Unveil Cairo's ancient Egyptian heritage and multicultural religious history in this private 8-hour tour. Visit the Giza Pyramids, ride a camel across the desert, witness the Sphinx, and explore the Valley Temple. Then discover Old Cairo's Babylon Fortress, Hanging Church, Ben Ezra Synagogue, and Church of St George. Conclude with a trip to the less-visited El Mokattam Mountain Cave Church.
The day begins at 8am when your private guide meets you in your hotel lobby and escorts you to your private air-conditioned minivan, complete with Wi-Fi, for the journey to the Giza Plateau. Visit the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and marvel at its majestic dimensions. Stroll up the plateau to admire all three pyramids together: they were built by Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. Enjoy a short camel ride through the desert, before exploring the Valley Temple of Khafre and admiring the mighty Sphinx.
