Giza Pyramids Complex:
The Giza Pyramids Complex, located on the Giza Plateau, was one of the first locations to witness the magnificence of the Pharaohs. It consists of six smaller pyramids in addition to the three main pyramids “Cheops/ Khufu,” “Chephren/ Khafre,” and “Menkaure.”
The Great Pyramid:
The Great Pyramid was built in the 4th dynasty (2589–2566 BCE) during the reign of King Khufu. At 146 m tall, it is one of the tallest man-made constructions ever built, making it one of the seven wonders of the world. It was used as King Khufu’s sacred burial site and is composed of almost 2 million stone blocks.
The Great Sphinx:
In fact, it’s one of the world’s most impressive carvings, dating back to the 4th dynasty. It has a lion’s body and a human head with King Chephren’s visage on it. Carving it from a large chunk of limestone took three years and 100 employees.
The Valley Temple:
The Giza Plateau, which was once developed as a centre for mummification, is where it actually is. The Valley Temple was constructed from large pieces of granite that had been cut by diorite.
After that, go to Pyramids or Nile View restaurant and then move to the following sites:
Saqqara Step Pyramid
It is believed to be the first significant cut stone structure and dates to the time of Egyptian King Djoser in the 27th century B.C. The step pyramid is 62 metres tall and is constructed of six steps placed on top of one another.
Memphis City
King Menes established the first capital in Egypt. It was strategically located between Upper and Lower Egypt. Memphis was said to be guarded by the deity Ptah, the god of creation and art.
We then transport you back to your hotel for the night.
Day Three: Fly to Aswan – Visit Aswan Top Highlights
Have breakfast at the hotel in Cairo. After that, check out before we take you to the airport to fly to Aswan. Then, your private tour guide will meet you and take you to the following Aswan tourist attractions:
The High Dam
In fact, the High Dam is located in Egypt’s extreme south and is around 3830 m in length and 111 m in height. Its construction was critical because it defended Egypt from the yearly Nile River floods, which flooded the farms and crops. As a result, it has had a significant beneficial impact on the Egyptian economy.
The Unfinished Obelisk
It is the largest obelisk ever carved in Ancient Egypt, weighing 1200 tons and measuring 42 meters in length. During the 18th dynasty, Queen Hatshepsut (1478 1458) erected it. Since then the monarchs began to build the obelisks alongside the temples for religious reasons. This unfinished obelisk demonstrates the Ancient Egyptians’ carving and sculpture skills.
Temple of Philae
In fact, it is the most impressive Nubian structure, created as a shrine to the goddess Isis. Before UNESCO salvaged it by relocating it from Philae Island to Agilika Island, the temple was in grave danger because to Nile floods. Pharaohs, Byzantines, Greeks, and Romans had all left their imprints on the temple’s stone.
Nile View Restaurant will provide lunch before transporting you to a five-star hotel where you can spend the night.
Day 4: Visit Abu Simbel

On the other hand, the temple, like other temples erected during this time period, was created for religious reasons. It was an important location for the worship of Thebes’ goddess and the god Amun.
Enjoy your lunch at a Nile-view restaurant before returning to your accommodation to recuperate before heading out in the evening to visit:
The Luxor Temple
Under the glorious lights of the sight, take an Egyptian evening tour amid the stunning ruins of the Pharaohs at Luxor Temple.

The Valley of the Monarchs was primarily built by the forefathers to serve as royal tombs for their kings. On the other hand, these subterranean tombs contained furniture, jewels, and jewelry that the deceased monarch would need in the afterlife.
Temple of Hatshepsut
The temple, which is recognised as one of Egypt’s most magnificent buildings, was built for Queen Hatshepsut during the 18th dynasty. The temple has a panoramic view and a lengthy road leading to the entrance. It had an important role in Ancient Egypt as a religious center for worship, and its walls are a magnificent depiction, with numerous paintings and sculptures depicting ordinary life in Ancient Egypt.
Memnon’s Colossi
In fact, western Luxor is home to two enormous gigantic statues of King Amenhotep III, who ruled during the 18th dynasty. Each monument weighs 720 tons and is 18 meters tall. The two sculptures depict a sitting monarch on a throne with figures of his wife, mother, and the deity Hapy.
