Package holiday to Giza

Giza is located on the western bank of the Nile right next to Cairo and is home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World — the only one that still exists. The Pyramids of Giza have been the symbol of Egypt for over 4,500 years and are among the most impressive structures in human history.

The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the largest of the three structures, originally standing at 146 meters, and was the tallest building in the world for over 3,800 years. Over 2.3 million stone blocks, averaging 2.5 tons each, were used in its construction — how exactly this was achieved remains unclear to this day. Visitors can enter the interior of the pyramid through a narrow, ascending passage.

The Great Sphinx, a 73-meter long and 20-meter high limestone figure with a human head and lion's body, has been guarding the plateau for over 4,500 years. Its missing nose is one of archaeology's greatest mysteries — contrary to popular myths, it was not Napoleon who shot it off.

The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), opening in 2024 and only 2 km from the pyramids, is the largest archaeological museum in the world. It houses over 100,000 artifacts, including the complete burial goods of Tutankhamun with the famous golden death mask.

The Sound-and-Light Show at the pyramids narrates the story of ancient Egypt in the evening with projected light on the pyramids and the Sphinx — an atmospheric experience. Camel rides in the desert sand against the backdrop of the pyramids are a classic postcard motif.

Giza particularly impresses with fascinating culture. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
