- Pyramids of Giza - Our Egypt Tailor Made tour guide will meet and transfer you from the hotel to Giza Plateau to visit the impressive 3 Pyramids of Kings Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure which are guarded by the rock-cut statue (The Sphinx). The Great Pyramid of King Cheops is the only wonder of the seven wonders of the ancient world that is still standing today, although it is 2,000 years older than any other wonder on the list.
- Great Sphinx - (The Sphinx) the rock-cut statue
- Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Then you will go to witness the Complex of Saqqara which belongs to King Zoser and his step pyramid which is considered the first pyramid in Egypt and the first rock-cut building in the history.
- Pyramids of Dahshour - After that heading to Dahshur. The pyramid field of Dahshur lies about 10 km south of Saqqara. The pyramids here include the famed Bent and Red Pyramids built by the 4th Dynasty king Senefru (father of Khufu, builder of the Great Pyramid). The Bent Pyramid is the second funerary monument of King Senefru’s Complex after the Meidum Pyramid. the reason for its shape it was originally designed to rise at the angle of 52°, this was decreased to 43.5° partway up, and a girdle was built around the base, apparently because the foundations were unstable and the angle too steep for safety. The Red Pyramid, Seneferu’s third funerary monument, is the first successful true (straight-sided) pyramid ever built. It’s called red because of the reddish color of the stones used in its construction.

Egypt Tailor made tours and guides are excellent! - We loved touring with Ahmed Zaki and Mostafa- our driver. We did not take just one tour with them, we built custom guided 3 day tour in Cairo and 2 days in Giza through Egypt Tailor made tours! Mostafa is an excellent driver and Ahmed is knowledgeable, witty and passionate about sharing his historic knowledge of Egypt.
If fact, we booked all of our trip through Egypt Tailer Made including Abu Simbel, Aswan, Luxor and Marsa Shagra for diving. They were flawless. Guides/drivers met us at the airports, were always timely, and we chose our own hotels. We would use them again and highly recommend Egypt Tailor Made!

Top tier experience - The tour Guide Sabry would be the best and most vital part of the trip I’d say. Extremely knowledgeable, kind, and took a lot of initiative. He made the experience even better!

Heba is an amazing guide and takes great photos! - We went on a private day tour with Heba and had an amazing time. She was wonderful and full of knowledge and really gave us the freedom to explore on our own as well. We got a great deal on the camel rides at the Giza Plateau as well!
Highly recommend her as a tour guide and she knows all the best spots to take photos too!

Ask for Heba in Cairo! - Such an amazing experience! I’ve been wanting to see the pyramids since a kid and it didn’t let me down at all! Our guide for the day was Heba and she was amazing. She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and a great person to spend the day with. After we ran out of water, she stopped with a vendor and bought us all more without asking. Thank you for making our trip special, Heba!

Great Pyramid day tour! - The tour was awesome! We were picked up by our guide Mrs. Heba at the hotel. We were late since our breakfast was not served yet, but she and our driver kindly waited for us.
We went to the Giza plateu, to Shaqarra and then to Dashur. Our guide spoke english fluently which made for some good conversations along the way.
She was very helpful to us in deciding where to spent your money on, we ended up going inside the Dashur pyramids only, as they are the most spectecular ones to see.

Solo traveller to Cairo - Did a trip today with a guide named Sabry. Very professional, and gave me a lot of fun facts and historical stories. Really enjoyed my time and all the stories. I’d definitely recommend it!!! As a solo traveller it was great, the guys drove me to all the pyramids areas, took photos and we had a great chat about modern Egypt and culture.

Awesome experience!!!! - Sabry was wonderful. He gave us a detailed tour of Giza, Saqqara, and Memphis! He made sure to make us feel safe and like family. With his experience we were able to see areas not seen by many. One of the best experiences on a tour we have ever had! A++++

Good experience in general - The tour itself was good, the tour guide Mr. Tawfik was very polite, nice, and knowledgeable and explained to us the important things we needed to know. He was answering all of our questions precisely. The driver was also very nice and polite. The only thing that we disliked was the tips that the camel ride guy was asking from us (a large amount like 10 euros per person) even though the ride was already covered in the tour. The value for money could be a bit better when it comes to lunch and also the water amount. We only got one small bottle each for the whole day.
