Day Tour to Giza Pyramids with Felucca Ride

Upon your arrival, a professional representative from Osha Tours will be there to meet you at Sokhna Port and commence your guided tour of the pyramids in Giza. You will first start by taking a close look at the three glorious pyramids, which are among Egypt’s attractions and were the inspiration behind the erection of this great architecture. The Great Pyramid of Cheops, the largest of the three, consists of about 2,300,000 granite stones, each weighing an average of 2.5 tons.

Following that, you will tour the pyramid of King Chephren, the son of Cheops, who built the second pyramid. This pyramid is perceived to be taller than the other pyramids in Giza, thanks to its more slanting faces and the optical illusion that it is the biggest one, as opposed to the other pyramids built by his father. As part of your Giza Pyramids tour, you will also proceed to the pyramid of King Mycerinus, who almost had his name rescued from the red ochre staining the containment of the burial chamber designated for one of the subsidiary pyramids. The artifacts found in the area suggest that the sculptors were extremely educated. You will also have a chance to view the Great Sphinx, complete with a lion's body and a human head, and the Valley Temple, which was used for the Pharaoh's body preparation through mummification.

There is also a Felucca ride that can be organized for those who wish to appreciate the aesthetics and atmosphere of the Nile for one hour. This surely will be an exciting and enjoyable way to spend the day, and we guarantee that you will enjoy it.

The Nile River is deep-rooted in the cultural and historical context of Egypt. It means existence and was worshipped by the ancient people as they thought the gods resided within Her. They gave the water presents asking for long age and more productive crops. The River Nile still plays a big role even in modern times and thus we urge you to look at our Egypt shore excursions to take out.
