Highlights
- Pyramids of Giza - Explore Giza pyramid complex is an archaeological site on the Giza Plateau, on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt. It includes the three Great Pyramids (Khufu/Cheops, Khafre/Chephren and Menkaure/Mykerinos), the Great Sphinx, several cemeteries, a workers’ village and an industrial complex. It is located in the Western Desert, approximately 9 km (5 mi) west of the Nile river at the old town of Giza, and about 13 km (8 mi) southwest of Cairo city center.
The pyramids, which have historically been common as emblems of ancient Egypt in the Western imagination,[1][2] were popularized in Hellenistic times, when the Great Pyramid was listed by Antipater of Sidon as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It is by far the oldest of the ancient Wonders and the only one still in existence.

Incredible Journey! - Our group spent two days in Egypt with an amazing tour guide, Ali. Those two days were full of fun and adventure. On our first day we toured the Pyramids of Giza, went on camel rides and went to see the Sphinx. There was always time to take in the view, take pictures, and ask questions. Ali’s passion for his homeland showed with his wealth of knowledge and his excitement as he shared the sights and history of Egypt. Our first day concluded with a wonderful dinner in view of the Pyramids of Giza. The next day we went to the Egyptian Museum and visited some of the Coptic Churches in Old Cairo. We finished our day with a sunset dinner cruise on the Nile River.
Ali made our trip to Egypt the unforgettable experience I had hoped for.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! - Wonders for Egypt Tours exceeded our expectations! We were two couples, we have an itinerary of 7 days, including Cairo, Aswan and Nile cruise river to Luxor, and I can tell you this has been one of the best experiences in our lives! They take care of everything, you don't have to worry about nothing, because they cover all the details (transport, tickets, water, recommendations for food, etc). Special thanks to Ali from Cairo, our amazing English tour guide, he treated us like his own family. And also thanks to Ali from Luxor, our Spanish tour guide, he took care of us during the Nile cruise river and all the excursions we did. He is very kind and friendly and the way he tells you the stories about the temples etc keeps you very attentive.
If we go back to Egypt we'll definitely contact Wonders of Egypt Tours services again!!

Family vacation - Thousands of years of history in one place! We loved all of the interesting and fun facts that our guide, Ali, shared. It made the trip more meaningful and amazing. Our kids are 10 and 13 and loved all of the Egyptian history they learned. If you go to Egypt, you have to have a tour guide and the best person is Ali. He will take care of you and show you all the wonders of Egypt. He will also take you to places to experience authentic Egyptian culture and food. We wanted some souvenirs to take back home and Ali took us to so many places that had things made by Egyptians i.e papyrus, fragrant oils, scarves, 18k gold jewelry. Highly recommend this tour company and you should ask for Ali specifically. He will make the trip memorable for you and your family.
