Qué hacer en Pyramids of Giza & the Great Sphinx
When you think of Egypt, what comes to mind first? It’s hard to imagine anything other than the astounding magnitude of the Pyramids of Giza and the monumental Great Sphinx of Giza. These archaeological wonders are found at the Giza pyramid complex, also known as the Giza Necropolis or the Giza Plateau, approximately 13 km southwest of Cairo. Listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1979, the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx regularly draw in millions of curious tourists from around the world.
Egypt’s Pyramids of Giza are made up of 3 massive pyramids, the Pyramid of Menkaure, Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Khufu, the last also commonly being referred to simply as the Great Pyramid of Giza for its immense height. All were painstakingly built during the fourth dynasty of ancient Egypt for the ruling pharaohs at the time, hence their names. No one knows for sure exactly how they were built, but one thing’s for certain: the Pyramids of Giza continue to faithfully preserve the genuine essence of Egypt.
A veil of mystery also surrounds the towering Great Sphinx of Giza that stands guard over the tombs on the east side of the Giza pyramid complex. The world-famous limestone statue of a recumbent sphinx is one of the oldest, largest, and most recognisable sculptures in the world. Most believe the sculpture’s head is modelled after Egyptian pharaoh Khafre, although the nose was subsequently destroyed for unknown reasons. Nonetheless, the Great Sphinx remains a magnificent emblem of Egypt.

Reseñas Pyramids of Giza & the Great Sphinx
“Die Aktivitäten selbst waren super, jedoch wurden die Hin- und Rückflüge extrem schlecht kooridiniert. Am frühen Morgen fast 2h Wartezeit am Flughafen. Die Aktivitäten waren dann schon can um 16 Uhr abgeschlossen, der Rückflug war jedoch erst um 21 Uhr, obwohl es viele frühere Flüge gegeben hätte. Viel Zeit ging mit warten verloren, schade wenn man bedenkt, wie viel teuerer die Buchung mit TUI verglichen mit anderen Anbietern ausfällt.”
“Enjoyed file trip which was extra so not included. Got put on polish tour(we dont speak polish) after booking an English tour. We had no idea was happening we ended up going round museum on our own. Toilets in museum are not usable and won't even let you in unless you tip. Day felt really dragged out stop twice on way there! pyramids were the last on the list and after being picked up at 1am getting to pyramids at bout 3pm no one felt enthusiastic any more. You constantly get badgered by sellar”
“Très bien et très bon guide en françaisPar contre éviter ballade en calèche et le petit tour en bateau sur le Nil 25€ pour pas grand chose à voirLe musée du papyrus n'est pas un musée mais un magasin….”
“Fantastic trip and our Egyptologist Mohey was brilliant. The information he gave us was amazing! The only downside is that 2 hours in the museum is not enough, there's so much to see its more like a trip in itself. But what we did see was incredible. I would highly recommend this trip.”
