Pyramids of Giza - Visiting the Pyramids of Giza is a breathtaking journey into the heart of ancient Egypt. Standing on the edge of the vast Sahara Desert, these monumental structures—Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure—have withstood the test of time, preserving the grandeur and mystery of a civilization that flourished over 4,500 years ago. As you approach, the sheer scale of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest of the three, is awe-inspiring, its massive limestone blocks reflecting the brilliance of the desert sun.
The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - Commencing at 8:00 am, your comprehensive day tour kicks off with a pickup from your hotel by a knowledgeable tour guide.
