Embark on a timeless journey with Egypt Trip Hub, where our expert guide will whisk you away from your hotel to the awe-inspiring Giza Pyramids Complex, home to three of the most iconic pyramids: the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure. Built during the Fourth Dynasty around 2600 BCE, these monumental tombs for the pharaohs stand as enduring symbols of ancient Egyptian grandeur. The complex also features the Great Sphinx, a massive limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, believed to represent Khafre. The Great Pyramid, also known as the Pyramid of Khufu or Cheops, is the largest and oldest of the trio, originally standing at 481 feet tall and reigning as the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. It showcases the astonishing architectural prowess of ancient Egypt and remains one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Nearby, the Great Sphinx of Chephren, carved during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre around 2500 BCE, measures about 240 feet in length and 66 feet in height and stands as one of the most iconic symbols of Egypt. You'll also explore the Valley Temple, constructed around 2500 BCE for Pharaoh Khafre, renowned for its impressive use of massive limestone blocks and granite pillars used in mummification and ceremonial purification. Continue your adventure to the Saqqara Step Pyramid, the earliest large-scale stone construction built for King Djoser, rising in six majestic steps to a height of 62 meters and marking the dawn of pyramid-building in ancient Egypt. Afterward, enjoy a delightful lunch at a local restaurant in Cairo before continuing your full-day tour to Memphis, Sakkara, and Dahshur. In Memphis, Egypt’s ancient capital founded around 3100 BCE, discover remnants of its glory including a colossal statue of Ramses II and the Alabaster Sphinx. Then explore the Dahshur Pyramids, home to the Bent Pyramid with its unique angled shape and the Red Pyramid, the first successful smooth-sided pyramid built by Pharaoh Snefru—both pivotal in the evolution of pyramid architecture. Book with us for an unparalleled exploration of Egypt’s ancient wonders, where every step is a story and every monument a memory etched in stone. With Egypt Trip Hub, your journey into the heart of history begins. Finally, we drive you back to your hotel in Cairo.
