Sakkara, home of Egypt’s oldest pyramid, built-in 2800 B.C.
