The experience

Your day starts with hotel pickup and a drive to the Giza Pyramids, where your private Egyptologist guide walks you through the Great Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure and the Great Sphinx. You'll also visit Khafre's Valley Temple before heading to the panorama area: the vantage point where all three pyramids line up behind you for photographs. The guide explains the stories and engineering behind each structure as you move through the site.

After the pyramids, you continue to the Grand Egyptian Museum, home to the largest collection of Egyptian antiquities in the world. Here you see the golden treasures of Tutankhamun, the famous Solar Boat, and thousands of other artifacts that piece together ancient Egypt's civilization. Your guide remains with you to contextualize what you're standing in front of, so the objects connect to the monuments you visited that morning.

The tour includes a private air-conditioned vehicle for all transfers, a free bottle of water during the day, and return transport to your hotel. Your guide speaks English, Spanish, or German depending on your choice at checkout. Children from age 6 are welcome, and the sites are wheelchair accessible.
