- The Great Pyramids Tour - Begins at 8:00 am with a pickup from your hotel in either Cairo or Giza by a WOW travel guide to start your full-day tour of Giza. Visit the Giza Pyramids, including the Great Pyramids of Giza - Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinos. Then, visit the Valley Temple, where priests mummified the body of King Chephren, the owner of the second pyramid at Giza Plateau. This is also where you can get a close-up view of the Sphinx, the legendary guardian with a lion’s body and the head of King Chephren, standing by the massive funeral complex.
- Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Continue your tour to Sakkara, located just 27 km southwest of Cairo. Visit the Step Pyramid, built for King Zoser, which is a significant part of the pyramid’s evolution from a simple mastaba to its well-known form.
- Memphis and Sakkara - Proceed to “Memphis City,” the ancient capital of Egypt, where you can see the colossal statue of Ramses II and the great Alabaster Sphinx. This city dates back to 3100 B.C.
- The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - Next, visit the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, also known as the Egyptian Museum or the Museum of Cairo. Located in the heart of Cairo, it houses an unparalleled collection of ancient Egyptian treasures. The museum features over 120,000 artifacts, with many on display and others carefully stored. Established in 1901, the grand building was designed by the French architect Marcel Dourgnon and built by the Italian firm Garozzo-Zaffarani. It is one of the largest and most significant museums in the region. As of March 2019, the museum remains open to visitors, although it is set to be succeeded by the new Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza, expected to open in 2021.
- Khan Al-Khalili - Finally, visit the famous Khan el-Khalili Bazaar in the historic heart of Cairo. Established during the Mamluk era as a central trade hub and named after one of the many historic caravanserais in the area, Khan el-Khalili is now one of Cairo’s most popular attractions for both tourists and locals. The bazaar is home to numerous Egyptian artisans and workshops, where traditional crafts and souvenirs are made, preserving the region’s rich cultural heritage.
