Itinerary
Get ready to tick off a major bucket-list experience! Meet your guide in the lobby of your hotel in Cairo or Giza, and head straight to the legendary Pyramids of Giza Plateau.
Time to meet the star of the show – the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest pyramid in the world! You’ll have plenty of time to snap jaw-dropping photos, walk right up to the entrance, and explore the surrounding area. Don’t miss the chance to check out the ruins of King Khufu’s funerary temple, where the mummification magic happened over 4,500 years ago. Next up, it’s time to visit the Queens’ Pyramids, including the one belonging to Queen Hetepheres – Khufu’s mom. Fun fact: her pyramid is open for visits, but only Sunday through Thursday, so plan accordingly! If you’re feeling extra adventurous and want to step inside the Great Pyramid itself, you’ll need a special ticket – but no worries, your guide will be happy to help you sort that out.
Next, it’s time to explore the Pyramid of Khafre (also known as Chephren), the second-largest pyramid on the Giza Plateau. What sets this one apart? Those smooth, fine limestone casing stones that once covered the entire pyramid – and if you look closely, you’ll still spot some of them clinging to the top. It’s a cool reminder of how these pyramids once gleamed under the desert sun, reflecting light across the landscape.
Last but definitely not least, you’ll visit the Pyramid of Menkaure – the smallest of the three giants at Giza, standing at around 61 meters tall. But don’t let its size fool you! What makes this pyramid extra special is the granite outer casing that still clings to its lower section. And here’s the mind-blowing part – that granite was hauled all the way from Aswan, over 1,000 kilometers away!
Next up is a visit to a breathtaking panoramic viewpoint where you’ll get a front-row seat to all six pyramids and the sprawling city of Giza in the background. You’ll have about 30 minutes to soak it all in and snap those Instagram-worthy shots. This is also the perfect spot to hop on a camel and ride through the desert like a true explorer.
Your adventure isn’t complete without a close-up encounter with the legendary Great Sphinx! With your entry ticket to the pyramids area, you’ll get up close to this iconic guardian of the Giza Plateau – a majestic figure with the body of a lion and the head of King Khafre. Take your time, soak in the ancient energy, and snap as many photos as your heart desires. After all, how often do you get to stand face-to-face with a 4,500-year-old mystery?

The trip to Egypt turned out to be absolutely incredible. The pyramids and the mummy museum by Akmal were great, and he was very informative. The hotel, the food, and everything else by Amin were also great, and the driver Mohammed is very efficient.
Thank you for this unforgettable trip; we love the entire country and all the visits. Our companion Amin facilitated all the procedures at the airport and also gave us many recommendations.
Thank you for the excellent support and service; I was very well attended by the representative Samuel, and our guide Hanna explained everything very well. It was an unforgettable experience. The driver transported us safely and on time.
Fabulous experience. Excellent guides, very good care, willing and solicitous to what was required. We receive accurate and clear information in our activities with them.
Great experience! Between Cairo, the cruise on the Luxor Nile in Aswan and Hurghada, everything was really beautiful. The guides were all very friendly, attentive and safe, we felt confident throughout and they had a lot of knowledge, so the tours were interesting. We were between women and the guides were always very respectful and correct. Only note, perhaps a little more authenticity before departure, regarding the scheduled times (for example 3am for an optional visit or the plane to Luxor) We recommend without hesitation!
Excellent service. The guides give very good explanations in a simple and enjoyable way, they are also very punctual. The hotels the agency uses are very good.
Thank you for your professionalism we always appreciate your hard working with us
Excellent All the Way Around Highly Recommended It!!! Used Bromo Tours ask for Ahmed Eltayeb.
Our trip to Egypt was nothing short of incredible, truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that exceeded every expectation. Travelling with both my elderly nan, who has mobility challenges, and my 2-year-old daughter, I was honestly a little nervous about how it would all work. But from the moment we started, Promo Tours went above and beyond to make everything seamless, comfortable, and enjoyable for all of us. What made this trip truly unforgettable, though, was our guide, Ahmed Saber. I can’t say enough good things about him. His patience, kindness, and genuine care for our family were unmatched. He took the time to ensure my nan was always comfortable and never rushed, while also making the experience fun and engaging for my little one. Ahmed’s knowledge was incredible, every site, every story, every moment was brought to life in such a meaningful and memorable way. You could tell he truly loves what he does, and it made such a difference to our experience. By the end of the trip, he didn’t just feel like a tour guide, he felt like family. If you’re considering Egypt, I cannot recommend Promo Tours highly enough and if you’re lucky enough to have Ahmed Saber as your guide, you are in the very best hands. An unforgettable journey made even more special by unforgettable people. 🇪🇬✨
Wonderful experience, very attentive at all times, very experienced guides A thousand thanks to July and hanan
