More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You kick up a ribbon of ochre sand and the edges of the Pyramids slide into your peripheral vision—stone and sky stitched together by a dusting of heat. Guides line up the machines at the edge of the plateau, brief you, and then the desert takes you: one hour of throttle, silent space, and panoramic views few visitors see from the ground.
