Itinerary
Visiting the Giza Pyramids is one of the most unforgettable experiences in Egypt. Located on the edge of Cairo, this iconic site takes you back thousands of years to the time of the ancient Pharaohs. The highlight of the visit is the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest and oldest of the three pyramids, standing as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Nearby, you’ll also find the Pyramid of Khafre and the Pyramid of Menkaure, each with its own unique history and structure. One of the most fascinating sights is the Great Sphinx, a massive limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, guarding the pyramids for centuries. During your visit, you can walk around the pyramids, take stunning photos, explore the surrounding desert, or even enjoy a camel or horse ride for a more traditional experience. The panoramic view of all three pyramids together is a perfect spot for memorable pictures.
Visiting the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is a modern journey into the heart of ancient Egyptian civilization. Located near the Giza Pyramids, the museum is one of the largest archaeological museums in the world and a new cultural landmark in Egypt. The museum showcases thousands of artifacts, including the complete collection of King Tutankhamun’s treasures displayed together for the first time. Visitors are welcomed by the impressive Grand Hall, featuring a colossal statue of Ramses II, setting the tone for an extraordinary experience. Inside, the galleries are designed in a chronological and immersive way, allowing visitors to explore Egypt’s history from prehistoric times through the Greco-Roman period. Advanced technology, interactive displays, and spacious exhibition areas make the visit both educational and engaging. One of the highlights is the Grand Staircase, lined with monumental statues and offering stunning views toward the Giza Pyramids.

We went on a tour of the Saqqara Pyramids with Romany, during the morning. At the end, we got to go the a carpet makers in the region and see the carpets they had for sale. Romany knows a lot of history and is very nice. The visit was informative and he takes lot of pictures for you. He even bought us aome water and sweets! The pick-up and drop-off is easy to arrange and everyone was very punctual. Thank you for everything! Best wishes from Portugal

We had an absolutely amazing time touring the Giza Plateau, and it was all thanks to our incredible tour guide mina! From the moment the tour started, their passion for Egyptian history was obvious. They didn't just rattle off facts and dates; they told fascinating stories that really brought the pyramids and the Sphinx to life. If you are visiting Giza, booking a tour with them is an absolute must. They made our trip truly unforgettable. Highly recommended and vfm!!!

I had a great experience on this trip with my son. The team was great and knowledgeable. Mr Ali picked us up at the hotel in a timely manner and Mr Mina our tour guide was very nice with my 6years which made the tour very easy. He was very good with him and knowledgeable about the history. First time in Egypt but will not be my last time. Next time I know who to call for my visit and I already told my friends and family about this trip and they are planning the visit. Thank you again for making my son and I first time in Cairo experience be smooth and great 🙏
