This half-day guided tour lasts about four hours and includes transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle with pickup and drop-off at your accommodation in Cairo or Giza. The tour begins with a visit to the three major pyramids where an Egyptologist guide explains their history and significance. Next, the group stops at the Panoramic Viewpoint for a wide view of the plateau and an optional camel ride around the area is available at an extra cost. Then the tour proceeds to the Great Sphinx of Giza, where visitors have time to take photos and learn about this monument with the head of a man and the body of a lion. The final stop is the Valley Temple of Khafre, where ancient rituals were performed. The guide shares information about the temple before the tour ends with a return transfer to the hotel or chosen location in Cairo or Giza.
