Day 1: Arrival – Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis

Welcome to Cairo.

Upon arrival at Cairo International Airport, your WOW TOURS EGYPT representative will meet and assist you with arrival procedures before introducing you to your private Egyptologist guide.

Your first day traces the remarkable evolution of Egypt’s pyramids, from the Step Pyramid of Saqqara to the Great Pyramids of Giza. Begin at Saqqara, here stands the revolutionary Step Pyramid of Djoser, designed more than 4,600 years ago by the architect Imhotep. Its distinctive six levels represent a turning point in Egyptian architecture — visit beautifully decorated tombs of high-ranking nobles, and see the nearby Pyramid of King Teti, where the evolution of pyramid building continued to unfold. Together, these remarkable monuments reveal why Saqqara remains one of Egypt’s richest and most fascinating archaeological treasures.

Your exploration continues at Memphis, its open-air museum preserves impressive masterpieces, including the colossal statue of Ramesses II and the elegant Alabaster Sphinx, offering a fascinating glimpse into Egypt’s earliest royal capital.

After lunch at a local restaurant, arrive at the Giza Plateau for the defining experience of the day.

Standing above the desert are the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, built more than 4,500 years ago and dominated by the Great Pyramid—the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. At the Valley Temple of Khafre, discover the rituals associated with royal burial before meeting the plateau’s legendary guardian, the Great Sphinx, with the body of a lion and the face of a king.

At the end of your sightseeing, transfer to your hotel in Cairo.
