Cairo Layover Trips from Cairo Airport
Overview
Cairo Top Tours is one of the most preferred companies in Egypt. You can find any tour you are looking for, and through us, you can enjoy every moment of your holiday. We organize everything in detail just to satisfy your wishes perfectly.
This stopover tour from the airport offers you a one-of-a-kind opportunity to see the vicinity of the pyramids, including the Great Pyramid of King Khufu, if you are at the airport and want to make an unforgettable excursion that will always remind you of Egypt. Queen Hetep Haras I was his mother, and King Khufu succeeded his father, Sneferu. Khufu's short name is "Khnum Khu Af Oyu," which translates to "Khnum is the one who protects me." His rule began around 2650 BC. Khufu is credited with creating the Great Pyramid of Giza, the biggest building on Earth, and being the sole surviving member of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
Then you can see the pyramid complex of Khafre, where you will have the opportunity to see the Valley Temple, the Temple of the Sphinx, a corridor, a funerary temple, and the Pyramid of the King. In the Valley Temple, many of the statues of Khafre were discovered, many of which were found by the archaeologist Mariette in a pit on the floor of the temple in 1860. Additional statues were found during the excavations of Sigalin (1909-1910), Jonker, Reisner, and Hassan. The Khafre complex also included five boat pits, as well as a sub-pyramid with a crypt.
After visiting the two pyramids, we go to the third one, which is called the Pyramid of Menkaure, which is classified as one of the four main monuments of the complex of the Pyramids of Giza. The current Mankauraa is the only one that does not retain any of its original shell of polished limestone.
Then, we will explore another famous tourist spot in Cairo, the city of Saqqara. Since the First and Second Egyptian Dynasties, some Egyptian nobles started to build their tombs in Saqqara. One of the first royal structures built in Saqqara was a mastaba built during the reign of King Kha-Sakhmuwi, the last king of the Second Dynasty, which is now known as the Director's Bridge. The construction of mastabas and pyramids in Saqqara continued during the Dynasties

Itinerary
Your layover trip in the real capital will begin when you land at Cairo airport, where one of our representatives will be waiting for you with a qualified guide.
Your excursion begins with an unforgettable visit to see the area of the pyramids, starting with a visit to the Great Pyramid of King Khufu. Queen Hetep Haras I was his mother, and King Khufu assumed power after his father, Sneferu. Khufu's short name is “Khnum Khu Af Oyu," which translates as “Khnum is the one who protects me.". His rule began around 2650 B.C. Khufu is credited with creating the Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest building on Earth, and being the sole survivor of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
The next step will be to the Khafre pyramid complex, where you can see the Pyramid of the King, the Valley Temple, the Temple of the Sphinx, a hallway, and a burial temple. A dozen findings of the Khafre statues were unearthed at the Valley Temple; in 1860, the archaeologist Mariette recovered dozens of them in a pit on the temple floor. Additional statues were discovered during the excavations of Hassan, Jonker, Reisner, and Sigalin (1909–1910). A sub-pyramid with a crypt and five boat pits was also part of the Khafre complex.
After that, we will discover the third, which is called the Pyramid of Menkaure, which is classified as one of the four main monuments of the complex of the Pyramids of Giza. Menkaure is the only one that does not retain any of its original shell of polished limestone.
Next, we will visit Saqqara, another well-known tourist destination in Cairo. Some Egyptian aristocrats began constructing their tombs in Saqqara during the First and Second Egyptian Dynasties. The Director's Bridge, a mastaba constructed during the time of King Kha-Sakhmuwi, the final monarch of the Second Dynasty, was one of the first royal buildings in Saqqara. Mastabas and pyramids were still being built in Saqqara during the dynasties.
At the end of the excursion, we will bring you to the airport to take your flight to your country.
