This budget-friendly tour offers access to both the pyramids of Giza and the museum at reasonable prices.

You have an excellent chance to explore the most remarkable attractions in Egypt with our affordable tour of the Giza Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum. Visit the enormous edifices known as the Pyramids of Giza, constructed by the three most

famous pharaohs of Egypt during the Old Kingdom, particularly in the 4th dynasty. These rulers were descendants of King Snefru, who himself built three

pyramids, with two located in a different burial site in Dahshur. Pharaohs Cheops, Chephren, and Mycerinus built the three pyramids in the Giza necropolis in

alignment with three significant stars, a fact that continues to astonish contemporary scientists. Along with your visit to the Giza Pyramids, you will also explore

the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, which houses the largest assortment of ancient Egyptian artifacts all in one location. The museum, a remarkable structure itself,

was constructed in the early 20th century and is highly recommended as one of the top activities in Egypt. Our budget-friendly day tours in Cairo and throughout

Egypt make this experience accessible and affordable.

Giza Pyramids and Egyptian Museum tour Itinerary

A guide specializing in Egyptology from Egypt in Style will greet you in the morning at a designated time to begin your expedition to the Great Pyramids.

During this tour, you will visit one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the massive pyramid of King Cheops, along with the pyramids of King Khafra

(Chephren) and Mycrinus. The Giza Pyramids are famous for their impressive size and remarkable state of preservation.

Our day tours in Egypt delve into the fourth dynasty of the ancient kingdom, during which these ancient structures were built. You will be taken to Giza. You will encounter the Great Sphinx, a stone statue featuring the head of a pharaoh and the body of a lion. You'll also have the opportunity to explore Khafra's Valley of the Temples, which he built as a successor to Cheops. King Chephren, the younger brother of King Djedefre and a successor during the Pyramid era, established this temple to assist with the mummification process in ancient Egypt.

We will pause for a delightful Egyptian lunch before resuming our tour at the Egyptian Museum, situated in Tahrir Square, downtown Cairo.

The museum houses a wide array of Egyptian artifacts spanning 6,000 years. Guests can explore over 160,000 masterpieces across two floors, featuring the treasures of Tutankhamun as well as a vast collection of gold and jewelry that lay buried under the sand for more than 35 centuries until the New Kingdom tomb was uncovered in 1922 and showcased in the museum.

If you have some additional time, consider adding a visit to Coptic Cairo to your travel plans. You can see the Hanging Church, the Church of St. Sergius and Bacchus, which is among the oldest Jewish sites in the country, as well as the Roman fortress of Babylon. Before returning to your hotel, be sure to explore the Ben Ezra Synagogue and Khan El Khalili Bazaar, which is one of the oldest markets in the Middle East.
