Enjoy your breakfast before starting your guided tour to visit one of the Seven Wonders of the world, the Great Pyramids of Giza. Your Egyptologist guide will escort you around the pyramid complex and brief you on thousands of years of history.

The largest, the Pyramid of Khufu — also known as the Great Pyramid — was originally covered in gleaming white limestone casing stones and stood at 146 metres tall, making it the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years.

Next, visit the Great Sphinx. This mythical creature has the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, and stands tall guarding the Giza Plateau in Egypt.

Saqqara Necropolis with Serapeum

Saqqara

Built around 2600 BC,  Saqqara is an ancient burial ground located near Memphis, the capital of ancient Egypt.

This remarkable complex includes the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the Hypostyle Hall and the many tombs which we will visit. You’ll also see plenty of hieroglyphics that adorn the walls of the complex throughout.

The Serapeum of Saqqara is a deeply evocative site that offers a unique spiritual experience for visitors. It was the burial ground of the Apis bulls, considered sacred animals in ancient Egyptian religion. From a spiritual perspective, a visit to the Serapeum can provide profound insights into the ancient Egyptians' view of the divine, the afterlife, and the interconnectedness of all life.

The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), located just outside Cairo near the Giza Pyramids, is the world’s largest archaeological museum dedicated to a single civilization. 

The GEM is already making waves for its striking modern design and the scale of its collection—over 100,000 ancient Egyptian artifacts, many of which have never been displayed before.

 Its crown jewel is the complete collection of treasures from King Tutankhamun’s tomb, displayed together for the first time in one place.

Citadel of Saladin
