We start our tour at Cheops Pyramid, known simply as the 'Great Pyramid', once the tallest structure in the world and the oldest and finest of the three pyramids, before exploring Kephren's and Mykerinus' Pyramids. You'll also get the chance to enjoy a stunning panoramic view of all three pyramids and the Sphinx.
