Day Trip: El Gouna to the Pyramids by Plane

We will transfer you from your hotel in El Gouna to Hurghada airport for a flight to Cairo. Upon arrival, you will meet your private tour guide to begin your day trip.

Giza Pyramids Complex

The Giza Pyramids complex is a place of divinity and cosmic glory. The ancient Egyptians built the Giza pyramids during the Old Kingdom (2686–2134 BC) to showcase the brilliance and strong will of the ancient Egyptians.

The Great Pyramid

King Khufu (2609–2584 BC) made the Great Pyramid of Giza to serve as a path to the heavens. His royal vizier, Hemiunu, designed it to be 147 meters tall. It was built using 2.3 million limestone blocks and contains the Queen’s chamber, the King’s chamber, the grand hall, and more.

The Great Sphinx

The Great Sphinx, known as Horus of the Horizon, is an immortal work of art. It honors the power and wisdom of Pharaoh Khafre, who ruled Egypt from 2558 BC to 2532 BC.

The Valley Temple

The Valley Temple is a work of art and divinity. It was made to honor the ancient gods of Egypt by performing the mummification ritual on the royal family of the 4th dynasty. This ritual allowed them to join their rightful place with the gods.

Lunch and Further Exploration

Lunch will be served at a local restaurant in Cairo. You will then continue your tour by visiting:

Saqqara Step Pyramid

The Saqqara Step Pyramid is a legendary construction. With six steps and a height of 62 meters, it is famous for being the oldest and largest large-scale cut-stone construction. It was built during the reign of King Djoser.

Memphis City

King Menes built the epic Memphis City in the early 31st century BC. It was the first unified capital of Egypt, under the divine protection of the god of creations, Ptah.
