Overview

After dark the Giza plateau reopens for a projection and laser show that has been running, in updated form, since 1961. The Sphinx narrates the story of the plateau — Khufu, Khafre, Menkaure, the priests, the Napoleonic surveys — while the pyramids are lit in turn and images are projected across the limestone.

It is unapologetically theatrical and it works, especially with children. Shows run in a different language each night; we book you into the correct performance and include private transfers both ways, plus a seat in the covered central section rather than the cheap side rows.

Highlights

The pyramids and Sphinx floodlit after dark
Narration available in English, Arabic, French, German, Spanish and Italian
Central covered seating, not the side rows
Private hotel transfers included both ways
