Day 2: A tour of Memphis, Saqqara, and the Pyramids: After breakfast, you will meet your Egyptologist tour guide to begin your 12-day trip to Egypt at one of Giza’s fabled wonders:

Giza Pyramids Complex: The Sphinx, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, is housed inside the Giza Pyramids complex, a living marvel that was created during the 4th dynasty about 2400 B.C.

The Great Pyramid: The funerary burial tomb of “King Khufuit” is the Great Pyramid of Giza, which is also by far the highest building in all of Egypt. With the aid of 2.3 million limestones, the height of the huge pyramid reaches 147 meters. There are several amazing rooms in the interior, including the Grand Hall and the chambers for the Kings and Queens.

The Great Sphinx: The Great Sphinx is the representation of an ancient monster made from a single piece of limestone that has the body of a lion and the characteristics of Pharaoh Khafre on its face. Its dimensions are 73 meters long, 19 meters wide, and 20 meters high, making it one of the largest and oldest man-made monuments in the world.

The Valley Temple: The Valley Temple, a large granite structure used by ancient Egyptian pharaohs for mummification, is still the only one of its sort to be discovered on the Giza plateau.

After having lunch with a view of the Pyramids or the Nile, go on to:

Step Pyramid of Saqqara: The Saqqara Step Pyramid, which dates to the time of Pharaoh Djoser, who ruled Egypt in the 27th century B.C., is the earliest of its sort and the first mastaba “Cut-stone” Pyramid. Imhotep planned it to be made up of six steps that are stacked on top of one another and are 62 meters tall.

City of Memphis: King Menes established Memphis City as Egypt’s first known capital. The word Egypt is derived from the Greek term Aigyptos for it. Memphis was created to be under the guardianship of Ptah, the god of creation and art.

Day 3: City tour of Alexandria: Following breakfast, you will go with your tour guide to some of Alexandria’s treasures, including:

Kom El Shoqafa’s catacombs: The Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa can fuse architectural styles from the ancient Egyptian civilization with artistic aspects from the Hellenistic and Roman eras. A three-story mausoleum for a single family was constructed in the second century.

Pompey’s Pillar: Pompey’s Pillar, the only monolithic column ever constructed outside of Rome, is 28 meters tall and 2.7 meters wide. It is composed completely of red granite and has a Greek inscription honoring Emperor Diocletian on its western top side.

One of the primary deities who created and oversaw the cosmos is the goddess Neith of Sais, whose shrine is located there. Before the fabled Trojan War and the heroic Heracles, Paris, and Helen of Troy visited the city, which was also known by its Egyptian and Greek names.
