Day 4 - Great Pyramids and the Sphinx
After breakfast we set out on a full day of touring the
extraordinary pyramids, the city of Cairo and the Great Egyptian
Museum. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the most well-known - the
oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one
to have survived modernity, remaining largely intact.
Our Egyptologist guide shares their knowledge of this
spectacular tomb, and about the exquisite Great Sphinx - one of the
most recognisable statues in the world - which stands next to the
pyramids it was built to protect. Our tour includes a visit to the
new Great Egyptian Museum, whose long-anticipated opening is
expected in 2023. The archaeological museum is set to be the
largest in the world and will house important artifacts of ancient
Egypt - in particular, the entire Tutankhamun collection.
