Start Your Journey with a Convenient Transfer

Your unforgettable adventure begins with a private transfer from your hotel in Marsa Alam to Hurghada International Airport. After checking in, enjoy a comfortable and scenic flight to Cairo. During your short flight, take in Egypt’s vast desert landscapes and get ready to immerse yourself in the wonders of ancient civilization.

Upon arrival at Cairo International Airport, you will be greeted by your private Egyptologist guide, who will accompany you throughout the day. Together, you’ll embark on an unforgettable exploration of Memphis and Saqqara, two of Egypt’s most iconic and historically significant sites.

Memphis – The Ancient Capital of Egypt

Your journey begins in Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt during the Old Kingdom. Founded by the legendary Pharaoh Narmer, Memphis was once the political and cultural hub of ancient Egypt. Today, it offers a fascinating glimpse into Egypt’s past.

Here, you’ll visit the Colossus of Ramses II, an awe-inspiring 40-foot statue that once adorned the great temple dedicated to Ramses II. Standing before this imposing figure, you’ll feel the immense power and significance of one of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs. Your guide will share fascinating details about Ramses II’s reign and his architectural achievements.

Explore the open-air museum in Memphis, where you’ll also see smaller statues, sarcophagi, and a wealth of archaeological relics. The area provides a deep insight into the daily life and religious practices of ancient Egyptians.

Saqqara – The Necropolis of the Old Kingdom

Next, your tour takes you to Saqqara, one of Egypt’s most significant burial grounds, located just outside Cairo. Saqqara served as the necropolis for the ancient city of Memphis and is home to the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the oldest large-scale stone structure in the world.

The Step Pyramid, designed by the brilliant architect Imhotep, marks a groundbreaking achievement in Egyptian architecture. Unlike the smooth-sided pyramids that followed, this pyramid is built in six stepped layers, symbolizing the pharaoh’s ascent to the heavens. As you stand before this awe-inspiring structure, you’ll learn about the early development of pyramid construction techniques.

Explore the tombs and temples that surround the pyramid. The intricate wall carvings and hieroglyphs offer a vivid portrayal of life in ancient Egypt, with scenes depicting gods, royal figures, and the daily activities of the time.

Lunch at a Traditional Egyptian Restaurant

After an enriching morning of exploration, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant in Cairo. Savor a variety of authentic Egyptian dishes such as koshari (a hearty mix of rice, lentils, pasta, and tomato sauce), falafel, fool medames (stewed fava beans), and baklava for dessert. This meal will give you a taste of Egypt’s rich culinary culture, preparing you for the rest of your journey.

Egyptian Museum – Treasures of Ancient Egypt

In the afternoon, your journey continues with a visit to the world-renowned Egyptian Museum, located in the heart of Cairo. The museum is home to a vast collection of over 120,000 artifacts, offering a deep dive into the history, culture, and beliefs of ancient Egypt.

The highlight of your visit will be the Treasures of Tutankhamun, including the iconic Golden Mask of Tutankhamun, jewelry, and the breathtaking collection of artifacts found in his tomb. Your guide will provide fascinating insights into the life of this young pharaoh and the mysterious discovery of his tomb in 1922.

You’ll also explore the Royal Mummies Hall, where you can view the mummified remains of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs, including Ramses II, Seti I, and Queen Hatshepsut. These ancient rulers have left an indelible mark on Egypt’s history, and their preserved remains offer a direct connection to the distant past.

Return Flight to Hurghada & transfer to Marsa Alam

After a day filled with history, culture, and breathtaking sights, you’ll be escorted back to Cairo International Airport for your return flight to Hurghada. As you soar over the Egyptian landscape, take a moment to reflect on the remarkable treasures you’ve witnessed throughout the day.

Upon landing in Hurghada, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel in Marsa Alam , bringing with you a wealth of memories and a deeper understanding of Egypt’s timeless legacy.
