Your first stop will be at one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and they are truly awe-inspiring.

The pyramids are also surrounded by the Sphinx, a mysterious creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human.

Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant while enjoying the panoramic view of the Pyramids.

Then you will head to your second sightseeing destination, which is Saqqara, the necropolis of Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt. It is home to many pyramids, including the Step Pyramid of Djoser, which is considered to be the first pyramid ever built. The Step Pyramid is made up of six mastabas, or stepped tombs, stacked on top of each other.
