in the desert on the west bank of the Nile. Our English Egyptologist
guide will take you to the Red Pyramid (also the North Pyramid);
the third largest Egyptian pyramid, after Khufu (also Cheops) and Khafra
(also Chephren) Pyramids at Giza. The Red Pyramid was the third
pyramid built by Sneferu. Then you will see the Bent Pyramid,
the second pyramid built by the Pharaoh Sneferu
Afterwards you will be taken to Memphis, the first capital of Egypt
which serves a number of the most important archaeological finds over the
millennia.
