The largest pyramid found in Egypt is Khufu, (Cheops in Greek), or The Great Pyramid. It measures 755 feet square at its base and its present height is 449 feet. Over the years it has lost 33 feet of its original height. Its volume is about 88 million cubic feet.

Its original entrance was on the north side and its corridors were aligned with the circumpolar stars to insure the Pharaohs immortality. Its present entrance, lower than the original, is linked to a passageway to the "real" access corridor.

When traveling in Egypt, we learned that you can make reservations for air travel and hotels online and then make your reservations through your hotels Concierge Services Department for tours of the area.

This has proven to be safe and secure for us, on our tours of Egypt, as well as in other parts of the world.

It also has given us a personal tour at our own pace instead of one of those rushed crowded group tours. Much more fun!

We have placed links to Priceline and to InterContinental Hotels Group on this page since they have given us our best deals in Egypt.
