Itinerary
Your adventure begins with a comfortable hotel pick-up in a private air-conditioned vehicle, where your friendly Egyptologist guide welcomes you and introduces you to the fascinating journey ahead.
Upon arrival at the Giza Plateau, you’ll be struck by the majesty of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, towering proudly for over 4,500 years. Your guide will share intriguing stories about its construction, secrets of the pharaohs, and why it is the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. You’ll then admire the Pyramid of Khafre with its preserved casing stones, and the smaller Pyramid of Menkaure, each with its own legends.
Now comes the highlight of your tour – your camel ride across the golden sands of Giza. Mount your camel, just as ancient travelers once did, and feel the rhythm of its steady steps carrying you through history. As you ride deeper into the desert, the pyramids stand tall in the background, offering perfect photo opportunities. The camel trek takes you to the panoramic viewpoint, where all three pyramids align dramatically—a breathtaking moment you’ll never forget.
After your desert ride, you’ll make your way to the Great Sphinx, guarding the plateau with its lion’s body and human face. Your guide will reveal the mysteries, legends, and symbolism behind this timeless monument.
Before heading back, you’ll have the optional opportunity to visit traditional Egyptian shops. Discover the art of papyrus making, explore fragrant Egyptian perfumes, admire handmade jewelry, and shop for world-famous Egyptian cotton—a perfect way to take a piece of Egypt home with you.
Finally, relax as your driver transfers you back to your hotel, carrying with you not just photos, but the unforgettable feeling of experiencing the Giza Plateau the way it was meant to be explored—on camel back, under the timeless Egyptian sky.
