Stand in awe before the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the last surviving wonder of the ancient world, and learn the fascinating secrets behind its 20-year construction. Nearby, the Pyramids of Chephren and Mycerinus reveal their majestic symmetry and the enduring artistry of the ancient Egyptians. Capture breathtaking photos before visiting the Great Sphinx of Giza, the half-lion, half-man guardian of the royal tombs.

Your Grand Egyptian Museum Tour continues with a visit to the Valley Temple of King Chephren, where ancient rituals of mummification once took place. After exploring these legendary sites, savor a delicious lunch at a local restaurant offering authentic Egyptian cuisine.

Next, prepare for a highlight that every traveler has been waiting for — the Grand Egyptian Museum, often called the “One Billion Dollar Museum.” Located just a few kilometers from the pyramids, this state-of-the-art complex showcases over 100,000 artifacts, including treasures of Tutankhamun, royal statues, and ancient relics spanning Egypt’s glorious history. Wander through vast galleries designed to bring ancient civilization to life through innovative displays and immersive storytelling.
