Description

Discover a different side of Ancient Egypt on a private day tour to Fayoum Oasis, home to some of Egypt's oldest and least-visited pyramids.

Accompanied by a professional licensed Egyptologist guide, travel in comfort from Cairo and explore remarkable archaeological sites that reveal the evolution of pyramid construction beyond the famous Giza Plateau.

Begin your journey at the Hawara Pyramid, built for Pharaoh Amenemhat III during the 12th Dynasty and once associated with the legendary Labyrinth described by ancient historians.

Continue to the Lahun Pyramid, constructed for Pharaoh Senusret II, where you'll learn about the engineering achievements of Egypt's Middle Kingdom.

Your final stop is the impressive Meidum Pyramid, one of Egypt's earliest pyramid designs and an important step in the development of the true smooth-sided pyramids. Surrounded by peaceful desert landscapes, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of ancient Egyptian architecture.

Enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant in Fayoum before relaxing on your private transfer back to your hotel in Cairo, bringing home unforgettable memories of one of Egypt's hidden historical treasures.
