This tour is the time machine where we go back more than 5000 years ago exploring how they live, what they eat, what their dreams and more, such an unbelievable feeling you will get, because you will visit Giza Pyramids which have become nearly equivalent with Egypt itself. Their incredible size continues to impress millions of visitors each year, as they struggle to understand how three kings Cheops, Chephren, & Mikerinos, could have constructed such massive structures so long time ago. Regardless of their fame, the Giza Pyramids considered only a short chapter in the long history of Ancient Egypt. All three great pyramids, as well as the Queen’s pyramids next to them, were built during the Old Kingdom 4th dynasty

He made a quick decision and changed his design in order to make it safer, When he finished, the pyramid’s angle was just 43 degrees! Today, it is called Bent Pyramid, which was built from local limestone and cased in fine limestone. Its height is about 101m The Red Pyramid King Senfru's architect was more careful, he made the complete Pyramid in history. This “perfect pyramid” is known as the Northern Pyramid or Red Pyramid,

This was a great company...

This was a great company for this experience. My friends and I are currently living in Cairo studying abroad for the semester and really just wanted a way to get to visit all of the pyramids. We have had so many tours at this point that we did the driver only option and it was great. We saw everything we wanted to see and had an amazing day.
