Highlights
  • Pyramids of Giza - At your requested time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza City. Our tour guide will be waiting for you with a sign displaying your name. You will then be transferred by private car to the Giza Pyramids to start your tour of these world-renowned wonders. Visit the Pyramids of Cheops, Khafre, Menkaure, the Valley of the Kings, and the Great Sphinx, the largest statue in Egypt.

  • Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) - Khufu’s pyramid complex includes a valley temple, now buried beneath the village of Nazlet el-Samman. Diabase paving and nummulitic limestone walls have been discovered, but the site has not been excavated.

  • Khafre’s Pyramid - Khafre’s pyramid complex features a valley temple, the Sphinx temple, a causeway, a mortuary temple, and the king’s pyramid. The valley temple has yielded several statues of Khafre, some found in a well in the temple floor by Mariette in 1860, and others during later excavations by Sieglin (1909–10), Junker, Reisner, and Hassan.

  • Pyramid of Menkaure - Menkaure’s pyramid complex includes a valley temple, a causeway, a mortuary temple, and the king’s pyramid. The valley temple once housed several statues of Menkaure. During the 5th Dynasty, a smaller ante-temple was added to the valley temple.

  • Great Sphinx - Here, you will get a close-up view of The Sphinx, the legendary guardian with a lion’s body and the head of King Chephren, standing by the vast funeral complex.

  • Giza Plateau - The Giza Plateau is a limestone plateau in Giza, Egypt, home to the Fourth Dynasty Giza pyramid complex, which includes the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, the Great Sphinx, several cemeteries, a workers’ village, and an industrial complex. It is the northernmost part of the 16,000-hectare Pyramid Fields in the Western Desert edge of the Nile Valley, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Memphis and its Necropolis. The plateau is about 60 meters above sea level.

A Once in a Lifetime Experience - It was a weird and wonderful day . The weather was crazy but that didn’t stop my terrific guide Mohamed Hamed . The sand blew in our faces at Giza seeing the Pyramids , but that just gave the photos a moody other-worldly look . Seeing the Pyramids like this was magical . Next we were off to the felucca sailboat ride on the Nile which turned into a motorboat ride due to the gusting wind and pelting rain - a cause for great laughter ! Just being on the Nile was incredible ! Being picked up and dropped off at my hotel made travelling solo a breeze. Worth every penny.
