Itinerary
The Pyramid of Khufu, also known as the Great Pyramid of Giza, is the largest of the three pyramids on the Giza Plateau. Built around 2560 BCE, it served as a tomb for Pharaoh Khufu and is the only remaining wonder of the ancient world.
Khafre's Pyramid, the second-largest at Giza, was built for Pharaoh Khafre around 2570 BCE. It stands out with its well-preserved casing stones at the top and is part of a complex that includes the Great Sphinx, believed to bear Khafre's likeness.
The Third Pyramid at Giza, also known as the Pyramid of Menkaure, is the smallest of the three main pyramids. Built for Pharaoh Menkaure around 2490 BCE, it stands about 65 meters tall and is distinguished by its granite casing at the base and refined architectural style.
The Great Sphinx of Giza, Egypt’s iconic limestone statue, features a lion's body and a human head—believed to represent Pharaoh Khafre. Standing guard near the pyramids, it symbolizes strength and wisdom and remains one of the world’s oldest and largest monolithic sculptures.
Saqqara, located near Giza, Egypt, is a vast ancient burial ground famous for the Step Pyramid of Djoser—the world’s oldest stone pyramid. Part of the Memphis necropolis, Saqqara showcases tombs, temples, and artifacts that offer a glimpse into early Egyptian civilization.
Memphis, near Giza in Egypt, was the first capital of ancient Egypt, founded around 3100 BCE. It served as a political and cultural center for centuries and is home to impressive ruins, including statues of Ramses II and the Temple of Ptah

About Giza
Giza, on the edge of Cairo, is home to the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx and a desert plateau that has drawn travellers for thousands of years.
The plateau holds three great pyramids, built for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, along with smaller queens' pyramids and rows of nobles' tombs. The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still standing, and the Great Sphinx keeps watch below, carved from the bedrock beside Khafre's valley temple.
Top-ranked sights in Giza: Sphinx (Great Sphinx of Giza), Giza Pyramids, Great Pyramid of Giza (Khufu Pyramid).
