Itinerary

Day1

Arrival in Cairo – Welcome to Egypt

Welcome to Egypt! Start your 6-Day Cairo and Alexandria Family Tour Package with a welcome when you arrive at Cairo International Airport. A friendly person who speaks English will meet you at the airport. Help you with the arrival procedures, such as immigration and getting your luggage.

Then you will be taken comfortably in an air-conditioned car to your hotel close to the Giza Pyramids. Check in take a break. Have a peaceful evening, after your trip. This is the perfect beginning to one of our Egypt Tour Packages for Families.

Day2

Visit to Memphis Pyramid

After breakfast the guide will meet the family in the hotel lobby and start the day of the Egypt family vacation from Cairo to Alexandria beginning with a visit to the historic city of Memphis.

Travel in comfort in an air‑conditioned car to see the Memphis Pyramid, an old monument that gives a fascinating look at Egypt’s deep history. The Memphis Pyramid was once 52 meters tall and had a base of about 78 meters. After thousands of years natural erosion and damage have made the Memphis Pyramid smaller and today the remains are about 15 meters tall.

Unlike the well‑known stone pyramids, at Giza the Memphis Pyramid was mainly built from mud bricks. Then covered with limestone. That building method has caused the Memphis Pyramid to break down over centuries.

Spend time exploring the site learning about the capital city of Memphis and finding out the stories of one of Egypt’s lesser‑known pyramid monuments. The family will have the chance to enjoy a learning and memorable visit before moving on to the rest of the Cairo sightseeing program.
