Discover the enigmatic secrets of one of the most captivating civilizations in human history as you wander through the Giza Necropolis, where three of Egypt’s grandest pyramids were constructed by the kings and pharaohs of the Old Kingdom during ancient times.
This Tour to the Giza Pyramids and Meidum from Cairo offers you the opportunity to stand at the foot of the immense pyramid of King Cheops, known in ancient Egyptian as Khufu—a colossal structure built to serve as the final resting place for the pharaoh, who was not only the ruler of Upper and Lower Egypt but also revered as the son of the sun god, Amun Ra, in ancient Egyptian belief. Your private guide will share insights into Egypt's rich history, leading you through the pyramids to behold the Great Sphinx, the human-headed lion believed to represent King Chephren, and the Valley Temple, where the royal body was mummified.
Continue on a short 30-minute journey to view the step pyramid of Meidum, built for King Snefru, the founder of the 4th Dynasty over 4,700 years ago. Following your Cairo Day Tours, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a quality restaurant in Giza, before being transferred back to your hotel.
