Itinerary
Step into the "Last Standing Wonder." This tour takes you to the Giza Plateau, home to the only survivor of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Marvel at the Great Pyramid of Khufu, a 2.3-million-block masterpiece that reigned as the world's tallest structure for nearly 4,000 years.
Experience the "Peak of Perfection" at the Pyramid Complex of Khafre, the only Giza monument still wearing its original limestone casing at the summit. Built by the pharaoh whose face likely adorns the Great Sphinx, this site features a genius optical illusion that makes it appear taller than its neighbors, a perfectly preserved Valley Temple with seamless granite masonry, and the most complete sacred causeway in all of Egypt.
