Private half-day with departure at 8 a.m. sharp and return around noon, but you can take as much time as you like. We were able to see the pyramids from all angles, as well as the Sphinx. The guide, Reda (in French), was very friendly and smiling, making it a great outing! And the driver, Tamer, was very vigilant on the road. Just so you know, we had taken the private exit without entry to the pyramids etc. (but it's certainly possible to change your mind on the spot if you change your mind at the entrance, I think). You have to pay the entrance ticket to the pyramids in addition to the tour (1700 Egyptian pounds). We just didn't appreciate the cash cow aspect at the end of the tour, even though we understood that this was the game... "don't buy anything at the pyramids, you'll get ripped off there's another store outside". But we didn't really find the attractive prices or the coveted objects. Our visit to the papyrus store was a little oppressive, with the saleswoman insisting heavily that we buy something... Otherwise, everything was perfect and I highly recommend the visit, which was rich in detail and history. Thank you Reda!View original review in FrenchJulien

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 headoutView original review in French

The pyramids are a marvelous thing, but our guide Kabri (I hope I remember the name right) was truly an exceptional teacher he engaged us with his stories and made us experience a wonderful morning in his companyView original review in Italian

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.View original review in French

See the pyramids with a guide who knows their secrets
Start your journey with pick-up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza, available every hour from 7 AM to 12 Noon. Choose between a shared group transfer or a private vehicle, depending on your preference. Sit back in an air-conditioned ride as you head to the Giza Plateau, home to the last remaining Wonder of the Ancient World. Your expert Egyptologist guide will lead you through the highlights, starting with the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest of the three. If you’ve chosen a ticket-inclusive tour, you’ll enter the plateau and see the pyramids from up close. Entry to inside the pyramid can be purchased on-site for an extra cost.
Stop at the perfect photo spot & visit the Great Sphinx
Before heading to the Sphinx, stop at a panoramic viewpoint where you can capture all three pyramids in a single epic shot—a must for photographers! Then, continue to the Great Sphinx, the iconic half-lion, half-human monument, and explore the Valley Temple, once used for royal mummification rituals.
Upgrade for the full Giza experience
