A Highly Recommended Tour - My family and I had a wonderful experience with the tour. Our our guide Mahmoud Emam was excellent; he was extremely knowledgeable, very professional and most friendly. I highly recommend him and our driver Ahmed. In addition, our hotel accommodations at the Great Pyramid Inn was also excellent with a breathtaking view the pyramids and the sphinx. A+

Amazing!!! - Day tour of the pyramids and museum, arranged by a friend. Our tour guide Tut was excellent - he took us to all of the places we wanted to go to and showed us the best places for photos. In the museum he talked us through the highlights - as it is a HUGE museum. I felt very well looked after by him. Thank you for an amazing experience!

Sun Pyramids Tour is the BEST tour company for Egypt!! Must book! - Using Sun Pyramids Tour was the best decision I could have ever made for my trip! I cannot express how organized they are, how accommodating, how professional and how flexible they are. The prices were amazing and everything about this company is beyond my expectations. Mohab was so over the top friendly and respectful. He made me feel so safe during my journey as a solo female traveler and he is so professional. His smile can make your entire day and his knowledge is incredible! Ahmed Hamama was the best driver! He wasn’t just a good driver, his patience is beautiful and he is so kind and so caring. I made family with these two beautiful people while I was here. Their energy was so incredible. Walaa was the best tour guide I could have ever asked for during my tours to the museums, pyramids, etc. She is SO knowledgeable and her calm demeanor was beautiful. Such a beautiful spirit she is. So much love to Sun Pyramids Tour! Bless them!

Best way to visit sites in and around Cairo - Our tour Cairo was excellent. Our tour guide Dalia was both knowledgeable and compassionate. She took time to take pictures of us as we visited the different sites. She even captured the pyramids from the Citadel. Dalia also organized the visit so we avoided most of the crowds and traffic. The driver was highly skilled and helpful.
The sunset on the rooftop restaurant before the sound and light show at the pyramids was magical. The felucca boat trip on the Nile was unforgettable. The Grand Egyptian Museum was well worth adding to our tour. Finally, I appreciated the SIM card which made communication seamless.
