Enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast at your hotel before meeting your English-speaking tour guide who will accompany you to the Giza Plateau. Here, you will have the opportunity to explore the Great Giza Pyramid of King Cheops, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, as well as the Pyramids of Chephren and the smallest royal pyramid in the Necropolis, built by King Mycerinus. You will also see and learn about the Great Sphinx, a massive statue with the head of a human and the body of a lion, as well as the Valley Temple of King Chephren, which was built in front of the gigantic statue and served as a place for the mummification process.
After you visit the Giza Plateau, you will enjoy a delicious lunch at a high-quality restaurant in Cairo before heading to Islamic Cairo to experience the vibrant market and traditional tea-mint at El Fishawy or Layaly Al-Hussein, Cairo's oldest cafes in Khan El Khalili.
