Have your breakfast at the hotel. Your private Egyptologist tour guide and driver will pick you up to start your day tour.

Drive to Sakkara to see the Step Pyramid, built by the exalted architect Imhotep for the 3rd Dynasty Pharaoh Djoser. You will visit one of the mastabas in Sakkara that dates to more than 4,500 years ago and see the amazing carvings and colors, which give an idea about life in ancient Egypt.

On your way, you will visit a papyrus institute where you will be taken on a journey through the craft using step-by-step demonstrations and extensive displays of papyrus artworks to view and have the chance to buy souvenirs.
