          This 4-hour sightseeing tour explores the mysteries of the Great Pyramids of Giza and Great Sphinx in the Giza Plateau. The oldest and last remaining of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, the site is not only the most popular attraction in Egypt, it’s one of the most loved destinations in the world. In the company of an expert Egyptologist guide, you will visit the Pyramid of Cheops, the middle Pyramid of Chephren, and the small Pyramid of Mykerinus. Continue to the Great Sphinx with its head of a man and body of a lion, gazing imposingly across the valley. Then, complete your tour of the pyramid complex with a walk through the Valley Temple, learning more about the site’s astonishing creation and construction back in 2560–2540 BC.

Valuable information about the pyramids, nice camel ride, and ATV ride was an amazing ride through a village into the desert where our guide let us take group and solo pics. Driver was very nice and on time, tour guide was very helpful and information. Ahmed Ragab & Moustafe. Great people !

          The best way to enjoy the Giza Plateau
          We heard that it would be wise to book our Giza Plateau experience with a local guide to get the most out of our tour and to avoid any unpleasantries that can come with such a world-famous attraction. We are very grateful for heeding that advice as our tour was professionally guided and we were completely satisfied with the result. Our guide and our driver (both named Mohamed) exceeded our expectations for professionalism, enthusiasm, and courtesy. Our guide knows his history and shares his knowledge with enthusiasm. He provided us with historical context and cultural significance that helped us to imagine what it must have been like to live back in the days of pharaohs. Not only was our guide pleasant and informative, his guidance assured us that we would be properly looked-after, and that we wouldn’t be solicited or hassled by local vendors. We learned, laughed, explored and took plenty of photos, The camel ride was the icing on the cake. We experienced a trouble-free, wait-free morning on the plateau - which is exactly what I had hoped for and then some! I would strongly recommend you consider booking with this group to ensure you get the bucket-list experience that you’re seeking.

          We had an absolutely fantastic tour with or tour guide Mohamed and driver Mohamed. From the moment we were picked up our ancient Egyptian lesson began. Mohamed’s knowledge and passion for history is unmatched. I would recommend him to others without hesitation. We learned so much today and the tour exceeded our expectations. Thank you for a wonderful day.

          FLAWLESS! FUN! FASCINATING! FABULOUS!
          I've visited Egypt before but my heart has never felt so full! A huge part of that was having a tour guide like Michael who took such great care of my family & I. His professionalism, experience, knowledge, courtesy, care & consideration left my entire family feeling happy, wiser and enriched☺️ Our Driver Mr Yaseer was simply the best(if you know the drivers in Cairo then you'll understand the utmost appreciation I have lol) Very punctual, professional and safe! The vehicle was clean, spacious and super comfortable. The team at the ATVs ensured we were safe and did the most to ensure our memories were captured with awesome iconic pics! Thank you Mr Michael, Mr Yaseer & Team for making this day super memorable for my family and I. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt!

          Unforgettable Cairo Adventure — Highly Recommend!
          Our private family tour of Cairo with Michael and Mr. Yasir was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and well-paced, allowing us to take in the incredible sights and culture without ever feeling rushed. My parents who are in their 60’s loved every minute of the tour!!! Michael’s knowledge is unmatched — he shared fascinating insights at every stop and kept us entertained with his witty sense of humor. His patience and hospitality made the experience even more special, ensuring we felt comfortable and engaged throughout the day. Mr. Yasir’s driving was impeccable, navigating Cairo’s busy streets with ease and always getting us to each location on time. We felt completely at ease in his capable hands. The quad biking experience was a definite highlight! The guides were fantastic, making sure we felt safe while ensuring the adventure was packed with fun. Plus, Michael’s photo game was on point — we now have some epic shots to remember the day by. To top it all off, we even had time to freshen up before the dinner cruise, a perfect way to end such a magical day. If you’re considering a full-day tour of Cairo, look no further. Michael and Mr. Yasir made this a trip we’ll never forget. I’d recommend them 100% — you won’t regret it!

