Efficient and Enriching: A Half-Day Tour of Egypt's Wonders with Ahmed Salah - Took a half-day tour of the Pyramids, Sphinx, and a camel ride with guide Ahmed Salah. Ahmed was knowledgeable and engaging, making the history come alive. The tour efficiently covered the main sights, though it felt a bit rushed. Added bonuses were a relaxing Nile sail and a quick bazaar visit, which were delightful. Be prepared for the possible wind - bring sunscreen, water, and a hat that won’t fall off due to wind. Great for a quick but comprehensive glimpse of Egypt's wonders. Recommended for those short on time. #QuickEgyptTour #Pyramids

We made many great memories during the half day tour! - Our trip was really amazing! Our guide was really friendly and very knowledgeable. We took really fun photos at the pyramids. Our schedule was quite flexible and some stops were optional, but all of them were totally worth a visit. The length was just right as we saw many things but it was not too exhausting. Strongly recommend this to anyone staying in Cairo or Giza!

Great experience! - Our favorite part was riding the camels. The camel handlers took great photos of us. So much fun! The pyramids were impressive, but we decided not to go in because there were so many tourists. Mahmoud, our guide, is very knowledgeable. We learned a lot and had a great time. This is a ‘must do’ tour. We also saw the Giza pyramids sound and light show the night before with another guide, Mohammed. Also a must see. Mohamed was a great guide, too! This company provides private tours, which is the best way to see all the sites in Cairo and Giza.

Tour Cut Short to Visit “Papyrus Museum” - I really would love to leave a better review because the communication with the company was great and we really liked the transportation and driver. However, we were really disappointed that our half-day tour of the site was cut quite short so that the guide could take us to a “papyrus museum” that was really just a souvenir shop. He wouldn’t let us view the Sphinx up close, rather he rushed us out the gate and said we had a lot of extra time so we would be going to this “museum.” Beyond that, we had booked lunch at a restaurant within the site so once we left, we were not allowed to renter for our lunch. The guide had left us alone by then, so the solution the driver gave us was to bribe a guard to let us back in. We’re happy we saw the pyramids, but we’re not happy we paid for a half-day tour and were rushed through to visit the shop of a friend of our guide.
