Private Giza Pyramids & Sphinx Tour with Camel Ride and Lunch

The Pyramids of Giza, located on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt, are one of the most iconic and enduring symbols of ancient civilization. Constructed over 4,500 years ago during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, these monumental structures were built as tombs for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. The largest and most famous of the three pyramids is the Great Pyramid of Khufu, also known as the Pyramid of Cheops, standing approximately 146 meters (481 feet) tall. These incredible structures, made primarily of limestone and granite blocks, continue to awe and inspire visitors with their immense scale, precise engineering, and enduring mysteries, including the methods of their construction and the significance of their alignments with celestial bodies. The Pyramids of Giza remain a testament to the ingenuity, ambition, and advanced civilization of ancient Egypt.

The Great Sphinx of Giza, situated near the Pyramids of Giza on the west bank of the Nile River, is a colossal limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a human, believed to represent the pharaoh Khafre. Carved during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, likely around 2500 BCE, it stands as one of the largest and oldest monumental sculptures in the world. Measuring about 20 meters (66 feet) in height and 73 meters (240 feet) in length, the Sphinx captivates with its enigmatic expression and mysterious aura.

Kings held a unique position in Egyptian society. Somewhere between human and divine, they were believed to have been chosen by the gods themselves to serve as their mediators on earth. Because of this, it was in everyone’s interest to keep the king’s majesty intact even after his death, when he was believed to become Osiris, god of the dead. The new pharaoh, in turn, became Horus, the falcon-god who served as the protector of the sun god, Ra.The pyramid’s smooth, angled sides symbolized the rays of the sun and were designed to help the king’s soul ascend to heaven and join the gods, particularly the sun god Ra. Ancient Egyptians believed that when the king died, part of his spirit (known as “ka”) remained with his body. To properly care for his spirit, the corpse was mummified, and everything the king would need in the afterlife was buried with him, including gold vessels, food, furniture, and other offerings. The pyramids became the focus of a cult of the dead king that was supposed to continue well after his death. Their riches would provide not only for him but also for the relatives, officials, and priests who were buried near him.Camel Rides and Echoes of AntiquityExperience the Giza sands from a unique perspective – atop a camel!
