Guided Tour of the Giza Pyramids, the Egyptian Museum & the Khan El Khalili Bazaar

From the Magnificent Pyramids to a Hearty Lunch

Get picked up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza by your guide and enjoy the drive to the Pyramids of Giza. Look out the window and admire Egypt’s fantastic art deco, great shopping areas bustling with people, and great roads. A sense of awe is what you will feel as soon as you arrive at your destination and witness the beauty of the incredible pyramids. Listen to interesting historic facts about these pyramids like how each one, Cheops, Chephren & Mykerinos—corresponds to the kings for whom they were built. In addition, you will also visit the Sphinx, the majestic statue, the largest in the world, that stands as a guardian outside the funeral complex with its lion body and the head of King Chephren, from the 4th Dynasty. Your guide will then lead you to the Valley Temple, home to Pharaoh Khafre, built in the mid-to-late 26th century BC. It is built of limestone and faced with polished Aswan granite which still gives it a very refined look. Take a lunch break inside a local restaurant that will serve you a complete Egyptian meal.

After relishing a delicious meal, enter the Egyptian Museum which houses over 120,000 masterpieces, ranging from the pre-dynastic era to the Pharaonic and Greco-Roman periods. See and learn about the treasures of King Tutankhamun, the king of the 18th Dynasty.

Shopping on the Streets of Khan El Khalili Bazaar

No trip to Egypt would be complete without a visit to the Khan El Khalili Bazaar. The bazaar is what a typical market should be like. It is loud, crowded, colorful, and exciting—full of all kinds of goods and shiny baubles. Take home fresh spices of any variety, the best perfumes, and essential oils. The more you explore, the luckier you get at finding interesting pieces of antiques. The tour ends with you getting dropped off at your hotel.
