Fabulous Experience - We rode out from Bandaras stables just outside the pyramid complex just before sundown. Our host was excellent and made us feel welcome and safe. Myself and my daughter took the track alongside the Giza area running parallel to the pyramids. It’s was a fabulous experience watching the sunsetting behind the plateau and we got some priceless moments captured by our guide. I would recommend 16.00 as best time to take ride when it’s still relatively warm. Highly recommend

Quads and Camels - We spent the day doing two activities. The first was the quad bikes which was fun! We then did the camel ride which was also enjoyable!

Amazing Camel Ride and Egyptian Cultural Experience - It was an amazing experience! The camel ride took us to spots for many scenic photos in front of the pyramids. My driver John was extremely knowledgeable and taught me a lot about Egyptian history and culture.

Giza Sunset camel ride - The camel ride was perfect in length, sunset photos and a great experience. Our driver was very knowledgable of Cairo. He provided multiple options and followed our wishes.

Nice experience - We got picked up by Raafat who was very friendly. We originally booked the tour for 5pm pickup to see the sunset. However the organizer changed it to 4pm and it never got really clear to us why and he also wanted to sell us more tours. So the communocation with the organisator was a bit difficult. We told Raafat that we want to see the sunset and he did everything to keep us entertained until the camelride. He was very friendly and we definetelty reccomend him. Next time I would contact him directly and skip the organizers. The camelride is outside the pyramids area but we were able to see the pyramids and take good pictures with the pyramids and the sunset.

Read description carefully - very misleading. - This is the correct review for the correct company. I triple checked. The description is unclear and misleading. There is no guide sharing information or tour of pyramids. It was not in the pyramid complex so the photos of camel rides right by the pyramids are misleading. Only one photos of three riders with fences behind is accurate. There was no bottled water. It was a walk in silence and a stop for photos. We wanted the sunset and booked for 5pm. Once booked the provider kept texting and calling and changed the time to 4pm. It was uncomfortable. At 4pm we were picked up and taken to an Egyptian cotton shop and left to buy scarves for the experience. - you can get these scarves for $1 dollar in the complex but here they were trying to charge around $25. Then tried to take us for drinks and said about going for food afterwards. We were driving around miles from the pyramids and felt very uncomfortable. Then we arrived on a side street and picked up on the roadside a “guide” with two camels for myself and my son. We then walked through streets for a while before going along the complex fence with the pyramids in the distance. We thought it was a tour around the pyramids. There was no option to pay extra to go around the pyramids. We were taken to the top of a sand dune surrounded by what felt like a local hang out with loads of locals galloping around on horses and quad bikes. The sun started to set but they turned us around before the sunset despite be clearly stating in all the texts that I wanted the sunset and they moved it forward. After they kept contacting me on whatsapp and I has to block them. Felt very uncomfortable. Also they asked for passport details which I am not sure why and not happy that they now have this considering the experience - no other experience we did asked for passport details Don’t book a tour and def not this one and go to the pyramid complex. Pay £700 egyptian pounds to get into the complex for the visitor centre and all the pyramids and sphinx. Then around the pyramids are loads of people with camels or horses for set £1000 egyptian pounds (£15 english rather than £30 we paid). This would be better.

Awful, simply awful. - Do not do this. Yes there was a camel. Never got to the pyramids just a trash strewn street. The driver tried numerous times to divert to stores. This is a hoax Viator should be ashamed to promote this.
