Depart from Hurghada and travel toward Cairo

The Giza Pyramid Complex, or Giza Necropolis, lies on the Giza Plateau in Egypt. It houses the Great Pyramid of Giza, as well as the Pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, their associated complexes, and the famous Great Sphinx. These grand structures were built during the Fourth Dynasty of Egypt’s Old Kingdom. The site also features numerous ancient cemeteries and the remains of a village that once provided housing for the workers who constructed the pyramids.

The Great Sphinx of Giza, often simply called the Sphinx, is a monumental limestone statue of a reclining sphinx—a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human. Facing east, it stands on the Giza Plateau along the west bank of the Nile River in Giza, Egypt.

Papyrus, an ancient predecessor of the modern book, is believed to have originated in Egypt during the First Dynasty. It was crafted from the papyrus plant, which once grew abundantly along the banks of the Nile River.

The Cairo Tower is a modern landmark of the Egyptian capital, known for its distinctive design and lattice structure inspired by the lotus flower. Located in the Zamalek district, this telecommunications tower rises to a height of 187 meters and offers panoramic views of Cairo’s skyline.

Tahrir Square (Midan Al-Tahrir) is one of Cairo’s largest and most iconic public squares, located at the heart of the city. Originally named Khedive Ismail Square, it was renamed “Tahrir,” meaning "liberation," after the July 23rd Revolution of 1952, which ended the monarchy and ushered in the modern Egyptian republic. Recognizing its historic significance and symbolic value, the government launched a major redevelopment project to enhance the square. Tahrir has also been a focal point for major political movements, including the January 25 and June 30 revolutions.
