See the pyramids of Khufu, Khafra and Menkaure, essential when visiting Egypt. The archaeological complex at Giza, near Cairo, is impressive from the start.
Itinerary
We will pick you up from your hotel in the morning or at the Alexandria port, based on your preference, to travel to Cairo.
Upon arrival in Cairo, the tour proceeds to the Giza pyramids on the city's outskirts. This guided tour will cover the archaeological site, which includes the pyramids and burial tombs of pharaohs Khufu, Khafra, and Menkaure. You will learn about their mysteries, many still under investigation. Next to the pyramids is the Sphinx of Giza, known for its remarkable secret.
After exploring the site, we will return to take a guided tour of the Cairo Egyptian Museum. Among numerous pharaonic artifacts, the funeral mask of Tutankhamun stands out, famously discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter.
We will have lunch in central Cairo before visiting the Coptic neighborhood, where you will see The Hanging Church, built over the ruins of the old Babylonian fortress.
In the evening, we will return to Alexandria.
