Camel Rides at the Pyramids of Giza
Upon arrival in Giza, the first glimpse of those colossal Pyramids rising from the desert sands is sure to leave you awe-struck. What better way to take in the dramatic setting than with an exhilarating camel ride? Feel the sun-baked sands shift underfoot as these ships of the desert amble past graffiti-covered stones of legends. Your private escort will help arrange two rides for adventurous passengers. Snap away memorable photos while our certified guides answer questions and share rich histories.
Valley Temple and the Embodied Sphinx
After exploring Giza Plateau by foot, the tour continues down into its plains. At the concealed Valley Temple near the Sphinx, admire its towering columns and hieroglyphic-stamped ceilings. Then gasp in wonder at the human-headed Sphinx – revered guardian since antiquity. Legend recounts its body was coaxed from solid bedrock by hand. Now it watches ceaselessly as Egypt’s national emblem. Your Egyptologist ensures these thought-provoking exhibits inspire a new appreciation.
Lunch in Cairo and History-Steeped Sakkara
Before heading south, satisfy your hunger at an eatery at the city’s edge specializing in home-style cuisine. Fuelled and recharged, follow millennia of pharaohs’ sacred progression by driving to Sakkara necropolis. As the capital of Egypt during the early dynasties, here in Zoser’s Step Pyramid chambers you find humanity’s oldest surviving monumental stone structure and first pyramid. Adjacent Mastaba tombs disclose intriguingly elaborate burial customs in place long before the Giza Plateau came into play. These profound legacies reveal origins of dynastic Egypt.
Return to Port Said with Treasured Souvenirs
Time permitting on the fast-paced voyage, we make a scheduled break at a craft outlet so you can part with memorable gifts and handicrafts directly from their makers.
