The Kheops Horizon Immersive Expedition has been designed to be as accurate as possible. The experience is the result of several years of research and data collected on site, in partnership with Peter Der Manuelian, Professor of Egyptology and his team at the Giza Project, Harvard University. We aim to ensure that all the information provided in the experiment is based on architectural, scientific and historical data.

Discover the most breathtaking immersive experience near you with Horizon of Khufu! Plunge into the heart of history through a unique virtual reality adventure, where past and present intertwine for an unforgettable experience.

The visit begins as the sun rises over the Giza Necropolis, the famous Egyptian site home to the three Great Pyramids. In their shadows lay the silhouettes of mastabas, the tombs of deceased monarchs’ inner circles and families. You are not alone in surveying these thousand-year-old lands. Along with a virtual guide and other visitors, you start off as a giant avatar, treading the eternal sand of the Giza Plateau to reach the majestic Sphinx before making your way to the foot of the Pyramid of Giza for a VIP visit at nightfall.
