Pass By: Pyramids of Giza, Al Haram Str., Giza 12611 Egypt
In the early morning we will pick you up at the hotel to get on our way to Giza, a city located 20 kilometers from Cairo. Once in Giza we will have three hours to enjoy a panorama that will be recorded forever in your memory. This is where the Great Sphinx of Giza is located and the three largest and most famous pyramids in the country, erected for the Pharaohs Cheops, Chephren and Micerinos. At lunchtime we will stop to enjoy a typical menu that includes, among others, delicious grilled chicken skewers with vegetables, hummus, tahini and Arabic bread. For dessert, cakes or fruits. With the forces recovered we will go to the Saqqara necropolis, where, among other things, you can see the pyramid of Pharaoh Zoser, the first of the pyramids that were built in Egypt. In Saqqara we will also visit the tomb of chaty (Chancellor) Mehu, recently opened to the public for the first time since its discovery in 1940. This senior official of the sixth dynasty was honorably buried in a place that was unnoticed by tomb raiders. That made the hieroglyphs that decorate it were in an exceptional state of conservation. Our last stop will be Memphis, the first capital of Ancient Egypt, an authentic open-air museum where you can see, among other monuments, the impressive sculpture of the Colossus of Ramses II and the superb Alabaster Sphinx. The experience ends at your hotel. .
