The expert tour guide assigned to you will meet you inside your hotel or any preferred location of yours before heading towards the historic Abdeen Palace. Once the official residence of the Egyptian royal family, nowadays the palace is the office and residence of the President of Egypt. The palace located on top of Qasr el-Nil Street in Downtown Cairo gives great insights into the royal history of Egypt.
Then, your journey will head towards the dramatic Pyramids and Great Sphinx of Giza. You will enter one of the seven ancient wonders wedged between the massive Pyramid of King Cheops, the Pyramid of Khafra (Chefren), and the Pyramid of Mycerinus to explore the sights. You will also see the Great Sphinx together with its awe-inspiring lion’s head and body engraving – a statue depicting a man with the head of a lion, which is sculpted from the Giza rock.
Later, visit the Valley Temple of Khafra which was also constructed for the embalming of this famous Pharaoh. This one was incorporated in the burial complex of Chephren, an illustrious King of Egypt from the age of the pyramids.
After the adventure, you will be taken back to your hotel or any drop-off point that you had chosen earlier on. Should you wish to put off the tour for a while, perhaps to fill your stomach with some food, your guide will also be able to help you with the best places to eat around the city of Cairo.
