Explore the biggest and oldest of the three pyramids, the Great Pyramid of Khufu constructed between 2580- 2560 BC. Once risen to a height of approximately 146 meters, this remarkable monument embodies the genius of engineering and architectural accuracy with which ancient Egypt was built
The Sphinx

Our guide will explain its symbolism, mysteries, and the famous Dream Stele of Thutmose IV, which narrates a legend of the young prince and the dead Sphinx.
Dinner cruise
During the evening, you can have one of the most unforgettable experiences of Cairo- a Nile River Dinner Cruise. Board a well-decorated floating restaurant and sail through the legendary Nile with the city lights glistening and sparkling around you.
