Step by Step

On this tour you will have the opportunity, for about 8 hours, to explore some of Egypt's most important tourist attractions, such as the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Throughout the tour, you will be accompanied by an expert guide, who will teach you about the history and importance of the monuments you will visit.

You will be picked up from your hotel and driven directly to the pyramids in a private vehicle . With your guide, you will explore the 178-metre high Great Pyramid of Cheops, the Sphinx and the Temple of the Valley, while discovering many interesting facts about the ancient history of this land. You will also have the opportunity to take amazing photos of the landscape and monuments .

The Pyramids of Giza are a complex of three large pyramids built in the ancient city of Memphis, on the plain of Giza, about 15 km from Cairo. They were built between 2613 BC and 2494 BC, and are considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World .

The Great Sphinx of Giza is an imposing statue of a mythological creature with the body of a lion and a human head. It is believed to have been built during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre, around 2500 BC . It is approximately 73 metres long and 20 metres high, and has become an iconic symbol of Ancient Egypt and Egyptian culture in general.

Afterwards, you can visit the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, one of the most important museums in the world dedicated to the history of Ancient Egypt.

It is one of the city's main tourist attractions and a must-see for those interested in Egyptian history and culture.

After the tour, you will be taken back to your hotel, as this is a round trip.

    Good private tour, it makes it so much easier for you to access these amazing sites in Egypt and allows you to enjoy each of them without complications and previous stress. Too bad the weather was not the most pleasant that day.
