See the pyramids of Khufu, Khafra and Menkaure, totally unmissable when visiting Egypt. The archaeological complex at Giza, near Cairo, will surprise you from the first minute.

Itinerary

We'll pick you up from your hotel first thing in the morning, or at the Alexandria port, whichever you prefer, to hit the road towards the Egyptian capital.

Once we arrive in Cairo, the tour heads straight for the Giza pyramids, found on the outskirts of the city. We'll make a guided tour through this legendary archaeological site, made up of the pyramids and burial tombs of pharaohs Khufu, Khafra and Menkaure, who immortalised their legacies with these constructions. We'll learn about their main mysteries, many of which are still being investigated by Egyptologists. And next to the pyramids lies the famous Sphynx of Giza, the inheritor of an astonishing secret...

After exploring the historic site, we’ll head back to the country’s capital for a guided tour of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Home to over 120,000 pieces spanning five millennia of history, the galleries and display cases showcase ornate sarcophagi, monumental statues, mummies, and ritual objects that reveal the beliefs, art, and daily life of ancient Egypt.

We'll recharge our batteries with lunch in the centre of Cairo, then will visit the Coptic neighbourhood, one of the most historical parts of the city. We'll see its most famous monument, The Hanging Church, whose name comes from its location: built over the remains of the old Babylonian fortress.

Last thing in the evening we finally head back to Alexandria.

Pick up Point

On this excursion we'll pick you up from your hotel, or if you've arrived by cruise ship, at the port. All you have to do is comment where you would like to be picked up when making your reservation
