Itinerary

1. The Giza Plateau is one of Egypt’s most famous archaeological sites, located near Cairo. It is home to the three great pyramids: Great Pyramid of Khufu – the largest and oldest. Pyramid of Khafre – famous for its remaining limestone casing at the top. Pyramid of Menkaure – the smallest of the three. Great Sphinx – a monumental statue with a lion’s body and a human head. Why is it special? The plateau shows the incredible engineering, architecture, and religious beliefs of ancient Egypt. It is especially important because the Great Pyramid is the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World.

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.
