Your exciting travel experience begins at Alexandria Port. A helpful Coral Travel representative will be waiting for you to transfer you in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle toward Cairo. Upon arrival at the stunning Giza Plateau, you will meet your expert tour guide to learn more about the history of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure. The ancient Egyptians employed advanced mathematical, geometric, and astronomical knowledge to construct the pyramids. The stones were cut with such astonishing precision that the gaps between them do not exceed a single millimeter, highlighting their remarkable engineering capabilities.
You will also see the majestic Sphinx, considered one of the world's most impressive sculptures. It features the body of a powerful, recumbent lion and a human head, standing approximately 66 feet tall. This magnificent statue measures over 240 feet in length and is adorned with a beautiful royal headdress. You will visit the Valley Temple of King Khafre, where a collection of unique and stunning statues of the king—crafted from green diorite and granite—was discovered. Now we will take some rest and let you enjoy the first delicious lunch meal at a local restaurant.
