Magnificent pyramids. Our guide Dina gave us lots of interesting explanations. I don't regret this trip, despite the travel time, which may seem long.

The information about what exactly I am buying is a bit underestimated. The information what everything is on the site and what everything I can visit within the ticket is not crystal clear. Regarding Headout, I would just say you are ok, reselling a ticket. But what would make you really special? If you would give me an info about the locals, their tricks and how they are trying to constantly get some money from me. Even the "official" guides they sold me something really cheap like a trip maybe five times more expensive! It is my fault I do not have the information, but Headout would be really special to make a section where they give the person useful advices what to avoid, how much things costs - like for example a horse ride or a camel, etc.

I purchased a skip-the-line ticket for the Pyramids through Headout. Everything was clear and the quick entry really made a difference, especially with the heat and crowds.

Beautifully designed and finished, artefacts thoughtfully and logically displayed. I walked for over 4 hours and covered 7km without getting tired or bored. Highly recommend.

A MUST for Egypt fans. Very well designed architecture for wheelchair users and baby carriages. Despite the large number of people, there are always opportunities to retreat with a view of the pyramids to pause for a moment and sit down Great!

We had an incredible day. We set off with our guide Reda, a fantastic, wonderful person who was able to explain all the monuments of Egyptian civilization and the different dynasties to us. We also visited the Sphinx. He gave us lots ofexplanations about it and also about all the different types of pyramids. We then visited the new Grand Egyptian Museum, where he really took the time to show us around the entire museum and explain many of the objects. It was a unique experience. I recommend this guide to everyone. He has a great knowledge of Egyptian history. He explained everything in French. He accompanied us all day and it was an exceptional day thanks to him. We would also like to thank the driver, Sayed, a very good driver with exemplary driving skills. We felt safe and it was a real pleasure to be driven by someone so professional in a very nice car. We are very happy with Luna Travel Egypt, and we will definitely use them again if we return to Egypt. Thank you to everyone for giving us a dream day.
