Stop 3
Menkaure’s Pyramid, the smallest of the three main pyramids at Giza, may be modest in size but not in significance. Built for Pharaoh Menkaure, it reflects a more refined architectural style and once had a stunning granite casing at its base. Its proportions and elegance give it a unique charm, offering a beautiful contrast to the massive scale of the other pyramids. Standing before it, you can truly appreciate the craftsmanship and symbolic power of ancient Egyptian royalty.
4
Stop 4
Khafre’s Pyramid stands out with its preserved limestone cap and powerful presence. It’s slightly smaller than the Great Pyramid but appears taller due to its elevated base.
5
Stop 5
The Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids of Giza — and the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. Built over 4,500 years ago using more than 2 million limestone blocks, it’s a masterpiece of engineering and ancient ambition. Standing at 146 meters when it was first completed, it held the record as the tallest human-made structure for over 3,800 years. A true marvel that leaves every visitor speechless.
6
The Valley Temple of Khafre is an ancient mortuary temple where the mummification process is believed to have taken place. Made of massive limestone and granite blocks, this well-preserved structure once connected to the Pyramid of Khafre and the Sphinx. Walking through its halls, you can almost feel the sacred rituals that took place here over 4,500 years ago.
7
Stop 7
The Great Sphinx of Giza, with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, is one of the most iconic monuments in the world. Carved from a single block of limestone, it stands guard over the Giza Plateau. Thought to represent Pharaoh Khafre, the Sphinx symbolizes strength, wisdom, and royal power. Its mysterious expression and enormous size — 73 meters long — continue to fascinate visitors and scholars alike.
