Your guide for the day will pick you up and begin your guided
tour in Giza to visit the
legendary majestic
Pyramids of Cheops, Chefren and Mykerionos
- also known as the
Great Pyramids of Giza.
You will see firsthand why these spectacular man-made monuments
are known as one of the seven wonders of the world. While
visiting the Pyramids, this is a perfect time to ride a camel
and capture your experience in a photograph!
When we finish
exploring the Great Pyramids our next stop is a visit to the
Sphinx
monument; guarding
the royal burial chambers and temple of Cheops.
NOTE:
Before going to the Egyptian museum this is the best time to
take a break for lunch (not included in price) or visit one of
the following (included in tour price): 1)
Papyrus Gallery,
2)
Gold Factory
or 3)
Perfume Factory.
In the afternoon we will visit the
Egyptian museum
of antiquities, which was established in 1902 near the city
center in Cairo. On display is a rare collection of 5000 years
of art — the largest most precious collection of Egyptian art in
the world. Over 250,000 genuine artifacts are presented,
including an exhibit dedicated to the
Tut-Ankh-Amon
collection of treasures, gold, and jewelry, as it was enclosed
in his tomb for over 3,500 years before it was discovered in the
1920’s when his tomb was excavated.
