Day 2 : Pyramids Tour & Fly to Luxor
Our guide will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo to start your visit to the great pyramids, which date back to 2400 years B.C. These pyramids include the Great Pyramids of Giza (Cheops, Chefren, and Mykerinus).
You will begin with the Pyramid of Khufu, probably the most famous because it's the largest pyramid in existence, reaching a height of 147 meters, and it took about 2,300,000 stones over the course of 20 years to build it.
Next, you will visit the Great Sphinx, the biggest statue in the world and the oldest known monumental sculpture. The Sphinx has the head of a man and the body of a lion and was built to protect the pyramids and deter tomb thieves.
Afterwards, you'll turn to the mysterious Valley Temple. The Valley Temple was used solely for the purpose of mummifying the bodies of many royalties and nobles.
Following your visit to the pyramids, enjoy lunch, and then conclude your Cairo tour with a visit to the Egyptian Museum. The Egyptian museum displays more than 120,000 genuine artifacts with origins ranging from Roman, Greek, and Arabic, including the Tutankhamun collection of treasures dating back more than 3,500 years.
After that, transfer to Cairo airport to catch a flight to Luxor, where you will check in at a 5-star hotel for an overnight stay.
