- Have a break for lunch in a local restaurant or cafe. After that, head to Sakkara, approximately 30 minutes from Giza. Sakkara is home to the famous Step Pyramid of Djoser, designed by the architect Imhotep.

Also, you will explore the surrounding area, which includes numerous tombs and mastabas (flat-topped, rectangular structures) of high-ranking officials from the Old Kingdom.
