Tour Itinerary

Pyramids Trip from Soma Bay

Your unforgettable Pyramids tour from Soma Bay will kick off as you leave your Soma Bay hotel and make your way to Hurghada airport. From there, you’ll board a flight to Cairo, where your expert tour guide will greet you upon arrival. Without delay, your exclusive day trip from Soma Bay to the Pyramids will commence, beginning with:

Giza Pyramids Complex

The enigmatic Giza Pyramids Complex is a testament to human achievement that defies the natural order, enduring for over 4500 years. It stands as a pristine showcase of the ancient Egyptians’ architectural prowess and comprises the three imposing pyramids, the Valley Temple, and the enigmatic Sphinx.

The Great Pyramid

In the prehistoric year of 2580 BC, an extraordinary feat of construction unfolded, reaching for the heavens. It was designed to serve as the eternal resting place of King Khufu. This marvel, the Great Pyramid, was masterminded by Khufu’s Vizer Heminuu, employing the labor of over 100,000 workers and a staggering 2.3 million limestone blocks, ultimately soaring to a height of 146.7 meters (481 feet). It remains the sole surviving wonder of the legendary Seven Wonders of the World.

The Great Sphinx

Standing majestically in front of the Great Pyramid of Khafre is one of the world’s oldest symbols and statues, the Sphinx. Spanning 19 meters (66 feet) in width and rising 73 meters (240 feet) in height, it boasts the regal physique of a lion coupled with the visage of a man, silently watching over the realm since the days of the Old Kingdom, if not earlier.

The Valley Temple

In ancient Egypt, during the zenith of the great civilization, the art of mummification was meticulously performed on the pharaohs of the Old Kingdom, preparing them for their journey into the afterlife.

Lunch Time

Following this enlightening exploration, you will savor a delicious lunch at a local restaurant in Cairo before continuing your exclusive day tour from Soma Bay to the Pyramids, visiting:

Saqqara Step Pyramid

The genesis of pyramid construction is attributed to Imhotep’s masterpiece, which set the stage for an era of remarkable architectural achievements. The Saqqara Step Pyramid was erected to serve as the final resting place of Pharaoh Djoser, boasting a unique six-step design and a towering height of 62 meters. This complex would later set the standard for future constructions, including the famed Great Pyramids complex.

Returne Journey

As the day draws to a close, you will return to Cairo airport, catching a flight to Hurghada and ultimately making your way back to your Soma Bay haven.
