Giza Pyramids Complex: To preserve the indestructible legacy of the great monarchs of ancient Egypt, the heavenly sky that is seen above the Giza Pyramids grew from the Giza Plateau during the old dynasty (2686–2134 BC).

The Great Pyramid: The huge pyramid of Giza was erected to reach the heavens in King Khufu’s (2609 BC – 2584 BC) eternal marvel. Hemiunu, the royal principal vizier of Kufu, designed it with 2.3 million limestone pieces weighing a total of 6 million tonnes, giving it an overall height of 147 meters. The Queen’s chamber, the King’s chamber, the enormous gap, the grand hall, and several more rooms may be found in the great pyramid’s main chamber.

The Great Sphinx: The soul of Pharaoh Khafre is kept inside the enormous Sphinx, also known as Horus of the Horizon, an eternal emblem of strength and knowledge (2558 BC – 2532 BC). It kept vigil over the timeless marvels of ancient Egypt. The epic dream Steele of Thutmose IV, which was added about 1401 BC, is shown between the legs of the sphinx.

The Valley Temple: To undertake religious rituals, such as the Mummification rite, to pass through the gate of heaven, the magnificent Valley Temple was built. In this enormous temple, funeral rites for every member of the 4th dynasty were planned.

After a leisurely lunch at a neighborhood eatery, go with your tour guide to:

Step Pyramid of Saqqara: The Primal Saqqara Step Pyramid is a remarkable structure that marked the beginning of the golden age of pyramid building. During the time of King Djoser, it was planned by the internationally renowned architect Imhotep to have six steps towering at a height of 62 meters (2649 BC – 2611 BC).

Transfer lastly to a 5-star hotel in Cairo for the night.

Food: Lunch

Hotel in Cairo overnight accommodation

Day 2: A day trip to Old Cairo: After breakfast, check out and accompany your tour guide to explore the following Cairo tourist attractions:

The Egyptian Museum: To conserve and showcase the most magnificent collection of historic relics and monuments ever produced in the history of ancient Egypt, the Egyptian Museum—a golden treasure house—was built in the epic city of Cairo in 1901 AD.

In Cairo, lunch will be provided in a neighborhood eatery before visiting:

Citadel of Salah El Din: The formidable Cairo Citadel was built between 1176 and 1182 AD and is a spectacular castle perched on Cairo’s highest point with a panoramic view of the city. It is crammed with several magnificent pieces of art and architectural wonders like mosques and enchanting museums.

Mosque of Mohamed Ali: The magnificent “Alabaster Mosque” was built within the great fortress of Cairo between the years 1830 and 1848 AD. Its walls are composed entirely of pure alabaster that was taken right from the great pyramids of Giza. This mosque is a prime example of Ottoman architecture today.

The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization: The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) reopened to the public in 2020 after undergoing renovations to house and exhibit some of the oldest and most magical artifacts and monuments. The imposing museum also houses the Hall of mummies, which contains the remains of 28 royal kings and queens from the long history of ancient Egypt.

Al Muizz Street: In the 10th century AD, in the center of the enchanted city of marvels and minarets, near to the captivating Khan El Khalili market, the golden history of the Islamic era came into existence. The heavenly cultural street of Al-Muizz will throw light on this history. This amazing area is teeming with lively eateries and genuine cultural events.

Market in Khan El Khalili: Khan El-Khalili, a street of gold and gifts was built between 1382 and 1389 AD to provide the most incredible and unforgettable opportunity to engage in the most magical and memorable shopping experience, looks and feels like it is straight out of a history book, showcasing the divine and timeless treasures of ancient Egypt.

Then, return to Sokhna Port to catch your ship.

Amazing tour to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur

January 1, 2025

This week we had a great tour with Mohamed to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur as well as Memphis. He tailored the tour to our preferences, took a lot of time with us and gave us detailed background information on everything. It was also great that he never tired of taking the time to answer our many questions.

You can definitely tell that he has studied Egyptology as he has a very deep understanding of the subject and can explain everything well. He also speaks perfect English and is really good driver.

We would definitely book a tour with him again in a heartbeat and would recommend him to anyone. 🙂

Amazing Egypt Fun Tours

Highly Recommend Egypt Fun Tours!

Several weeks ago, I reached out to Egypt Fun Tours regarding a 9-hour layover in Cairo. From the very beginning, Hani Ahmed was responsive and professional, quickly providing a well-organized itinerary tailored to our limited time. The itinerary included a visit to the pyramids, other historical sites, a delicious dinner, and even a quick stop for souvenir shopping.

Upon arrival, Gilman efficiently assisted us in obtaining our day tourist visas (note: $25 per person in cash). She then introduced us to our guide, Mydo, who was absolutely phenomenal! Mydo’s knowledge, friendly demeanor, and ability to adjust the tour to our pace made the experience unforgettable.

We returned to the airport with plenty of time to relax before our flight. The entire experience was smooth, stress-free, and incredibly memorable. Egypt Fun Tours offers reasonable prices for a private, customized experience that truly exceeds expectations. Thank you, Egypt Fun Tours! We will definitely use your services again in the future.

Alexandria! Wow!

November 7, 2024

Muhammad is the best! He showed me a world I never thought possible! The tombs in Alexandria by far was my favorite! I never knew there was a place on earth that contained both Greek and Egyptian carvings in the same tombs! The history and culture of Egypt is so fascinating! I highly recommend booking with Muhammad!
