Excellent trip and tour guide
We only booked the trip the day before, and were very happy to have a smart car, driver and private tour guide Ahmed for just myself and husband for the day. Ahmed was charming and informative and we had a great day seeing the sights which are further away from the cities. He also took some fabulous pics of us in front of the pyramids!

An excellent trip
Mohammed was an extremely knowledgeable guide who was able to explain what we were seeing and answer all our questions.

Nice sights; horrible guide.
Would have been 5 stars if we had a better guide.
Basically, we didn't get to do all the items on the itinerary because the guide was in a hurry. According to the supplier (Emo Tours) "Your tour taka about 8 hour including pickup and drop off" that's the exact words from their WhatsApp message. In reality we spent about 3 hours and 35 minutes. Under 5.5 hours including travel. So what happened to the other 2.5 hours???
The guide was passive aggressive, with lots of irritated facial expressions when we asked questions. Was slightly rude at times.
The guide seemed in a hurry to get it over with and so we missed a number of things from the itinerary. However, he still took us to a carpet place for an unwanted upsell opportunity.
The driver was great though.
The sites that we did see were excellent and are the reason why this didn't get just a one star rating.
In fairness, we managed to get a refund through Viator with no difficulty, which probably confirms how bad things were with this tour.
Overall it always comes down to the attitude of the guide. We did other tours in Egypt and they were all good thanks to having helpful and positive guides.
The guide on this specific tour was terrible

Fun and informative visit that was good value compared to other providers.
We (self plus wife) were collected in a clean car with functioning seatbelts by cheerful and informative guide Mahmoud and driver Ayman. Mahmoud spoke excellent English and clearly knew his subject. We dictated the pace of where and when and had a thoroughly great trip which ran for nearly seven hours by the time we’d had lunch. We booked on line directly rather than through the hotel. Would very much recommend the trip.

Impresionantes lugares
Lo mejor fue entrar en las pirámides de Dashur!! Los lugares perfectos... La guia no nos gustó tanto. No era antipática ni nada así, pero no tenía aquella gracia que se le pide para tener una experiencia 10. De ahí que no ponga 5 estrellas.

Mona, our female guide, is the best.
Mona, our guide, waited for us at the lobby on time, and it was a start.
She was a lovely woman with great knowledge.
This tour basically hangs around in the desert, so it's really hot, you have to make sure you're tan ready.
There is an entrance after climbing a very steep flight of stairs, partly because we put it inside the pyramid, and it was tough for the Alafif generation. I finally tried to get inside, but I gave up because it was crowded with other tourists and the narrow aisle where I had to crouch and walk was so crowded that I ran out of acid. An elderly white man had also collapsed at the entrance and was waiting for a rescue team, which made me wish I had come while I was younger.
Mona bought us fresh mango juice as we were doing our best, and we were instantly refreshed. Then they took me to some sort of papyrus production plant and bought me a souvenir.
We had lunch as an option, but it was Egyptian and well, it was delicious.
Overall, it was fun.

Amazing experience, definitely recommend.
Pick up was on time and our guide was super nice and kind. Explained lots of interesting historical facts about the places we visited. To see the oldest pyramids is a must in my opinion. Going inside the pyramid was also incredible, but be warned, it is very difficult to walk in there. If you are not in good physical shape consider not going inside the pyramids. That being said, it was the high point of the tour. All in all, great guide and great experience!
