Visiting Pyramids with Horse-Drawn Carriage

The Horse-Drawn Carriage Tour at the Pyramids is available every day from 07:00 AM to 16:00 PM, it starts from any hotel in Cairo city. In the past, the carriage was the only means of transportation that the Egyptians depended on, but it began to recede with the presence of other means of transportation, so gradually turned into a means of entertainment, especially in tourist areas.

Doing this tour, you will get the experience of visiting the Pyramids of Giza, enjoying with the views and weather of Pyramids desert and learn about the history of the pyramids in Egypt.

Riding Cabriolet at The Pyramids of Giza

In our tour we will use with you a cabriolet, also called Hantor by locals. It is a light horse-drawn vehicle, with two wheels pulled by a single horse. Some carriages are covered by a folding hood that can protect from sun or rain its two occupants while others are not covered at all. It is a bit different than the horse-drawn vehicle which is pulled by more than one horse. These vehicles typically had two or four wheels and were used to carry passengers in past.

Let's embark on a traditional horse-drawn carriage of 2 wheels and make a tour around the Great Pyramids of Giza.

The highlights of the tour are:
- The Great Pyramid of Cheops
- Smaller pyramid of Khafre
- The smallest pyramid of Menkaure
- Three tiny pyramids-tombs of queens
- Amazing point of view of Giza plateau with all 6 pyramids
