• The Valley Temple: Roam freely around the Valley Temple of Khafre, ancient causeways, and smaller tombs scattered across the Giza necropolis.

• Photography: Snap photographs of classic Egyptian scenery with the Great Pyramids, camels, and the iconic Great Sphinx against the desert background.

• Upgrades: Choose variants that include entry inside the Great Pyramid, entry inside both the Great Pyramid (Khufu) and Menkaure Pyramid, or an English-guided half-day tour with round-trip hotel transfers from Cairo or Giza.
