- Pyramids of Giza - The tour guide will pick guests up from their hotel to enjoy a day exploring the pyramids. Among Egypt’s top tourist attractions, the Pyramids of Giza are a must-see. These are the three main pyramids of Egypt, constructed during the 4th Dynasty (around 2550 B.C). Built as tombs for kings and queens, having a pyramid was a prestigious honor in the Old and Middle Kingdoms. Today, Egypt boasts over 93 pyramids, with the most renowned located at Giza. Let’s embark on a tour around the pyramids’ site to appreciate the area’s grandeur.
- Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) - The renowned Great Pyramid of Khufu is the largest, tallest, and most well-preserved pyramid in Egypt. It was recognized as one of the “Seven Wonders of the Ancient World” and remains the only one still standing. For 4,300 years, it was the tallest structure on earth until the Eiffel Tower was built in 1889. Constructed entirely of limestone, Khufu’s Pyramid is an architectural marvel, containing approximately 1,300,000 blocks weighing between 2.5 and 15 tons. Its square base spans 13 acres, with sides measuring about 230m (755ft). The pyramid’s four sides align precisely with the cardinal points and have an angle of 52 degrees.
- Khafre’s Pyramid - Known as the 2nd Pyramid, Khafre’s Pyramid is easily identified by the remaining layers of its original casing stones near the top. Positioned on a higher part of the plateau, it appears taller than the Great Pyramid, though it is actually 136m (446 ft) tall, with sides of 214.5m (704ft), covering a surface area of 11 acres and having an angle of 53 degrees. Over time, it has lost some height, originally standing at 143.5m (471ft).
- Menkaure Pyramid - Built by Khafre’s son, Menkaure, this is the smallest of the three main pyramids on the Giza Plateau. Initially 65.5m (215ft) tall, it now stands at 62m (203ft), with sides measuring 105m (344ft) and an angle of 51.3 degrees. It is believed that the pyramid was expanded during construction, becoming larger than initially planned. The original smaller pyramid featured a simple descending corridor and burial chamber, but with its enlargement, a new corridor with three portcullises and a small paneled chamber was added. Later, another burial chamber and a storeroom were included at a lower level. Like its neighbors, this pyramid has a north-facing entrance.
- Great Sphinx - The Great Sphinx, known to the ancients as “Shesep Ankh” or “the living image,” is one of history’s most iconic structures. The Sphinx is synonymous with Egypt and the Giza Plateau. Carved from soft sandstone, it might have eroded long ago if not for being buried in sand for extended periods. The body measures 60m (200ft) in length and 20m (65ft) in height. Its face is 4m (13ft) wide, with eyes 2m (6ft) high. Facing the rising sun, it was so revered by the ancients that they constructed a temple in front of it.
- The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - The Egyptian Museum is the oldest archaeological museum in the Middle East and houses the world’s largest collection of Pharaonic antiquities. The museum’s extensive collection ranges from the Predynastic Period to the Greco-Roman Era. The building’s architect was chosen through an international competition in 1895, the first of its kind, won by French architect Marcel Dourgnon. Inaugurated in 1902 by Khedive Abbas Helmy II, the museum is a historic landmark in downtown Cairo, home to some of the world’s most magnificent ancient masterpieces.
