Capture numerous memorable photos in this area and enjoy a camel ride for about half an hour around the pyramid area, taking in the breathtaking views of this magnificent site and its surroundings. - Pyramids of Giza - Then, hop on a quad bike to explore the majestic Pyramids up close. Ride around the pyramids and admire the splendor of the Pyramids of Cheops, Mykerinus, and Chephren from outside the Pyramid Area.
Afterward, the guide will take you to a local Egyptian restaurant to savor the most delicious and flavorful dishes.

This segment of the tour will last approximately 2 hours.

Comprehensive pyramid tour - If you're short on time and want to see not only the pyramids in Giza, but also the wonderful sites in Saqqara and Dahshur, this is your tour. It's well organised, they take care of everything, you can relax in the car, have your guide give you detailed explanation on sites and explore then a bit on your own. The lunch was fantastic too! Thank you to Hadeer and Ezat, who came to pick me up even in advance and was great all around.

Thank you, Malak. - We were lucky that Malak was our guide for 2 days in Cairo. We are 4 Chileans, and he took us through the Cairo Museum, all the pyramids of Giza, Saqqara, and Memphis. He explains incredibly, with a lot of passion and information that you won't find in books. Super attentive, punctual, and he adapted to our pace. He made the experience unforgettable. 100% recommended if you visit Egypt. Thank you, Malak!

Mustafa Salah great tour guide - Mustafa Salah was the best tour guide ever. If you come in Cairo you can’t miss a tour with him.
The day was great, I had to learn a lot and I extremely enjoyed the visits, thanks to the tour guide. He also brought us to an authentic Egyptian restaurant for lunch, which was a great experience too.
