A unique journey to the Egypt of the Pharaohs
Day breaks over the Giza necropolis, the famous Egyptian site that houses the pyramids of Khufu, Khephren and Menkaure.
In this immersive expedition, explore the largest and oldest pyramid on the Giza Plateau: Khufu. With your friends and family, you’ll discover areas previously closed to the public. Then it’s on to magical territory, with an emotional foray into the heart of Egyptian culture.
A visit like no other
You’ll venture off the traditional paths to discover new corridors and spaces, such as the Queen’s Chamber.
An effortless ascent of the pyramid provides a breathtaking view of the Giza Plateau, from where you can observe the mastabas: the tombs of those who were close to the deceased monarchs.
Aboard a solar boat, you’ll travel 2,500 years BC to observe an embalming ceremony, sail on the Nile and attend the funeral of King Khufu, who lies at the heart of the Great Pyramid.
But don’t worry, you won’t be alone as you explore these ancient lands: you’ll be accompanied by Mona, your guide, and a mysterious character…
Mona, your guide
Mona is a young Egyptologist who has just graduated and gives special tours of the pyramid of Khufu.
Proud and kind in her role as guide, she nonetheless feels very small in front of this thousand-year-old monument…
THE HORIZON OF KHUFU: AJOURNEY IN ANCIENT EGYPT
Embark on an immersive journey through space and time to explore Egypt’s Giza Pyramid, the resting place of Pharaoh Khufu, constructed over 4,500 years ago in the 4th Dynasty and until now a forbidden realm to the public! The experience allows players to physically move and interact within a shared virtual reality space, providing a deeply emotional and engaging dive into the heart of Egyptian culture.
"Horizon of Khufu is an extraordinary immersive experience that immerses you in the grandeur of the Giza site. This virtual journey opens doors to places that are not usually accessible, either geographically or historically"
