Meet with your Cairo Top Tours guide at the designated location as agreed upon and begin an extraordinary Wheelchair Accessible Tour to the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx. Accompanied by your personal tour guide and travelling in a suitable vehicle with a driver, you'll uncover fascinating insights that may be entirely new to you, even if you've read or watched documentaries about ancient Egyptian civilization.
This tour focuses on the Giza Necropolis, the most sacred site during Egypt's Old Kingdom, particularly during the 4th dynasty, built by descendants of King Snefru, who also commissioned pyramids in Dahshur. King Khufu, or Cheops, constructed the largest burial tomb ever, towering 146 meters high and with sides measuring 230 meters each. For nearly 3,600 years, it remained the tallest man-made structure on Earth until the construction of Lincoln Cathedral in 1072 A.D.
Your personal Egyptologist guide will provide intricate details as you stand before the Great Pyramid of Cheops and explore the pyramids of Chephren and Mycerinus. Chephren's pyramid boasts the most comprehensive funerary complex, including the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple where his mummified body was prepared for burial. The Sphinx, resembling strength and wisdom, is a colossal statue of a man-headed lion, measuring 73 meters in length and almost 23 meters in height. Historians once debated its origins but being within Khafra's pyramid complex provides strong evidence of its association with his reign. From the high plateau, capture breathtaking photos of the entire pyramid complex.
At the conclusion of your Giza Pyramids tour for disabled visitors, enjoy transfer back to your hotel or another chosen drop-off location.
