- Private tour
- Solo friendly
- Family friendly
Stand face to face with the last surviving wonder of the ancient world on this private half-day excursion to the Giza Plateau, just a short drive from central Cairo. You'll take in the three great pyramids built for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, come eye to eye with the enigmatic Great Sphinx, and step inside the granite halls of Khafre's Valley Temple. A private Egyptologist guide brings roughly 4,500 years of history to life, sharing the stories and engineering secrets behind these monuments. Ideal for travellers short on time, this tour captures Egypt's most iconic landmarks in a relaxed morning before returning you to your hotel.
Today we will drive you to the Giza Plateau for a private guided tour of the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, Menkaure, the Great Sphinx and Khafre's Valley Temple by using a shuttle bus. Then lunch will be served in one of the local restaurants. After exploring this incredible site, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
Your day begins with a pick-up from your hotel in a private air-conditioned vehicle, where your licensed Egyptologist guide welcomes you and introduces the history of the Giza Plateau. Standing before the Great Pyramid of Khufu — the oldest and largest of the three pyramids and the last surviving wonder of the ancient world — you will learn how these monuments were built more than 4,500 years ago. The tour continues past the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure and on to the Great Sphinx and Khafre's Valley Temple, with your guide sharing the stories, mythology and engineering behind each landmark, and plenty of time for photographs against the desert skyline. A relaxed lunch at a local restaurant completes your visit before your private transfer back to your hotel.
