• The Giza Pyramids Complex, located on the Giza Plateau, has a rich history dating back over 4000 years. This historic site consists of three main pyramids, six smaller pyramids, the iconic Great Sphinx, and the Valley Temple. These awe-inspiring structures were built to facilitate the ascension to the heavens, as the ancient Egyptians believed in connecting with their gods and preserving their legacy for eternity.
• The Great Pyramid, an architectural marvel of ancient Egypt, is one of recorded history's most enduring and monumental structures. Commissioned by King Khufu and completed around 2580 BC, this edifice predates modern civilisation by over 4500 years. Crafted from an astounding 2,300,000 pieces of limestone, this colossal monument rises to a staggering height of 147 meters (481 feet), reigning as the world's tallest structure for an astonishing 3800 years until the construction of the Lincoln Cathedral in 1311. Its awe-inspiring stature and mysterious interior have captivated the human imagination, giving rise to intriguing and enigmatic theories surrounding its construction and purpose.
• The Great Sphinx, standing at a towering height of 73 meters (240 feet) and a length of 19 meters (66 feet), is a captivating and enigmatic statue. This ancient wonder takes the form of a mythical being known as the Sphinx, featuring the body of a majestic lion and the head of a wise and powerful man, believed to represent King Khafre. The Great Sphinx has served as a profound wellspring of fascination and inspiration for countless wanderers, writers, and voyagers throughout history, and its allure persists today amidst the lingering veil of mystery cloaking its existence.
• The Valley Temple is a remarkable site where the ancient and fascinating mummification process occurred during the Old Kingdom of Egypt. This well-preserved structure, constructed entirely from limestone and granite, is a testament to the ancient Egyptian civilisation's advanced architectural and engineering skills. The temple also boasts stunning diorite statues of Chephren, adding an extra layer of magnificence to this historical site.

This awe-inspiring monument houses an unrivalled collection of celestial creations, meticulously crafted over 5000 years of continuous innovation and boundless artistic vision.

• Prepare for a fantastic gastronomic journey and an enchanting lunch at a charming local restaurant in Cairo. After that, discover the heart of Cairo with a knowledgeable tour guide. Your adventure kicks off with a visit to the renowned Egyptian Museum. This timeless treasure trove houses a remarkable collection of ancient artefacts that unveil the captivating history of Egypt. The museum, built in 1901AD, stands as a testament to Egypt's rich heritage, nestled in the bustling heart of Cairo. It's going to be an adventure you won't forget!
• After a day of adventure, sightseeing, and exploration in Cairo, you'll board your flight to Aswan. Once you arrive, you can settle in at a comfortable hotel for the night.
• On your second day in Aswan, wake up to the gentle morning light and savour a delightful breakfast that will energize you for the day ahead. Check out and prepare to rendezvous with your knowledgeable guide as you immerse yourself in the enchanting ambience of this picturesque city.
• Your exploration will include visits to iconic landmarks such as the awe-inspiring High Dam.
• The High Dam stands as a testament to the modern engineering prowess of the city of Aswan. Constructed between 1960 and 1970 during the presidency of Gamal Abdel Nasser, this monumental structure was a collaborative effort with the Moscow-based Hydro Project Institute. Its purpose was to gain better control over the Nile's annual flooding, harness hydroelectric power, and significantly increase water storage for agricultural irrigation in the vast reservoir, Lake Nasser.
• The Unfinished Obelisk is a remarkable tale of ambitious construction that regrettably never reached its completion. Commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut (1508-1458 BC) to adorn the entrance of the Karnak temple, it bore the name "Tekhenu," signifying "to pierce the sky." This monumental structure provides insight into ancient Egypt's meticulous process of crafting obelisks. Astonishingly, it was intended to reach a towering height of 42 meters and weighed a staggering 1200 tons.
• Tragically, the obelisk suffered a significant crack during its construction, which forced it to remain unfinished at its original site until today.
• You will savour a delicious meal at a charming local restaurant in Aswan during lunchtime. Following this delightful experience, you'll embark on a fascinating journey to visit the Philae Temple. Nestled in the heart of Aswan, Philae Temple is steeped in myth, allure, and charm. One of its most famous legends is the "Myth of Osiris," which tells the story of Osiris, the husband of Isis, who his brother murdered Set out of pure envy and hatred. However, Osiris is later resurrected to become the ruler of the underworld. Set is eventually defeated by Isis and Osiris' son, Horus, the sky god, marking the end of an era of injustice and tyranny. In the 1960s, the temple was relocated to the island of Agilkia as part of a UNESCO-led rescue mission following the construction of the Aswan High Dam.
• After immersing yourself in the captivating historical sites of Aswan, you will be escorted to Aswan Airport to catch the flight to Cairo, where you will spend the night.
• On the last day of your incredible journey in Egypt, you will savour a delicious breakfast, taking in the sights and sounds of this amazing country for the final time. Following this, you will go to Cairo airport, reflecting on the beautiful memories you've created during your vacation before commencing your safe journey back home.
