A very interesting places to see as a side trip to the Giza pyramids and the Egyptian Museum. This is a good trip when your flight outbound is in the evening.
This was a great tour to the area around Cairo. Our guide Ibrahim explained to us clearly and briefly the history of the area. I highly recommend this trip. The area is pleasent with date farms and small canals from the Nile. Transportation van was comfortable and spacious.
A must see trip to see the Saqqara pyramid complex to see the best well preserved ancient carvings, drawings, and Egyptian hieroglyphics. Not many people traveled here, but highly recommended. Memphis has a smaller museum with some well preserved large statues.
