Description
Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Cairo. Travel south to Dahshur in a private, air-conditioned vehicle.
Arrive at the Red Pyramid, the third-largest pyramid in Egypt, built for King Sneferu. Learn about the pyramid's impressive scale and smooth-sided design while your guide shares the story of Sneferu’s ambitious building projects and how they helped shape the evolution of pyramid construction before the great pyramids of Giza.
For an even more immersive experience, enter the Red Pyramid through its northern entrance and descend into the interior chambers. Walk through the ancient passageways, pause in the stillness, and listen to the echoes and whispers of a world that existed more than 4,500 years ago.
After this awe-inspiring journey into Egypt’s distant past, return comfortably to your hotel.
