You'll have seen a thousand photographs of Giza's Pyramids by the time you finally get here, but nothing beats getting up close and personal with these ancient monuments. Egypt's most famed and feted structures, these ancient tombs of kings, guarded by the serene Sphinx, have wowed spectators for centuries. Today, they continue to work their magic on all who visit. No trip to Egypt is complete without a visit here. Towering incongruously over the edge of Cairo's suburban sprawl, these iconic monuments are a tribute to the might, power, and ambition of Egypt's Pharaonic rulers.
