- Pyramids of Giza - Your tour begins with a pickup from your hotel in Cairo or Giza by a tour guide. You will then be transported to the Giza Pyramids in a private air-conditioned limousine or van. Upon arrival, you’ll embark on a unique camel tour of the Giza Pyramids, delving into ancient history with the guidance of an expert who will explain all the historical points related to the pyramids and surrounding sites.
Unlike most camel tours in Egypt, our tour offers a unique entrance to the desert, avoiding the busy, crowded streets. Instead, you’ll experience the pristine, untouched desert. You’ll see the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Valley Temple. Visiting the Giza Pyramids on camelback feels like traveling back in time by hundreds of years.
- Menkaure Pyramid - 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. The mortuary temple also contained several statues of Menkaure.
- Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) - The only completely preserved portrait of the king is a three-inch high ivory figurine found in a temple ruin from a later period at Abydos in 1903. All other reliefs and statues were found in fragments, and many of Khufu’s buildings are lost. Everything known about Khufu comes from inscriptions in his necropolis at Giza and later documents. For instance, Khufu is the main character in the Westcar Papyrus from the 13th dynasty.
- Khafre’s Pyramid - Khafre’s pyramid complex includes a valley temple, the Sphinx temple, a causeway, a mortuary temple, and the king’s pyramid. The valley temple contained several statues of Khafre, some of which were found in a well in the temple floor by Mariette in 1860. Others were discovered during subsequent excavations by Sieglin (1909–10), Junker, and Reisner.
- Great Sphinx - The Sphinx and Valley Temple offer a unique experience when visiting the Giza Pyramids on camelback, making you feel as if you’ve traveled back in time by hundreds of years.
The tour concludes with a return to your hotel.
