Start your day with a convenient hotel pickup in Cairo, heading towards Giza, just 20 km away. Prepare to immerse yourself in Egypt's rich history as you visit iconic landmarks. In Giza, you'll spend three unforgettable hours exploring the world-renowned Sphinx and the three majestic pyramids built for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. These ancient marvels will leave you with memories that last a lifetime. Re-energized, your journey continues to the Saqqara necropolis, an essential site in ancient Egypt's history. Here, you'll witness the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the first of its kind, and delve deeper into Egypt's past. Saqqara is also home to the tomb of Vizier Mehu, recently opened to the public for the first time since its discovery in the 1940s.
