Itinerario

1. Begin at the iconic panoramic overlook where all six pyramids of Giza — Khufu, Khafre, Menkaure, and their three satellite pyramids — spread across the Sahara horizon in one sweeping view. The best photo opportunity of the entire plateau, and the perfect orientation before entering the complex. Your guide explains who built what, why, and how — myths debunked, mysteries explored.

   45 min

2. Stand at the base of the only remaining Wonder of the Ancient World. At 146 metres tall when built, Khufu's pyramid held the record as the tallest structure on earth for over 3,800 years. Your guide walks you through the engineering mystery, the astronomical alignments, and the competing theories about how 2.3 million stone blocks were placed without modern machinery.

   1 h

3. The Smallest pyramid in Giza plateau, now it is about 61m high, Menkaure pyramid is very special because of the granite outer layer still remains on the lower part of the pyramid, the granite was quarried from Aswan over 1000 kilometers away from Giza!!!

   15 min

4. The second-largest pyramid on the plateau still retains its original limestone casing at the peak — the only pyramid that does. Your guide explores Khafre's valley temple and the remarkably intact causeway connecting it to the burial chamber above.

   30 min

5. Carved from a single limestone outcrop during the reign of Khafre around 2500 BC, the Sphinx is the oldest monumental sculpture on earth. Standing 20 metres tall with the body of a lion and the face of a king, it has guarded the Giza Plateau for 4,500 years. Your guide shares the ongoing debates about its true age, its missing nose, and what lies beneath.

About Cairo

Il Cairo, vasta capitale egiziana sul Nilo, dove le piramidi di Giza incontrano moschee medievali, bazar affollati e tesori dei faraoni.

Al margine occidentale della città, le piramidi di Giza e la Grande Sfinge si innalzano dall'altopiano desertico, con la piramide a gradoni di Saqqara e le rovine di Menfi più a sud. I grandi musei del Cairo, il Museo Egizio in piazza Tahrir e il vasto Grande Museo Egizio accanto all'altopiano, custodiscono reperti che coprono migliaia di anni.

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