Tag 01 Tour to Memphis, Dahshour and Felucca

Happy Egypt Tour guide will meet at the reception of your hotel and start your tour to Dahshour. It is about 40 km south of Cairo on the west bank of the Nile. Dahshour is famous for (by) the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid, which were constructed by King Senfru (2613–2589 BC ), the father of Khufu ( Cheops).

There is also a pyramid that was built by Amenmehat II (1929–1895), the 12th dynasty, which is now badly damaged. Several tombs of royal women were built there as well. King Senusert III built two pyramids there. The Black Pyramid was built by King Amenmehat III; it remains the most imposing monument at the site after the two Senfru pyramids. Several other pyramids of the 13th dynasty were built at Dahshour.

Then, you will head to Memphis, the 1st capital of ancient Egypt. The city was founded by King Menes from the 1st dynasty. It occupied a strategic position at the mouth of the Nile Delta. The famous god Ptah was highly worshipped in Memphis. In this half-day in Cairo, you will visit the open-air museum of Memphis, which, amongst other artifacts, exhibits a colossus of Ramses II

From the name of Ptah’s temple there ( hit- ka- Ptah ), the Greek name of Egypt ( Aigyptos ) ( Ai- gy- ptos ) was derived. In Memphis, the first united government of Egypt was established in 2925 BC, under the authority of King Menes, the 1st king of Upper and Lower Egypt. Memphis is the Greek name of the Egyptian name ( min – mfr), today it is called Mit Rahina. Then, end your tour with a felucca ride on the Nile

We took a ride in the village of Slavia, but I couldn't find an option to review this activity
Because it is temporary so I found this company on the Internet, customer service staff is good, but the only US is not enough is that he can only brush cards online can not pay cash, hope to have the option of paying cash

We had a great afternoon
Leading our guide Ahmed people are good, we because of the previous trip delayed time, let him wait for us a while on the boat, up to the boat to discover the entire boat only us, he also gave us water and drinks, we saw the sunset on the boat to take pictures very carefully, the road Ahmed like we told the surrounding view, some understand some not understand, but this is the charm of travel
Finally arrived at the place where Ahmed was very good to support us in the upper edge, the youth who carried the rope was also reassured to give us, but there was no stubborn edge in the back of the supervision, on the road we would run for a while and walk very self-sufficient, in his body we were afraid and excited, and finally walked into the village of slavery, we went to eat slavery bread with black sugar and adult food, that servant and our soy milk taste super like soy milk, also drank black tea, because Arab coffee is interested so we also tried, the taste is very special. Finally we went to the school in Slavia for a class, really a classroom, we quickly learned some Arabic and Slavic, really too hard, but very happy, if not to rush back and gather, really want to slow down the whole village
