Giza pyramids

One of the most mysterious seven wonders of the ancient world (and the only one that still exists.)

-Pyramid of Cheops: (You will visit it from inside)

The construction of the pyramid dates from approximately the year 2560 BC, when it was built as a tomb for the pharaoh khufu, and its construction continued over a period of 20 years. You’ll visit it from inside and you’ll see also the King’s Chamber and the Grand Gallery.

-Pyramid of Khafre

It is one of the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. It is built by King Khafre. Lower in height than his father’s pyramid (Khufu), it is built on an area of 215 square meters and has two entrances on the northern side. It retains some of its outer covering at the top.

-Pyramid of Menkaure

it is the smallest of the three main pyramids of the Giza pyramid complex located on the Giza plateau in the southwestern suburbs of Cairo, Egypt. It is believed to have been built to serve as a tomb for the Egyptian pharaoh Mykarenus.

Giza Plateau

Explore the most famous sightseeing in the world, the Giza pyramids! In this sightseeing, you will learn a lot of stories and secrets about the pyramids from our specialist archeologist tour guide. In this sightseeing, you will visit nine pyramids, three of them belonging to the kings of the 4th dynasty, in addition to 6 smaller pyramids belonging to the queens of ancient Egypt.

Then move to visit Great Sphinx

After visiting the pyramids of Giza, you will visit the Valley temple of King Khafre, which was built to mummify his body after death. The Valley temple of king Khafre is attached to the great sphinx, which belongs to the same king. The statue of the sphinx has the head of king Khafre and the body of the lion to guard his pyramid.

The Great Sphinx Which is known in Arabic as Abu Al Hol (Father of Terror), the ancient Greeks dubbed this sculpture of a man with the haunches of a lion the Sphinx because it resembled their mythical winged monster who set riddles and killed anyone unable to answer them. A geological survey has shown that it was most likely carved from the bedrock at the bottom of the causeway during Khafre’s reign, so it probably portrays his features.

Our professional Egyptologist tour guide will tell you a lot of stories and secrets about the Valley temple and about the Great Sphinx.
