Ruins · Monuments · Historic Sites
Situated on the Nile riverfront, the city of Giza remains best known for its pyramid complex. The pyramids, accompanied by a plethora of ancient tombs and the imposing Great Sphinx, endure as the iconic symbol of ancient Egypt and the country's most famous landmarks. Although most tourists opt to stay in Central Cairo and visit the plateau on a day trip, a Giza holiday can be a good opportunity to take the time to explore the historic monuments without hassle and hurry. Quad biking, camelback rides, and pleasant cruises on the Nile are some of the other activities you can add to your Giza itinerary. Plan your visit to Giza and other destinations in Egypt using our Egypt trip planner.
