Overnight in Cairo
After breakfast, you're going to the Giza pyramids.
Your journey will take you to view a number of noteworthy buildings, such as the Great Pyramid of Cheops, which was constructed by Snefru's son and was created before the lesser Second Pyramid of Chephren existed. You'll also get to see the tiniest royal pyramid in Giza, built for King Mycerinus. Next, your knowledgeable tour guide will give you a little history of the Sphinx before taking you to the Valley Temple, which is also referred to as King Chephren's mummification temple. Utilizing granite from Aswan quarries, this temple was constructed and finished with white alabaster. In the 4th Dynasty, Khufu's son Chephren took over as emperor.
After that, you will be driven by your own driver and tour guide to the Egyptian Museum, where you may marvel at Tutankhamun's riches.
When you take a break from your meal, you can take advantage of the Coptic Cairo tour, which takes you to see a number of historic synagogues and churches. The journey begins with the hanging church, which symbolizes Christianity's triumph over pagan beliefs and was built above the ruins of an old Roman castle in Babylon. The Ben Ezra synagogue, the earliest Jewish temple in Egypt, and the church of the holy family, where they briefly resided during their voyage to Egypt, will also be visible.
