Highlights

After pickup from your accommodations in Cairo or Giza, enjoy an air-conditioned ride to the Pyramid area. On arrival, hop on a quad and set off to explore the great Pyramids up close. Ride your quad around the pyramids and admire the grandeur of the Pyramids of Cheops, Mykerinus, and Chephren from outside the Pyramid Area. Then head to Sahara City, a place tourists seldom go. When you get there, enjoy a refreshing welcome with traditional tea. You'll also get a bottle of mineral water or a soft drink while you take a short rest at the top of the desert. Then, after returning your quad, get ready to enjoy your camel ride. Explore the area in the more ancient and traditional way on the back of a camel. You'll roam around the area at a much slower pace for a completely different experience. Admire the endurance of the ancient edifices that have stood for thousands of years and see the iconic Great Sphinx of Giza. back to your hotel See less

  2. Take a two-hour ride through stunning terrain to observe Egyptian sand dunes and smell the ancient history wind. During your camel ride around the Giza pyramids, you'll pause for a panoramic view of all the pyramids and a cup of local tea with a pleasant mint flavor. Finally, our representative will return you to your hotel. Most camels are from Sudan and Somalia and have arrived in Egypt through Abu Simbel in the south. Those that aren't sold there are taken to Birqash, a small village. The camel market is not for the faint of heart – these animals are not treated like beloved pets. After visiting the market, transfer back to Cairo.

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.
