Overview

Your journey begins at the Giza Plateau, where you’ll stand in awe before the Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu), the tallest and oldest of the three. Continue to the Pyramid of Chephren (Khafre), which retains some of its original smooth casing stones at the top. Then, visit the small but distinctive Pyramid of Menkaure.

Get close to the iconic Great Sphinx, believed to represent Pharaoh Chephren himself, and learn about its history and mysteries.

Next, enjoy a freshly prepared Egyptian lunch at a quality local restaurant—a chance to relax and savor traditional dishes like kofta, grilled chicken, rice, and fresh salad (vegetarian options available).

After lunch, head to the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. Explore thousands of priceless artifacts, including the glittering treasures of Tutankhamun, royal mummies, and ancient statues.

Wrap up your day with a walk through the atmospheric Khan El Khalili Bazaar, where you can shop.
