Itinerář
Day 1: From Alexandria Port: Pathfinding Pyramids & Ancient Capital
Your private Egypt Tours Portal representative will greet you directly at your cruise ship's gangway in Alexandria Port. Settle into our comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle for a scenic drive southeast towards the venerable sites awaiting just outside Cairo. Our journey into ancient history begins with the groundbreaking necropolis of Saqqara. Here stands the magnificent Step Pyramid of King Djoser, a revolutionary design by his brilliant vizier Imhotep. Dating from approximately 2649–2611 BC, this towering six-tiered monument, reaching 62 meters, represents the very first large-scale stone building on Earth, forever altering architecture.

Day Continued: Memphis, Cradle of Civilization & Dahshur's Pioneering Pyramids
Our journey continues to the legendary city of Memphis. Established during the Old Kingdom (2686–2134 BC), Memphis served as ancient Egypt's capital for over three millennia, a vibrant epicenter of administration, artistry, knowledge, and spiritual life, safeguarded by the divine patron of creation, Ptah. Once the world's largest metropolis until about 2250 BC, its remnants still whisper tales of its past grandeur. Following a delightful lunch at a local eatery, we venture onward to Dahshur, located some 40 kilometers southwest of Cairo. This significant necropolis is home to the monumental pyramids of King Sneferu (2613–2589 BC), father of Khufu. Here you'll discover the unique Bent Pyramid, a fascinating testament to early pyramid-building challenges, and its later, perfectly proportioned successor, the Red Pyramid – a true precursor to the Giza pyramids. As the day draws to a close, we'll ensure your timely return to Alexandria Port to rejoin your cruise ship.
