Start your morning with breakfast at your hotel, where you will meet your private Egyptologist guide before departing by private air-conditioned vehicle to the Giza Plateau.

You will explore its grand entrance, monumental statues, courtyards, and beautifully preserved reliefs, including the famous Colonnade of Amenhotep III. The temple was also historically connected to Karnak by the approximately 2.7-kilometer-long Avenue of Sphinxes, used for religious processions during the annual Opet Festival.
