We cross the Nile and travel to Giza to the ancient pyramids, built around 2560 BC. Renowned as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, it will be difficult not to stare in amazement upon arriving at the pyramids and ask, 'How were they built? And why?' Rest assured that all of our guides are trained Egyptologists who will be pleased to assist you and respond to any inquiries you may have. There will be the option at this point of the tour to go inside one of the three ancient pyramids.
The Great Sphinx and its temple will then be seen for the first time as we descend to the Valley of the Kings at Kafra, which is located on the edge of the plateau. A lion's body and a human head combine to form the legendary Great Sphinx of Giza.
