Highlights
  • Pyramids of Giza - Pickup from your hotel in either Cairo or Giza by tour guide to start your tour . The Giza pyramid complex, also called the Giza Necropolis, is the site on the Giza Plateau in Greater Cairo, Egypt that includes the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, along with their associated pyramid complexes and the Great Sphinx of Giza. All were built during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt. The site also includes several cemeteries and the remains of a workers’ village.

Pyramids Giza - Peace of mind - We opted for this private tour and I can highly recommend it, our tour guide Ayman was brilliant, kind and friendly and very knowledge and passionate about telling us the stories of the pyramids.. but the most important thing of all is peace of mind.. To get the best of Cario and seeing the pyramids you need a guide, they keep you away from the sellers and hustlers, picking you up from the hotel and dropping you back, they are there with you all the way, getting you through the queues etc.. highly recommended.. we are so glad we did this..

Walk like an Egyptian - not! - No pickup/drop off issues. Been to the Pyramids on a previous trip in 2004. Was a second visit worth it? For me it was. For this trip, I was able to go inside the pyramids for the first time. This option costed an additional 600 pounds - about $40 or so. Additionally, I purchased the quad bike/camel ride options, and that was both worthwhile and fun. The tour guide was knowledgeable, professional, courteous. Never had shwarma before and enjoyed lunch at Felefal near my hotel in Cairo.

Astonishing visit of the pyramids with Mamdour - We visited the Giza pyramids and the Sphinx with Mamdouh Kamal and Agami who were very flexible and interesting. Finally, we visited also Dachur and Saqqarah pyramids after a lunch, all for 60€. Mamdouh explications were perfectly clear, he is a very clever and funny guide, the best one. At the end, we were alone on the Saqqarah’s site as Mamdouh knows the security, so cool ! Mamdouh also give us fruits as gifts. It was a wonderful visit, I recommended Mamdouh and Agami for all the visitors who want to visit egypt pyramids.

The Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx - Trip advisor The Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx Today’s experience visiting the pyramids and Sphinx was absolutely amazing. We were also able to add the option to ride camels to see all 9 pyramids. Tonsie was our guide for this tour and was by far, the best guide we have toured with yet! He has made our trip a memorable one for sure. He was knowledgeable of Egyptian history but he didn’t overwhelm us with more information than we could intake in a given time. He balanced his wealth of knowledge all while allowing us to enjoy our time with making memories and photography. The photos he took captured our joy in the moments. He is fun, energetic and personable. He’s most definitely a five star guide! I would recommend this company as well as Tonsie to anyone who’s looking for an outstanding and memorable experience.

Wonderful personal tour with Amr Samir and Ehab Sedan - Today, I had a wonderful tour of the pyramids of Giza with Amr Samir and Ehab Sedan. Amr was a wonderful guide, sharing a wealth of knowledge and navigating me through days worth of sites efficiency in a day. He was personable, patient, and friendly. I’d recommend him highly to any tourist looking to get a detailed tour of the area. Ehab was a wonderful driver, provided a variety of insights about Cairo and the culture. I couldn’t have asked for a better day.

Lovely day out away from the hustle and bustle with Mamduah Kamal. - Our driver, Mohamad, carefully navigated is through the crazy streets of Cairo to the amazing, towering pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Mamduah Kamal, our guide, had met us with Mohamad at our hotel and gave us so much information as we traveled along. He took us through the best spots in the sights. Along the way, he stopped off to get us many fresh fruits. He then arranged for us a great rate for the camel rides even when the camel herder tried to raise the rate by a few Egyptian Pounds, he kept them from doing it. Then, we had a lovey and informative tour of Memphis and then Sakarra. We had a late lunch. Mamduah knew everyone and just where to go.

Perfect way to see the pyramids - The tour to the pyramids was one of the best tours I’ve been on. An early pickup meant we got to the pyramids just after sunrise. Our tour guide Asma was very friendly and made this tour comfortable and seamless. She was a great photographer as well meaning we have got amazing pictures of the pyramids and the sphinx. The camel ride was all prearranged taking away the hassle of trying to organise ourselves. There was lunch included but as we were both unwell on this trip , we were able to go straight back to the hotel for some rest. This was the perfect way to see and experience one of the wonders of the world. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cairo or Giza.

A wonder - Cant go to egypt without seeing the pyramids and the sphinx Its a sight to behold and worth a trip. I was perplexed and unable to determine how these magnificent structures were constructed. We stopped off at perfume factory on way back and I bought some lovely oils

Lucky dip. You're experience depends on which guide you get(and ask to skip the oil making stop!) - Our driver was great, our guide was either naturally quiet/ shy, didnt give us much information compared to the other tours we did around Luxor. Felt like if we had another guide i would have learnt alot more. We were not explained how long we had at each place or the layout of the day, and also were not given free time to explore on our own like the other tours. None the less we still seen the pyramids, sphinx, and went to some great spots for photos, and had a delicious buffet lunch. After lunch we seen how they made paper out of papyrus which was good, the people were not pushy and we felt if we didnt want to purchase anything we could leave no hassles. This was not the case at the stop after this where they show you about how they make oils and perfumes. They didnt explain or show us anything about how they were done, rather just gave us a sample smell of about 5 of them, told us how to use it and then asked which ones we wanted to buy. I told him 3 times we were not interested in buying and he kept insisting and pushing, to make it easier i just purchased an oil i had no interest in to leave($15usd) when to my surprise they then took us to another section about tea's and herbs! Same deal, no information on how it was made, clearly not interested in showing you anything rather than just making a sale at any means neccessary. Wish we skipped this stop, completely pointless.
