- Pyramids of Giza - Meet the tour guide in the lobby of your hotel in Cairo or Giza. The first destination is Giza, where visitors can explore the Giza Pyramids and the renowned Sphinx. Then, proceed to the Panoramic area to view all the pyramids together.
- Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) - The tour guide will lead visitors to the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the only remaining wonder of the ancient Seven Wonders of the World. Visitors can walk around, take beautiful photos, touch, and even sit on it.
- Great Sphinx - Next, continue to the Great Sphinx, which features the head of a pharaoh and the body of a lion. Dating back to the time of Khephren, this Sphinx was created to guard the pyramid of King Chefren. Following this, visit the Valley Temple, associated with the Pyramid of Chefren, which served as a site for the mummification process before the king’s burial. Then, proceed to the Egyptian Museum.
- Khafre’s Pyramid - The second-largest pyramid in Giza and Egypt was constructed for Khafre, the third pharaoh of the 4th Dynasty during the Old Kingdom Period around 2540 BC. Known in history by the Greek name Chephren, Khafre was the son of Khufu, the builder of the Great Pyramid, and the grandson of Sneferu, another prominent builder of Ancient Egypt. An external visit is included, but entry into the pyramid requires an additional ticket, which can be purchased during the visit.
- Grand Egyptian Museum - Enter the magnificent Grand Egyptian Museum, where 5,000 years of history are illuminated under the golden light of Giza. As visitors stroll through its expansive galleries, the treasures of ancient Egypt are revealed — colossal statues of pharaohs, intricate jewelry, and the complete collection of Tutankhamun’s tomb displayed together for the first time. Through glass walls, the pyramids rise majestically in the distance, linking past and present in a stunning view. Each hall narrates a story of power, faith, and artistry, immersing visitors in the grandeur of one of humanity’s greatest civilizations.

Fantastic visit to the pyramids and sphinx with lovely local guide! - We had an amazing half-day visit to the Pyramids and Sphinx with Nevin. She picked us up from our hotel and took us to the Pyramids via the scenic route. We saw some older neighbourhoods within Cairo which was great and made us feel like we’d seen a more authentic side of the city. The tour was informative and engaging and we got to see everything we expected to see and more. As a bonus, Nevin is an excellent photographer and we have lots of photos in the best spots! For the price we paid, we definitely feel like we got good value for money. Having a friendly local guide like Nevin is a must if you are visiting the pyramids - we cannot thank her enough for making our Christmas visit so special! 🎄

Ebrahim and the driver... - Ebrahim and the driver Kareem were extremely communicative and helpful during the tour. Ebrahim was a great Egyptologist going into great detail on the sights that we saw during the tour. Would highly recommend booking if looking for a carefree yet informative experience!

Favorite Experience in Cairo - Mohammed was such a great and knowledgeable guide! I felt like I was begin shown around by a friend known for ages. The tour and lunch was spectacular and very well worth the price. The timing, Egyptology knowledge, and navigation was 10/10.

Thanks to his open and friendly nature, every trip will be a great experience. Highly recommended!

Birthday at the Pyramids - Mohamed was an amazing guide and highly recommend. He was obviously knowledgeable about the history of the Pyramids and everything in between, but what made the tour special was connecting with Mohamed, the jokes we had, talking about relationships and family. He helped us navigate the day without any issues and even got me a birthday gift to end the tour.

Superb private Tour with Marco - I messed up my dates and booked for another day and realized last minute. When I contacted the tour company they were amazing and organized me a very professional and friendly guide called Marco who was a superb knowledge of the history. He showed me all around the Pyramids and added some extra stops that are not included in a normal tour. He gave me a really good understanding of the past and showed me how to make Papyrus as well. I can highly recommend the tour company and especially Marco. Ask for him when you book with them. It will be worth it

All day around Cairo museums - We have been with Marco (who we call Marco Polo) has been with us all day. I can recommend to every one who looks for the finest history of Egypt. His knowledge is fantastic he can read and explain Egypt historical language.
Amazing friendly guide.
