• Soma Bay - Start your day with a smooth transfer from Somabay to Cairo, enjoying the picturesque views along the route.
• The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - Established by Muhammad Ali Pasha in 1835 near El-Ezbekia Garden to prevent the export of artifacts, Egypt’s first antiquities museum later relocated to the Citadel. In 1854, most of the collection was gifted to Austria’s Archduke Maximilian and is now part of Vienna’s Kunsthistorisches Museum.
• Giza Necropolis - The Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx are among the most renowned ancient sites globally, constructed as tombs for 4th Dynasty kings. The Great Pyramid, built for Khufu, is the oldest and largest, maintaining its height supremacy for nearly 4,000 years.

Each pyramid was part of a larger complex, including smaller queens’ pyramids, satellite pyramids, tombs for nobles, symbolic boat burials, and two temples connected by a decorated causeway. These temples served religious purposes, where priests performed rituals and offerings to ensure the king’s peaceful afterlife.

• Great Sphinx of Giza - Carved from bedrock during the 4th Dynasty, the Great Sphinx of Giza is one of ancient Egypt’s most iconic statues. Likely constructed under King Khafre, it symbolizes royal power with a lion’s body and a human head. The Sphinx is located near Khafre’s temples and causeway, sharing features with his statues.

Over time, the Sphinx became associated with the sun god and was called Horemakhet (“Horus in the Horizon”). Pharaohs Amenhotep II and Thutmose IV honored it, with the latter erecting the famous Dream Stela between its paws, recording a legendary event.

• Queen of Egypt Papyrus - This 19.37-meter long papyrus, complete and well-preserved, was discovered in the tomb of Yuya and Tuya. It contains the “Book of the Dead” written in cursive hieroglyphs. The Book of the Dead, originally named Book of Coming Forth by Day, is a series of around 190 chapters containing magical and ritual spells, illustrated with drawings, intended to help the deceased survive in the Underworld. The texts of this papyrus, running from left to right, are illustrated by scenes from funerary rituals and mortuary cults like the worship of Osiris and the funeral procession.
