What you'll see

  1. The Pyramids Of Giza
    30 minutes

    Panoramic Viewpoint – Capture unforgettable photos of all three pyramids. Great Pyramid of Khufu – Explore the largest of the pyramids, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure – Learn the fascinating stories behind these monumental structures. The Great Sphinx – Witness the enigmatic half-human, half-lion statue guarding the plateau. The Valley Temple – Visit the ancient temple believed to be used for mummification rituals.

  2. Panoramic View of the Pyramids
    30 minutes

    A stunning panoramic spot where you can see all three pyramids aligned — perfect for unforgettable photos.

  3. Pyramid of Menkaure
    30 minutes

    Menkaure’s Pyramid, the smallest of the three main pyramids at Giza, may be modest in size but not in significance. Built for Pharaoh Menkaure, it reflects a more refined architectural style and once had a stunning granite casing at its base. Its proportions and elegance give it a unique charm, offering a beautiful contrast to the massive scale of the other pyramids. Standing before it, you can truly appreciate the craftsmanship and symbolic power of ancient Egyptian royalty.

  4. Pyramid Complex of Khafre
    30 minutes

    Khafre’s Pyramid stands out with its preserved limestone cap and powerful presence. It’s slightly smaller than the Great Pyramid but appears taller due to its elevated base.

  5. The Great Pyramid of Khufu
    30 minutes

    The Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids of Giza — and the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. Built over 4,500 years ago using more than 2 million limestone blocks, it’s a masterpiece of engineering and ancient ambition. Standing at 146 meters when it was first completed, it held the record as the tallest human-made structure for over 3,800 years. A true marvel that leaves every visitor speechless.

  6. Valley Temple of Khafre
    30 minutes

    The Valley Temple of Khafre is an ancient mortuary temple where the mummification process is believed to have taken place. Made of massive limestone and granite blocks, this well-preserved structure once connected to the Pyramid of Khafre and the Sphinx. Walking through its halls, you can almost feel the sacred rituals that took place here over 4,500 years ago.

  7. Great Sphinx
    30 minutes

    The Great Sphinx of Giza, with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, is one of the most iconic monuments in the world. Carved from a single block of limestone, it stands guard over the Giza Plateau. Thought to represent Pharaoh Khafre, the Sphinx symbolizes strength, wisdom, and royal power. Its mysterious expression and enormous size — 73 meters long — continue to fascinate visitors and scholars alike.

  8. Grand Egyptian Museum
    2 hours, 30 minutes

    Enjoy a guided tour of the world’s largest archaeological museum. Marvel at the full collection of King Tutankhamun's treasures and thousands of other artifacts. Learn about Egypt's ancient history in a modern, immersive environment.

Great times with Waleed

Satisfying experience. We booked the private tour and it was an intimate experience for the group. The hours we were around the pyramids and getting secret tidbits was amazing.

✨ A VIP Experience at the Pyramids & Beyond ✨

Visiting the iconic Pyramids of Giza, the majestic Great Sphinx of Giza, and the incredible Grand Egyptian Museum was truly an unforgettable experience. Every moment felt surreal, surrounded by history and breathtaking views. What made the tour even more special was our guide, Muhammed Waheeed. He was not only knowledgeable and engaging, but also went above and beyond to make sure I had the best experience possible. From sharing fascinating insights to capturing amazing photos, he made me feel like VIP the entire time. If you’re planning to explore these wonders, I highly recommend this tour especially with Muhammed. Thank you for such a memorable and fun experience!

Don’t skip this tour!

Waleed was an amazing tour guide and very knowledgeable about the history of Ancient Egypt. We were taken to through every attraction as admission fee was included. Transport between the tourist destinations was in a comfortable AC car with great music provided by Essam. Overall, a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cairo!

Felt rushed.

The guide was friendly, but the whole process seemed too rushed, we were rushed through the GEM Museum and were given 20 mins on our own to explore a section, and walked through quickly to the rest of the exhibits. At the pyramids were were not told about going inside to see some of the tombs and the guide took us to some spice and oil shops even though we said we dint want to go. Would not go again with them. We were not taken closer to the Sphinx and show it from far , the guide said that gettimg to the Sphinx is a long walk and on the other side hence cannot go. The guide kept asking me to put a review in when I dint want to and felt like I was forced to put a good review, which I managed to delete and redo. I chose the tour with the option to purchase the pyramids and GEM tickets by myself and that option is cheaper than getting an all inclusive. GEM tickets can be purchased online on the official website. And pyramid tickets available at the new entrance, not a long queue.

Visit to Cairo

Mohamed Galal was an extraordinary tour guide. From the pyramids of Giza to the Fellucas in The Nile river. I totally recommend to anyone visiting Cairo!

rogelioh125 · Apr 2026 · via Tripadvisor

Great pace to see, learn and experience

Mohamed Galal was an amazing tour guide, he really knows his information, easy to talk with and good personality. First time in Egypt did not know what to expect, but having a car take us place to place made it soooo much easier. We had a great time that I’m telling my family to go on this when they come.
