It was a unique experience for us to see this live. Our son was very enthusiastic. The crowd was rather normal early (8:30). From midday onwards it gets fuller and you have to drink a lot and be careful, which I didn't like but I knew beforehand, the pushiness of the locals. The nice thing is that at the Pyramids Visitor Center (new entrance on the west side) buses take you to the points free of charge and you can simply get on or off. Otherwise it was a very nice, unique family experience.

After a misunderstanding when I placed my order on the website, the company did everything possible to meet my expectations. Exceptional day with my 2 children. The driver, Mohamed, was really attentive and very kind, and the guide, Reda, was a super guide who gave us lots of information, took great photos of us and was very dynamic, smiling and laughing a lot. I recommend this experience by headout

Great tour. Redah is a very good guide who adapts very well to the language. He was accompanied by his driver Ahmed who is also very friendly. We had a great time. I'd recommend it.

As a first-time visitor and solo female traveler to Egypt, I was excited but also a bit nervous about checking out tourist attractions like the Giza pyramids or the Khan El Khalili market. I was thrilled to find a tour aimed at solo female travelers. From the moment I met my guide, Samaa, I felt completely at ease. She was punctual, friendly, super knowledgeable about Cairo, and it was easy to communicate with her in English. We kicked off the tour by visiting the Giza pyramids, which lasted about 3 hours and involved a lot of walking in the scorching desert sun. We had the option to go inside one of the pyramids or take a camel ride. I chose the camel ride. Samaa was with me the whole time (except for the short camel ride) and was quick to offer tips on how to handle vendors who approached us and how to navigate the area. After that, we enjoyed lunch at a local restaurant, then headed to the Egyptian Museum and the market. At the market, Samaa took us to a shop with fixed, affordable prices and helped me snag some souvenirs that were almost out of stock—she’s truly the best tour guide! I highly recommend this tour, especially for solo travelers.
