  2. Saqqara Pyramid
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    A special highlight in Saqqara is a visit to the magnificently decorated tombs of the senior officials of the Old Kingdom. The unique reliefs impressively depict everyday life over 4,500 years ago – from agriculture and crafts to music, hunting and religious ceremonies. As a German-speaking Egyptologist, I will explain the history, symbolism and life of the viziers and highest officials of the pharaohs.

    After our visit to Saqqara with its impressive tombs of the senior officials and viziers of the Old Kingdom, as well as the famous Step Pyramid of the Djoser, we continue north to the Pyramids of Giza. On the way we take a pleasant lunch break and enjoy an oriental lunch at a local restaurant.
  5. The Pyramids Of Giza
    2h 30m · Admission ticket not included
    After arriving at Giza Plateau, we will make three carefully selected photo stops and viewpoints.
