Giza pyramids

Experience the majesty of the Giza Plateau at sunrise or sunset with exclusive access before or after official hours, avoiding the crowds entirely. Accompanied by your expert guide, you’ll explore the Great Pyramid and Sphinx in near silence as the light shifts over the desert.

Built over 4,500 years ago as tombs for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, the pyramids were designed to help the kings ascend to the heavens. Khufu’s alone is made of more than two million limestone blocks, a staggering feat of engineering.

Nearby stands the enigmatic Sphinx, thought to represent King Khafre, its lion’s body guarding the pyramids for eternity. Once the site opens to the public, you’ll have the option to enter the Great Pyramid and take a camel ride across the sands.
