Highlights

The great pyramid of Cheops is considered the only wonder of the seven wonders of the Ancient World that still survives, and it dates back to about 2500 B.C. From far away, the pyramid of his son, Chephren, looks higher than the pyramid of Cheops since it was built on higher ground. The pyramid of his grandson, Mycerinus, is partially cased with granite blocks. The Great Sphinx is attributed to King Chephren and is considered the Guardian of the Giza plateau; many stories claim it was built by the Aliens or the people of Atlantis. You can all these significant buildings you will visit with a qualified Egyptologist tour guide on this private tour.

About Cairo

Cairo is Egypt's sprawling capital on the Nile, where the Pyramids of Giza meet medieval mosques, busy bazaars and the treasures of the pharaohs.

On the western edge of the city, the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx rise from the desert plateau, with the step pyramid of Saqqara and the ruins of Memphis further south. Cairo's great museums, the Egyptian Museum on Tahrir Square and the vast Grand Egyptian Museum beside the plateau, hold artefacts spanning thousands of years.

Top-ranked sights in Cairo: Egyptian Museum (Museum of Egyptian Antiquities), Saqqara (Sakkara), Khan El-Khalili.
