Travel back in time to the age of the pharaohs and discover how Egypt’s legendary pyramid story first began. Our journey starts in Saqqara, the ancient necropolis that holds the world’s very first pyramid, built by the brilliant architect Imhotep for King Djoser more than 4,000 years ago. As you wander through this historic site, you’ll see how the idea of pyramid construction was born — a vision that would later shape one of the greatest civilizations on earth.
From there, we’ll continue to Giza, where the iconic Great Pyramids rise majestically from the desert sands. Stand before these awe-inspiring wonders and gaze at the enigmatic Sphinx, guarding them for millennia.
Along the way, I’ll share local stories, fascinating legends, and simple insights that bring the stones to life — helping you imagine the hands that built them and the world they once knew.
Pick-up and drop-off from your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Meeting point can be adjusted upon request.
Start your day where it all began — at the world’s first stone pyramid. We’ll explore Saqqara’s Step Pyramid complex, learn about Imhotep’s genius design, and see how this place changed Egypt’s history forever.
Explore the breathtaking Giza Plateau — home of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, and the timeless Sphinx. We’ll walk through the stories of the pharaohs, enjoy the best panoramic view where all six pyramids line up perfectly, and capture stunning photos.
Taste authentic Egyptian food at a local hidden gem — if you’d like, I’ll take you to my favorite spot.
Drop-off at your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Flexible ending point if needed.
What an amazing day!
