Giza Pyramids, Egyptian Museum and Tahrir Square

  • Get picked up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza at 8:00 am and start your tour.
  • First, visit the world-famous Pyramids of Giza - Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus.
  • After seeing the famous pyramids, head to the Valley Temple.
  • En route, have a closer look at the Great Sphinx - the legendary guardian that stands by the huge funerary complex with its lion body and the head of King Chephren.
  • You can also choose an optional visit inside the Boat Museum or the Cheops Pyramid, but both visits are not included in the tour price.
  • Then continue your day tour to the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. It displays the largest and most precious collection of Egyptian art in the world. It comprises a rare collection of over 250,000 genuine artefacts dating back as far as 5000 years, including an exclusive exhibit dedicated to Tutankhamen - a collection of treasures, gold, and jewellery that were buried in his tomb for over 3,500 years before being discovered in 1920 during the excavation of his tomb.
  • Then pass by Tahrir Square, where the Egyptian revolution began in 2011.
  • End the tour with a drop-off at your hotel.
