Pyramids of Giza
and the Great Sphinx
Led by your Egyptologist, explore the most renowned
icons of Egypt: the Pyramids of Giza, the Solar Boat
Museum and the Great Sphinx, while also enjoying the
unique experience of a short camel ride. Learn about the
monumental importance of the three largest pyramids in
the sandy valley, the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid
of Kafhre and the Pyramid of Menkaura, as well as the
kings that each pyramid is dedicated to. Venture to the
Solar Boat Museum to experience the reconstructed Khufu
solar ship, the significance of which is still highly debated
to this day. Learn each side of the story before discovering
perhaps the only true rival to the pyramids when it comes
to ancient Egyptian architecture, the Great Sphinx. Uncover
the history of this massive landmark, the most famous and
well-known Sphinx in the world, which has been guarding
the Necropolis for centuries.
