Following a morning pickup at your hotel in Cairo or Giza, meet your private guide and take a seat in your air-conditioned minivan. Then, travel in comfort to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Giza Plateau — nestled on the west bank of the Nile River. On arrival, explore the Pyramid of Khafre, the Pyramid of Menkaure and the Pyramid of Cheops — the largest of the area’s three pyramids and oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Then, visit the Valley Temple — where priests mummified the corpse of King Khafre.
After lunch (if option selected), visit the Great Sphinx of Giza — the world’s largest monolith statue. Enjoy close-up views over this world-famous construction and listen as your private guide brings ancient Egypt to life.

<p>This tour was our first introduction to Egypt- our tour guide was wonderful, very informative and helpful in responding to our never ending questions.. The pyramids and Sphinx are awe inspiring to see.<br/> We climbed up inside the pyramid, those steps gave us a cardiac workout- but well worth it! I would do it again.</p>
