Tour Description

Our Valley the Kings private qualified Egyptologist guide will pick you up at 8:00 AM from your hotel in Cairo by A/C vehicle to visit the amazing Giza Pyramids, one of the 7 wonders of the world: the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus. Then, visit the majestic Sphinx, which has the head of a pharaoh and a lion's body, dating back to the time of Chephren. You will also visit the Valley Temple, which belongs to the Pyramids of Chephren.

Next, we journey south to visit the Red Pyramid and Bent Pyramid at Dahshur. Dahshur is a famous royal necropolis in Egypt, which holds many renowned pyramids, including the Red and Bent Pyramids of King Sneferu. The Bent Pyramid was the first to be built and is called "Bent" due to a building flaw that made the weight too heavy for the structure. Therefore, he built the Red Pyramid, named for its reddish hue after rainfall.

We then proceed to visit Saqqara, which is also spelled Sakkara or Saccara. This is home to the world-famous Step Pyramid of Djoser, the oldest major stone structure in the world. After this, we will break for lunch before being driven back safely and comfortably to your hotel.
