Begin at the last remaining Wonder of the Ancient World—the Great Pyramid of Giza. Consider the ingenious engineering it took to construct this 460-foot (140-m) tomb, which stood for over 3,500 years as the world's tallest man-made structure. The neighbouring Sphinx stands guard nearby. Be sure to quiz your guide on this enigmatic monument's origins and back storey.

Enter the Egyptian Antiquities Museum to examine cultural riches and stroll through 6,000 years of history. Observe the legendary gold mask of Tutankhamun, the star attraction among the 120,000 treasures.

Following lunch, practice your bartering skills in the Khan el-Khalili bazaar, a maze of stall holders vying for business. Savour smells of exotic perfumes and spices, watch local craftsmen at work, and benefit from your local guide’s expertise about which stalls the locals shop at.
