Giza Pyramids and Sphinx Guided Tour with Hotel Transfers

Your licensed guide picks you up from your Cairo or Giza hotel and drives you to the Giza Plateau to begin your pyramids and desert tour.

Ride an ATV across the sand with views of the pyramids, then switch to a gentle camel trek that lets you absorb the desert around you.

Walk around the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx with your guide, hear Egypt's history brought to life, and enjoy an optional lunch nearby.

Choose between a package that includes pyramids entry tickets and lunch, or a tour that focuses on guiding, ATV riding, and camel time only.
