On the morning of your Sokhna shore trip so very much wished for, one of our polite representatives waits in the port and escorts you in a modern A/C vehicle to the historical plateau of Giza. The trip is scenic alone, and the enriching commentary adds colourful insight into Egypt's ancient wonders.
The majestic Giza Pyramids have been standing tall for more than 4,500 years, astounding witnesses to the grandeur and genius of the ancient Egyptian civilization. Built by the kings of the Third Dynasty, these pyramids were designed as eternal resting places for Egypt's mightiest rulers; today, they are considered topmost attractions all along an Egypt tour.
Among your explorations will be the Great Sphinx, a colossal sculpture with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh. It is alleged by some researchers to be the son of the sun god Ra. The Sphinx has for centuries come to symbolise strength, wisdom and the everlasting spirit of Egypt.
Not far from this is the agelessly exquisite Valley Temple where mummification rites used to be solemnly conducted by the priests. This temple is the ceremonial doorway into the pyramid complex and plays a key historic role in almost every Egypt shore excursion carefully planned today.
After your exploration of the pyramids, an Egyptian lunch awaits you at a local restaurant, where you will have time to relax and eat some traditional food before moving on with the show.
Then the tour goes on toward Saqqara, home of the innovative Step Pyramid of Djoser. Considered the oldest stone structure of considerable size ever built, the Djoser's Pyramid, erected in the 27th century BC by the famous architect and vizier Imhotep, is also considered to be the formal prototype of all pyramids.
This offers a nuanced insight into ancient Egyptian innovation and is a must on any full Sokhna Port tour. After explorations at Saqqara, your comfortable ride will bring you back to your cruise ship at Sokhna Port with cherished memories of one of the finest shore excursions in Egypt ever.