          Pyramid Tour 3/2025
          Mohammed Elshemei was an exceptional tour guide. He was very courteous and knowledgeable about historical facts. He was calming and patient when I was a bit nervous and hesitant about participating in the camel and ATV ride. I would definitely recommend Mohammed Elshemei to traveling friends and I would request him again if I ever returned Egypt.

          Words can’t even describe this experience. Mohammed Elshemei was our tour guide and he was amazing. Knew his history and helped with taking photos as well. The camel ride and atvs were so much fun. Lunch was tasty and I definitely want to try again. Topping it off with dinner on the Nile River. Would recommend this tour to anyone coming to Giza/Cairo

          Views of the pyramid and sphinx were amazing. Ahmed Ragab was a very good and smooth driver, knew the road. Got out of car every single time to open and close my door for me. Very polite, respectful and spoke English. Snacks and water provided in backseat and whole experience was very good.

          Great tour highly recommend, Habeba our tour guide was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and engaging - explaining clearly the history of Egypt. I would suggest starting the tour earlier as it gets both crowded and hot as the morning goes along.

          Great experience! Mohammad was an amazing guide. Fairly priced and no surprises.
          Had a great time! Mohammad (Abu Omar) was a lovely and very knowledgeable guide more than willing to take pictures for us and everything was exactly as advertised. Private tour with entrance fees covered and hotel pickup. Only thing we needed to pay out of pocket was a small tip for the camel guide. He told us all about the story of how the pyramids were built and who built them and what they are for and how they have changed over the years and answered all of our questions. Would definitely recommend. General note that there is an option to enter the Great Pyramid for a separate fee, some say it's worth it while some don't.

        Our private tour to the Pyramids was absolutely fantastic! Our guide, Moostafa, was exceptional, his knowledge and passion for Egyptian history truly brought the ancient wonders to life. He made sure we had plenty of time for photos, answered all our questions, and added fascinating stories you wouldn’t get from a standard tour. Moostafa’s friendly and professional approach made the whole experience even more special. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a personalized, memorable adventure!

        Really pleasant private tour with Musafa. Kind, nice and, most importantly, a connoisseur of egiptology. Not only did he tell us about the history of the pyramids, but also kept the conversation flowing, always answering our curious and complex questions and letting us know the many theories around them. Highly recommend. Very professional.

        our tour guide from the day before was so informative and in time and polite. he explained everything very clearly and on top of that took a lot of very nice photos.
        our driver, mohamad, was very helpful and made a day full of exploration easy ; doped us in various places and picked us up whenever needed, so we walked very very little compare to what we explored in a day. we had a blast. pyramid tour camel walk and we finished the day with very delicious Egyptian late lunch. it was very over our expectation. thank you so much, "shokran jazilan Ahmed" let me add that ahmed was very patient with us and tried to entertain even our little kid so he would not get board! i would suggest to anyone to take this private tour.

        Helpfull tour guide. Even looked after kids when we went(me and my husband) inside the pyramids and when they were sleeping in the van while we were doing camel ride. Was patient in answering all questions and tour was relaxed and not rushed. Had plenty of time to look and do everything.

        Our tour with Muhammad was perfect. He gave us a friendly welcome and explained to us what we have to do for today. He could answer every question we had. He knows very well about the historical events of the pyramids sind took some nice photos for us too. Even after the tour, he had given us a recommendation where we could get something good to eat. After that, he gave us a few suggestions to look at other things where we were treated very nicely. So highly recommended. 👍

        We really enjoyed the private half-day tour to the pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Our tour guide Fatema was really friendly & professional and led the trip well. She is very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of interesting information about the history of the pyramids but was also able to answer all our questions about current life in Egypt. Fatema also helped us to take great pictures of the trip. We can highly recommend this tour!
