Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Pyramids of Giza, Al Haram Str., Giza 12611 Egypt

Meet your guide in the lobby of your hotel 9:00am heading to begin this half-day tour of the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx straight from your hotel in Cairo.

Head toward the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus and discover the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact.

Egyptologists believe the Pyramid of Cheops (also known as the Great Pyramid of Giza) was built as a tomb for the Egyptian Pharaoh Khofo and constructed over a 14 to 20-year period in 2560 BC. During the tour, you will ride your camel for 25 minutes, your guide will help you to take photos.

Note: there is a possibility of entering any of the pyramids inside.

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Great Sphinx, Al-Haram, Giza Egypt

Afterwards, continue on toward the Great Sphinx. The Sphinx has the head of a pharaoh with a lion's body and dates back to the time of Chephren. This sphinx was made to guard the pyramids of King Chefren.

Next, visit the Valley Temple which belonged to the Pyramids of Chephren. The temple acted as a place for the purification and mummification process of the king before burial.

Then you will take your lunch with your guide and will be transferred back to your pickup location.

Duration: 1 hour
