Giza Pyramids Complex

The Great Pyramid of Giza

The huge pyramid of Khufu is usually the first structure you see upon entering the Giza Plateau. It is renowned as the only remaining wonder of the ancient world.

Day 2: Visit the Abu Simbel Temple: You will have your Breakfast Boxes in the early morning, then check out of your accommodation and join your private tour guide for a visit to the magnificent Abu Simbel Temple.

Temples of Abu Simbel

The Abu Simbel temple, built in the reign of Ramses II (1292-1186BC) in 1200 BC, is a one-of-a-kind structure that represents the pinnacle of ancient Egyptian architecture. It is one of two temples dedicated to him and the home of the legendary Sun Festival, while the other is dedicated to his wife Queen Nefertari.

On your last day, you will have breakfast, check out of your accommodation, and go to the city of the sun to see some of the most valuable works of ancient Egyptian culture, beginning with:

The Kings’ Valley

Imagine a route through the center of a mountain filled with unimaginable riches and vibrant wall paintings inside huge tombs dating from Egypt’s New Kingdom (1570-1544 BC), with up to 36 tombs dating to renowned rulers like Tutankhamun, Ramses VI, Seti I, and others.

Temple of Hatshepsut

The temple of Queen Hatshepsut (1479-1458 BC), which was built in 1479 BC and is one of the best-preserved archaeological monuments in the world, is the greatest example of ancient Egyptian architecture.

Memnon’s Colossi

Throughout history, people have moved, shattered, and rebuilt the Colossi of Memnon several times.

They erected the statues in the likeness of Amenhotep III (1386-1350 BC) and transported them 700 kilometers from Cairo to Luxor to guard Thebes’ wealth.

They will serve lunch on an island accessible only by boat.
