Highlights
  • Giza Plateau - Explore the Giza Pyramids, including the Great Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinos. Visit the Valley Temple, where priests mummified King Chephren’s body, and get a close-up view of the Sphinx, the legendary guardian with a lion’s body and King Chephren’s head.
  • Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) - Khufu’s pyramid complex features a valley temple, now buried beneath the village of Nazlet el-Samman. Diabase paving and nummulitic limestone walls have been discovered, but the site remains unexcavated. The valley temple was connected to a causeway, largely destroyed during the village’s construction.
  • 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 revealed several statues of Khafre, found in a well by Mariette in 1860 and during later excavations by Sieglin (1909–10), Junker, and Reisner.
  • Menkaure Pyramid - Menkaure’s pyramid complex comprises 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 Sphinx - Visit the Sphinx statue, and our guide will help you capture memorable photos, selecting the best locations for your shots.

Lunch is included at a local restaurant, but beverages are not included.

  • Nile River - Transfer to downtown Cairo to board a traditional Egyptian boat known as a Felucca. Enjoy a relaxing Felucca ride along the Nile River, where you can experience Cairo’s vibrant nightlife or bask in the warm sun during the day.

100% recommended - I was picked up on time by a driver and the tour guide, I was the only one in the tour so I was driven around in a black car, experience was great! Adel is an amazing guide, very knowledgeable, friendly and quite funny. I opted to join the camel ride experience and I am glad I did. The driver was friendly too and prompt in time whenever we needed to be picked up after every place we visited. Lunch was delicious and everyone at the restaurant was amicable and attentive. I strongly recommend this tour to anybody visiting Egypt. I learned a lot about Egyptian history, got to see some beautiful sites, and created good memories.

Tour to Historic Amr ibn Al Aas Mosque, Mosque and Madrassa of Sultan Hassan and Mosque of Al-Refaei, Cairo - If you need the perfect guide then Ali Nagoya is your guide. I recently booked two similar tours but that was not a problem. Ali came up with a great alternative tour that showed me three incredibly historic, significant and beautiful mosques in Cairo/old Cairo. This was such a wonderful tour and it was a delight to get to see more of Cairo’s special places. Ali’s knowledge and experience was a wonderful compliment to the amazing places we visited.
