Safe, smooth, and excellent tour by Mahmoud. - Smooth, safe, and memorable tour. I am so glad we had booked this tour as it made our trip super efficient and comfortable. I've read online and saw other tourists without a guide struggle with catching a cab, getting entrance tickets, negotiating a camel ride, being harassed by vendors, and have heard of horror stories where people scammed or were intentionally sent the wrong direction. With this tour it was all smooth and the guide explained many things about the history of Egypt, facts about local lives, and many more. I guarantee that if you have the budget you should sign up for this private tour. Shout-out to Mahmoud Hoka who was a very knowledgeable and helpful guide who made all our experience outstanding.

Impeccable everything - The tour was very good. Excellent guides, and everything was organized perfectly. We didn't have to worry about anything. We had problems with the airline, and they were the only ones who helped us, not being their obligation. Very highly recommended. Very good people

Solo travelers experience - Review: Half-Day Pyramid Tour with Camel Ride
Booking and Preparation
Booking the tour was easy, with clear instructions provided on what to bring and where to meet.
Transportation
We were picked up from our hotel in a comfortable van. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, sharing interesting facts about Egypt on the way to Giza.
At the Pyramids
Seeing the Great Pyramids of Giza was awe-inspiring. Our guide gave us a detailed history and answered all our questions. We had plenty of time to explore and take photos.
Camel Ride
The camel ride was the highlight. The camels were well-behaved, and the handlers were helpful. Riding through the desert with the pyramids in the background was unforgettable.
Sphinx Visit
We also visited the Sphinx, where our guide explained its history and mythology. It was amazing to see it up close.
Return Trip
After the tour, we were comfortably driven back to our hotel. We arrived in the early afternoon, leaving us with the rest of the day free.
Overall
The tour was well-organized, and our guide was excellent. The camel ride added a unique touch to the experience. I highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Egypt.
Tips
- Wear comfortable clothes and shoes.
- Bring sunscreen, a hat, and water.
- Have your camera ready for amazing photo opportunities.
