Ticketibg was pretty easy, although issuing the tickets lasted more than an hour, which didn't match the information sent, that tickets would have been processed within 30minutes. Otherwise all good, smooth process.

The Pyramid of Khafre

The Pyramid of Khafre, standing alongside the Great Pyramid, is slightly smaller but incorporates a casing of Tura limestone at its apex, giving it a distinctive appearance.

The Pyramid of Menkaure

The Pyramid of Menkaure, the smallest of the Giza pyramids, was constructed for Pharaoh Menkaure. Its unique design includes three subsidiary pyramids for royal women.

The Sphinx of Giza

The Great Sphinx of Giza is an enigmatic, colossal statue with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, believed to represent Khafre. Guarding the pyramids, the Sphinx symbolizes strength and wisdom.

Queen’s Pyramids

The Giza Plateau is also home to several smaller pyramids known as the Queen's Pyramids. These structures were built for the consorts and family members of the pharaohs.
