- The Giza Plateau: Confronting Immortality
The afternoon brings you to the moment you've been waiting for: the Giza Plateau. Stand in the shadow of the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World—the majestic Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus. Feel the weight of 4,500 years of history as you capture stunning photos and learn the incredible engineering feats behind their construction.
The Enigmatic Sphinx and Sacred Valley Temple
Your journey continues to the mythical Great Sphinx, the steadfast guardian of the plateau with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh. Explore the nearby Valley Temple, an ancient marvel of stone where history whispers from every corner, believed to be the site of sacred mummification rituals.
- A Treasure Hunt for Memories
No adventure is complete without a memento. We'll make a stop at a local market, where you can browse for unique souvenirs—from handcrafted papyrus and alabaster statues to intricate jewelry—to bring a piece of Egypt back home.
Homeward Bound
