Solar Boat Museum (Khufu Ship) Tours and Activities

Many Giza Pyramids tours whizz round the site at speed. For a more in-depth experience, visit with a private guide on this door-to-door tour. Besides seeing the three main pyramids, the Queens’ Pyramids, the Valley Temple, and the Sphinx, clamber inside the Great Pyramid of Giza and visit Khufu’s burial chamber, then see his funeral barge in the Solar Boat Museum. Please note: All entrance fees are at your expense.

Enter the world of ancient Egypt’s pharaohs for a morning on a private visit to the Giza pyramids and Solar Boat Museum from Cairo. After admiring the pyramids, Sphinx, and Valley Temple and hearing their secrets from your Egyptologist guide, head inside the modern Solar Boat Museum. Gaze in awe at the prize exhibit: a reassembled wooden boat found buried near the Great Pyramid and probably used as a funerary barge. Round off your tour with a leisurely camel ride on the Saharan sands and a tasty Egyptian lunch.

Many visitors only see the outside of the Great Pyramids but on this private tour you can venture inside the Pyramid of Cheops. After, see the great Sphinx, the Valley Temple, enjoy a camel ride in the desert, and visit the solar boat museum to learn about what ancient Egyptians thought of the afterlife. Cap off your tour with a delicious Egyptian lunch before heading back to your hotel.
