Aurevia Nile
2h · Admission ticket included
The tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo, taking you to the Giza Plateau to explore the majestic Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus. After marveling at these ancient wonders, you'll visit the iconic Great Sphinx, a colossal statue with the head of a pharaoh and the body of a lion, believed to date back to the reign of Chephren. The tour also includes a stop at the Valley Temple, which is part of the Pyramid complex of Chephren. This temple served two key purposes: it was used to purify the king's mummy before burial and played a crucial role in the mummification process.
The Great Pyramid of Khufu
30m · Admission ticket included
During your visit to the Giza Plateau, you’ll explore the iconic Great Pyramid of Khufu, the oldest and largest of the three pyramids, built over 4,500 years ago. The tour also includes a stop at the Valley Temple, where mummification rituals were believed to take place — a fascinating site that offers deeper insight into ancient Egyptian beliefs and funerary practices.
30m · Admission ticket included
You’ll see the impressive Pyramid of Chephren, the second-largest pyramid, easily recognized by the remains of its original casing stones at the top. Built for Pharaoh Chephren, it stands proudly beside the Great Sphinx, adding to the grandeur of this ancient royal complex.
30m
You’ll also visit the Great Sphinx, a magnificent limestone statue with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh. It stands as a guardian of the Giza Plateau and remains one of Egypt’s most iconic monuments.
Pyramid of Menkaure
Pass by
Your tour continues to the Pyramid of Menkaure, the smallest of the three main pyramids at the Giza Plateau. Though more modest in size, it stands out for its refined construction and granite casing at the base. This pyramid belonged to Pharaoh Menkaure, and it reflects the final chapter of royal pyramid building at Giza, offering a unique contrast to the grand scale of Khufu and Khafre.
Panoramic View of the Pyramids
30m
After exploring the three pyramids, you'll head to the Panorama Viewpoint — the perfect spot to see all the pyramids together in one breathtaking scene. This is a great opportunity to take stunning photos with the desert landscape and the iconic pyramids in the background. It's a must-stop for capturing unforgettable memories of your visit to the Giza Plateau.
