Early in the morning, you will be transferred from your hotel in Port Ghalib to Marsa Alam airport, from where you will fly to Cairo. Upon arrival, you will meet your private tour guide and start discovering the city’s remarkable attractions, including:
The Giza Pyramids Complex is an impressive architectural masterpiece featuring several massive structures, including the Great Three Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, the Valley Temple, and six smaller pyramids.
In 2580 BC, an eternal marvel was constructed from 2.3 million limestone blocks, rising to a height of 147 meters (481 feet). Inside, it contains intricate corridors and majestic chambers, earning the Khufu Pyramid the distinction of being the only remaining intact wonder among the famous seven wonders of the ancient world.
The largest, oldest, and most renowned statue in the world is situated in the center of the Giza complex, serving as a protector of this ancient civilization. It depicts the mythical Sphinx, featuring the head of a man—possibly King Khafre—and the body of a lion in a seated posture, measuring 73 meters (240 feet) in height and 19 meters (66 feet) in width.
Since the era of Egypt’s Old Kingdom (2686-2134 BC), immortality has been a hallmark of the ancient Egyptians, marked by the establishment of the Valley temple dedicated to mummification.
The Grand Egyptian Museum serves as a majestic gateway to the extraordinary ancient Egyptian masterpieces, representing 5,000 years of continuous innovation and vibrant artistic creativity. Inside this monumental marvel, visitors have a unique opportunity to explore some of the most significant archaeological monuments and artifacts ever created, including:
The Hanging Obelisk, the statue of King Ramses II, the ten statues of King Senusert, the Grand Staircase, statues of Ptolemaic kings and queens, the Victory Column of King Merneptah, the magnificent Royal Regalia, and the Grand Atrium with Gift Shop.
