Discover ancient Egypt’s most iconic landmarks on our Giza Pyramids and Sphinx tour, designed for travelers who want to see the highlights of Cairo in limited time. Explore the legendary pyramids and the Great Sphinx with a private Egyptologist guide who brings the history and stories of ancient Egypt to life.
This half-day tour from Cairo includes hotel pickup and private, air-conditioned transportation, making your visit easy from start to finish. You’ll see the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, and the impressive Great Sphinx.
As one of our Egypt Day Tours, this Cairo day tour is well suited to travelers with limited time. Choose Aten Tours for a smooth journey through Giza.
Your private Giza Pyramids and Sphinx tour starts with hotel pickup from your Cairo hotel. After pickup, you head straight to Giza in a private vehicle with no other passengers.
You spend the first stretch at the pyramids themselves, with your Egyptologist guide, walking between Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure at your own pace, with stops for the panoramic viewpoint and photos. If you want a camel ride around the pyramids, tell your guide; it is optional, at an extra cost.
From there, you continue to the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple of Khafre, the last stop before heading back. You’re dropped back at your hotel once the plateau visit wraps up, roughly four hours after pickup.
