Golavita travel expert tour guide will be waiting with your name on a sign at Port Said Port to start your full-day tour of Cairo attractions such as the Giza Pyramids. You will start your shore excursion tour with one of the seven wonders, the Pyramids of Giza.
The Pyramids of Giza on the Giza plateau are home to the famous three Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure from the 4th Dynasty, Old Kingdom. These mind-blowing constructions still amazed the historian about their impossible perfection. Moreover, the relationship between the Pyramids and the Orion Belt still needs more studies.
The Great Pyramid of Cheops is the only surviving wonder of the old wonder. Originally, it was 146 m but now it's only 137 m in height and about 7 million tons in weight. The Great Pyramid includes 3 small Queen Pyramids, Tombs of Pyramid builders, a Purification temple, and 5 boat Pits including the Cheops Solat Boat now in the Grand Egyptian Museum.
A lot of tombs were discovered in 1990 and later in 2009 for the builders of the Pyramid and seems they were for those who died during the construction. One of the most beautiful discovered tombs was for a couple, Ptah-shepsesu and his wife, with three burial shafts in the tomb. These tombs provide valuable information about the daily life of the low-class people.
This temple is part of the Pyramid’s complex and seems it was used for Mummification or at least performance the Opening of the Mouth rituals. Chephren Valley temple is the best-preserved one in Egypt right now.
The famous Giza Sphinx is a huge statue with a human head and lion body measures 73 meters long and 20 meters in height. Between the paws of the Great Sphinx, you can see the Dream Stele for prince Thutmose IV from the 18th Dynasty, New Kingdom.
Lunch: You will enjoy your lunch at the highest point on the Giza plateau where you can see the 9 Pyramids align. Enjoy the great view while having your coffee and later on, you will enjoy the Camel ride for half an hour down to Menkaure Pyramid.
Anything is possible! We know you. Your desires are extraordinary and you want Egypt vacations as you wish.
