Our Egyptian odyssey begins at the amazing Great Pyramids of Giza and the nearby Sphinx. At
500 feet high and 750 feet wide at its base, the Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops) is breathtaking
man-made structure, built from enormous stone blocks with a white limestone covering.
Together with the smaller pyramids, the sight of these huge structures is unforgettable. Had
lunch at nearby restaurant overlooking the Pyramids. Afterwards, visit the ancient capital of
Memphis and the famous Step Pyramid of Sakkara. Just found out that Jordan has closed its

borders and that part of the journey has cancelled. Our TAD will continue the Egypt portion of
the trip and all Australian will be asked to return to Oz. Not happy! At this point we were given
conflicting information regarding continuation for foreigners to complete the tour before they get
home and closure of Cairo airport next Thursday from midday. We were advised by The Tour guy
that we should continue on our tour but we fly out of Cairo to Luxor the next morning.

Strict new rule for Aussie travellers
Everyone arriving in Australia from overseas — including returning Australians — will be forced
to self-isolate for 14 days from midnighttonight.
