The Pyramids of Giza:
We considered Giza Plateau is one of the most enduring prehistoric monuments in the world.

It houses the three great pyramids (those of Cheops, Khafre and Menkaure) and at least six others, as well as several other important monuments, including the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple.

The Great Pyramid:
The oldest and largest of the pyramids were built by the 4th-Dynasty Khufu (2589-66BC).

It is estimated to contain over two million blocks of stone weighing on average around 2.5 tonnes, with some stones at the base weighing as much as 15 tonnes. Until the 19th century, it was the tallest building in the world.

The Great Sphinx:
Giza Sphinx carved from an outcrop of natural rock, augmented by shaped blocks around the base, added during repeated renovations from the 18th Dynasty onwards.

The Valley Temple:
Khafre’s Valley Temple stood on a quay and served as a gateway to the pyramid, connected by a long, mostly covered, causeway.
Buried in the sand, this was discovered by Auguste Mariette in 1852 and traces of it can still be seen today.

Decorative Called a “Friday Mosque”, its open-motif arch air courtyard is large enough to hold the whole male congregation of the district for prayers on the holiest day of the week. Built entirely of mudbrick, the mosque is surrounded by an outer courtyard, which was meant to act like a moat and keep the secular city at bay. This and its curious spiral minaret make it unique in Egypt.

Lastly, you will visit Khan El Khalili, at Khan al-Khalili it is home to the coppersmiths’ market and an assortment of workshops. Further along are shops selling a miscellany of coffee-house equipment such as tin-topped tables and sheeshas, before finishing with the garlic and onion stalls near Bab al-Futuh.

There is more history in every square meter in this terrific temple which was constructed about 1400 BCE and unlike the rest of the temples which were constructed in ancient Egypt, it wasn’t dedicated to any cult god or any deified king in death but it was dedicated to the rejuvenation of kingship where many kings were crowned and the best time to visit this magical Temple is at night.

The tour will start at the West Bank where you will visit the

Valley of the Kings

The remote, barren Valley of the Kings was the necropolis of the New Kingdom pharaohs. By digging their tombs deep into the Theban Hills, pharaohs from Tuthmosis I (c.1500 BC) on hoped to stop robbers stealing the priceless possessions buried with them.

But for all that, the structures themselves remain, their dramatic corridors and burial chambers stunningly adorned with symbolic accounts of the journey through the underworld and ritual paintings to assist the pharaohs in the afterlife.

and many different amazing Ancient Temple Monuments. In the Valley of the kings you will be taken back in time entering the tombs of the Pharaoh’s that contain painted pillars and walls.

Temple of Queen Hatshepsut

Against its stark mountainous backdrop, the partly rock-hewn Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir al-Bahri is a breathtaking sight. It was designed by Queen Hatshepsut’s architect Senenmut in the 18th Dynasty and is an extraordinary monument which rises from the desert plain in a series of imposing terraces.

The temple was damaged by Ramses II and his successors, and Christians later turned it into a monastery (hence the name Deir al-Bahri, which means “Northern Monastery”). However, the ongoing excavation of the site continues to reveal much exquisite decoration. Adjacent to the main temple are the ruins of the much older Temple of Montuhotep II, the ruler of the 11th Dynasty who managed to unite Egypt, and the 18th-Dynasty Temple of Tuthmosis III.

Then to see the Colossi of Memnon

Soaring 18 m (60 ft) into the sky, the two enthroned statues of Amenhotep III are the first monuments most visitors see on arriving in the West Bank.

They originally guarded Amenhotep’s mortuary temple – thought to have been the largest ever built in Egypt -which was plundered for building material by later pharaohs and gradually destroyed by the annual floods.

All that remains are the two faceless colossi, which, despite the ravages of time, are an impressive sight.
