What you'll see

  1. The Pyramids Of Giza
    30 minutes

    Panoramic Viewpoint – Capture unforgettable photos of all three pyramids. Great Pyramid of Khufu – Explore the largest of the pyramids, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure – Learn the fascinating stories behind these monumental structures. The Great Sphinx – Witness the enigmatic half-human, half-lion statue guarding the plateau. The Valley Temple – Visit the ancient temple believed to be used for mummification rituals.

  2. Panoramic View of the Pyramids
    30 minutes

    A stunning panoramic spot where you can see all three pyramids aligned — perfect for unforgettable photos.

  3. Pyramid of Menkaure
    30 minutes

    Menkaure’s Pyramid, the smallest of the three main pyramids at Giza, may be modest in size but not in significance. Built for Pharaoh Menkaure, it reflects a more refined architectural style and once had a stunning granite casing at its base. Its proportions and elegance give it a unique charm, offering a beautiful contrast to the massive scale of the other pyramids. Standing before it, you can truly appreciate the craftsmanship and symbolic power of ancient Egyptian royalty.

  4. Pyramid Complex of Khafre
    30 minutes

    Khafre’s Pyramid stands out with its preserved limestone cap and powerful presence. It’s slightly smaller than the Great Pyramid but appears taller due to its elevated base.

  5. The Great Pyramid of Khufu
    30 minutes

    The Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids of Giza — and the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. Built over 4,500 years ago using more than 2 million limestone blocks, it’s a masterpiece of engineering and ancient ambition. Standing at 146 meters when it was first completed, it held the record as the tallest human-made structure for over 3,800 years. A true marvel that leaves every visitor speechless.

  6. Valley Temple of Khafre
    30 minutes

    The Valley Temple of Khafre is an ancient mortuary temple where the mummification process is believed to have taken place. Made of massive limestone and granite blocks, this well-preserved structure once connected to the Pyramid of Khafre and the Sphinx. Walking through its halls, you can almost feel the sacred rituals that took place here over 4,500 years ago.

  7. Great Sphinx
    30 minutes

    The Great Sphinx of Giza, with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, is one of the most iconic monuments in the world. Carved from a single block of limestone, it stands guard over the Giza Plateau. Thought to represent Pharaoh Khafre, the Sphinx symbolizes strength, wisdom, and royal power. Its mysterious expression and enormous size — 73 meters long — continue to fascinate visitors and scholars alike.

  8. Grand Egyptian Museum
    2 hours, 30 minutes

    Enjoy a guided tour of the world’s largest archaeological museum. Marvel at the full collection of King Tutankhamun's treasures and thousands of other artifacts. Learn about Egypt's ancient history in a modern, immersive environment.

A fun little solo trip to the touristy side of Cairo

Perfect for a solo travel! The team was super punctual and we covered a lot of ground in a short time. Adham aka (Elhwany) was great from the start of the tour to the end. He is very out-going, knowledgable, and super flexible with any requests you might have. Very friendly and professional! The tour was overall 6-7 hours. We started the morning with the Grand Museum (which is spectacular and if you really are into art, needs a minimum of 3-4 days) Adham takes you through it like a story - very engaging and informative. (Pro tip: he appreciates if you do some homework ;)). We spent approximately 2 hours inside and then proceeded to move onto the pyramids. And the pyramids are no short of spectacular, truly felt like a dream. You get dropped off a the main location and get transported via buses near the pyramids. We were there for approximately 2 hours where I had a camel ride near the pyramids, took loads of pictures,made a few tiktoks and soaked in the views. Followed by a tour inside one of the pyramids, which was intense (not for anyone with claustrophobia). Definitely something, to do once in your life. And then we walked around until we reached the Sphinx, and then walked into the bazaar area where I shopped. Our last stop was the lunch (Koshry, which was super delish, selected by Adham after asking me preferances) on a feluca in the Nile, which was the perfect way to cool down and relax. Luckily, there was no rush or large crowds throughout the visit and the weather was also not too hot! I would defo recommend the tour and the guide, as it was worth the buck. I do have two suggestions: 1. There needs to be picture points incorporated (i felt that was a bit lacking) 2. If there are any additional things (even if they are paid) one can do in a spot, it can be suggested. I missed the mummies exhibition in the Museum because I didnt buy the version of the ticket with it, but I wish I had known. I would have purchased it additionally on the day!

Great Guide

Our Egyptologist Hossam El Ashmoni was brilliant. He wasn’t just knowledgeable but enthusiastic too, he was friendly and we enjoyed his company making the experience we actually paid for great, he gets 5*. Unfortunately the tour company included extra visits to shops we didn't request or want and as a result we were too exhausted to finish the tour, we would have chosen the Bazaar over the shops if we had been given the option. We also found their pricing to be confusing on Viator, we believed we had booked the all inclusive tour but were contacted by the company the night before saying we hadn’t. We can’t honestly say this was their fault but we booked more than one company for various tours whilst in Egypt and had no pricing issues with any of the others.

The Perfect Egypt Tour

Absolutely amazing experience! Our tour guide Waleed was extremely knowledgeable, answered every question we had, and went into great detail when explaining everything. He planned the entire day perfectly down to the minute. We went camel riding, visited the Pyramids, the Sphinx, the temples, and the new museum. We also had an authentic Egyptian lunch, me and my wife love Egyptian food now! To finish it all off, we enjoyed a beautiful boat ride on the Nile River. Truly an experience of a lifetime thanks to Waleed and our driver. You must book this tour!

Tour of Giza stunning.

An unforgettable experience for Giza. Toha has been an excellent guide. He has told us the story of Egypt and its curiosities, in addition to the thousand questions we have asked him. I also have to emphasize that he makes amazing photos and knows the best places to take them. After seeing the great museum and telling us his story he took us to eat a typical meal that was very good and tell us amazing views of the Nile. The tour is highly recommended for people who have little time in Giza and want to make the most of it. I would definitely repeat to do another tour with him, he is an amazing guide.

A unique experience.

It has been an amazing experience from start to finish. The tour was very well organized, with lots of interesting information and clear explanations throughout the tour. We learned a lot about the history and culture of the place, making the visit even more special. In addition, the guide, Toha, was very attentive, friendly and always willing to answer questions. Without a doubt, it is a very complete tour that I totally recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy and learn at the same time.

Very fun to have explored Egypt with this Tour.

Mohamed Galal seems to me a very good person very friendly and patient. It made me feel great on tour, apart from everything. He is a cultured person with much knowledge of the subject of Egyptian history. Handle the issue professionally. I hope that it will continue to gain more knowledge every day. And I express that I am very happy with the tour.
