Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu)
The Pyramid of Khufu (also known as the Great Pyramid of Giza or the Pyramid of Cheops) is the oldest and largest of the three main pyramids in the Giza complex. Built around 2560 BCE as a tomb for the Fourth Dynasty Pharaoh Khufu, it stood as the world's tallest man-made structure for over 3,800 years.
20 minutes
4
Khafre's Pyramid
The Pyramid of Khafre (also known as the Pyramid of Chephren) is the second-tallest and second-largest of the Ancient Egyptian Pyramids of Giza. Built for Pharaoh Khafre around 2570 BCE, it is often mistaken for the Great Pyramid because it sits on a higher pedestal of bedrock, making it appear taller.
20 minutes
5
Menkaure Pyramid
The Pyramid of Menkaure (also spelled Mykerinos) is the smallest of the three main pyramids of Giza, but it is often considered the most architecturally complex. Built for the Pharaoh Menkaure around 2510 BCE, it stands as a unique monument to the transition of the Old Kingdom.

Valley Temple of Khafre
The Valley Temple of Khafre is one of the most remarkably well-preserved buildings from Egypt’s Old Kingdom (c. 2570 BCE). Located just a few steps from the Great Sphinx, it served as the grand entrance to Pharaoh Khafre’s funerary complex.
30 minutes

Great Sphinx
The Great Sphinx of Giza is one of the world's most iconic monuments, carved directly from a single ridge of limestone on the Giza Plateau. Representing a reclining lion with a human head—widely believed to be Pharaoh Khafre—it has stood guard over the necropolis for over 4,500 years.

Nile River Valley
Step away from the city’s roar and into the gentle rhythm of the Nile. Our traditional Felucca rides offer a 'slow-motion' escape where the only engine is the wind and the only sound is the water against the wood. Whether it’s a romantic date under the Cairo skyline or a quiet moment of reflection, this is the Nile exactly as it has been experienced for thousands of years. Unplug, unwind, and watch the sun paint the city in gold."

Bazar Khan El-Khalili
Khan el-Khalili is a legendary open-air bazaar in the heart of Islamic Cairo and one of the oldest commercial hubs in the world. Established in 1382, this sprawling market is a sensory overload of narrow medieval alleys, aromatic spices, and centuries-old craftsmanship.
