Pyramids of Giza
Your journey begins at 8:00 AM with a pickup from your hotel in Cairo or Giza by a guide from Excellent Tour. This marks the start of your full-day Giza tour. You will visit the iconic Giza Pyramids, including the Great Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinos. Next, explore the Valley Temple, where priests once mummified King Chephren, the builder of the second pyramid at Giza Plateau. This is also the location where you can get an up-close view of the Sphinx, the mythical guardian with a lion’s body and the head of King Chephren, standing sentinel by the vast funeral complex
