ABOUT THIS TRIP

This evening visit handles the awkward part of the Giza Sound & Light Show: matching hotel transfers and admission to the official performance time. Your private driver takes you to the Sphinx-side entrance, waits during the show and returns you directly afterward.

The performance uses narration, music and projected light across the real pyramids and Sphinx. Because schedules and performance languages change through the year, we confirm the exact pick-up time and available language for your date after booking.
