Explore the Giza Pyramids and Great Sphinx

On the outskirts of Cairo stands one of the Seven Wonders of the World: the Great Pyramids. Built around 4,500 years ago, the three towering pyramids are massive in size, constructed from around 2,300,000 blocks weighing an average of two-and-a-half tons each. Get up close with your Egyptologist tour guide and be dazzled by the external magnificence of these wonders.
Within a short walking distance of the pyramids is the Great Sphinx of Giza, built in 2620 BC in the likeness of the then King of Egypt, Chephren (Khafre). The ancient monument - 187 feet long and 65 feet high - is a human-headed lion wearing a royal headdress, sitting guard over the Great Pyramids.
