Visit the ancient capital of Memphis, where the colossal statue of Rameses II and a great alabaster sphinx stand. Proceed to Sakkara, the step pyramid built for Pharaoh Zoser and the oldest limestone structure in the world. Visit Pyramids of Giza, the oldest and only site in existence amongst the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World. Marvel at the largest pyramid, the Great Pyramid of Cheops and the Pyramids of Chephren and Mycerinus. The 3 pyramids represent the link between heaven and earth and were directed at Horus, who was the ancient Egyptian God of the world. Just down the escarpment from the pyramids, you will come face to face with the enigmatic Sphinx. Conclude your visit to the pyramids with a fun camel ride before you transfer to visit Khan Al Khalili, the largest bazaar in the Middle East with more than 4,000 stalls. You can shop for excellent handicrafts and even try Egyptian coffee and shisha, a traditional flavoured tobacco at your own expense.

Today, drive north to Alexandria, known as Pearl of the Mediterranean. Strategically located by the Mediterranean Sea, it is the largest port in Egypt and the greatest summer resort in the Middle East. Upon arrival, proceed to sightsee at places of interest such as Catacombs and Pompey’s Pillars, Montazah Palace Gardens and a photo stop at Morsi Abu Abas Mosque. Enjoy a leisure stroll along the shore of the eastern harbour that overlooks the Mediterranean. On your way back to Cairo, visit Qait Bay Fort which was built in the 15th century. The fort was built on the site of Alexandria’s ancient lighthouse, one of the 7 wonders of the ancient World, which was destroyed by earthquake. Transfer to Cairo for your overnight stay.
