Your personal, certified Egyptologist tour guide will collect you from your hotel in a private, modern A/C van (WiFi available on board).
Begin at 8am with a delightful breakfast of foul (warm fava beans served with garlic, onion, and cumin) and falafel (deep-fried patty made from ground fava beans, served in a pita with salads, pickles, and hot sauce).
Next, proceed to Saqqara to explore the step pyramid complex of King Zoser, the Pyramid of Unas, the Causeway of Unas, the Pyramid of Userkaf, the Pyramid of Teti, and the tomb of Kagemni.
Then, visit the museum of Memphis, the first capital of Egypt in 3200 B.C.
Afterwards, savor a wonderful lunch of Koshary, a mix of rice, macaroni, black lentils, tomato sauce, fried onion, and chickpeas.
Continue to the Giza plateau to see the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the Pyramid of Chephren, the Pyramid of Mycerinus, the panorama area, the Valley Temple, and the Great Sphinx.
Finally, enjoy a delicious dinner of Fitir, a layered pastry typically served with both salty and sweet sides. At the end of the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
