Stunning views at sunset - Picked up by our guide, Ali, fantastic. English superb and speaks many languages. He made sure we were safe and very conversational. Enjoyed him completely! Zero our guide for the camel ride was funny, entertaining and knowledgeable. He made our camel ride experience pleasant. Beautiful views of the back side of the pyramids and stunning views of sunset. Would do this again. Only drawback are the ATVs all around the camels so it’s not as peaceful as I had hoped. Very relaxing otherwise!

5-star experience - We had an amazing time riding the camels around the pyramids and watching the sunrise. From booking the trip till the drop-off after the ride, we received 5-star service all along. I would highly recommend Wonders of Egypt Tours as they have a wide selection of tours and are highly professional. Riding camels was very exciting! I would do it again.

Very Unique Cairo Experience - Beautiful Experience! Definitely recommend. 2 parts: Driver & Experience Guide - Driver takes you to the location and drops you back off at your lodging. Guide meets you at location with Camel (speaks little to no English, but enough to have a gem of an experience) You jump on the camel with your guide for a long ride to the top of a sand hill. Watch the sunrise over the city with Pyramid views & tea (there are no snacks as advertised, just Tea). Ride back down the trail briskly to your driver who returns you. Good= unique experience I won't soon forget. Bad = no snacks as advertised. Just Ok = it was chilly/cold at the top and a disclaimer would have been nice. Bring a sweater! I'd definitely book this again.

Amazing Sunrise is an understatement - Our guide Abdul Habib was so accommodating. We were not expecting to sit and have tea with him. It was an early day and we were sleeping and a little nervous at first but when we mounted "Michael Jackson" and "Michael Jordan" and started our journey the sun started to make its presence felt. By the time we arrived at our destination we were totally relaxed. We had tea and Abdul gave us some great photo ideas! We not only enjoyed the peace that the moment gave us but we enjoyed Abdul's hospitality and willingness to share. He even let me drive on the way back! :)

Amazing Experience! - Our trip to Egypt was amazing! Our driver Mostafa and our guide Ali were very kind and flexible with our hectic schedules during our visit! They waited patiently for us outside the airport once, and another time outside the train station for hours. They also helped us to get our Covid-19 PCR Tests, which are required to travel internationally as of today. They treated us with much love and respect that it was easy to relax and enjoy the landscapes of the city or the mysteries of the pyramids. The camel ride was incredible and it was rather comical that the camels had names like Michael Jackson or 007. Ali was very knowledgeable and it depends on how much interest you have about the subject, he can go into fine detail about any question you might have concerning egyptology. Overall, a great experience that I would recommend everyone to do at least once in their lifetime. The locals are polite and they would like to know you so just be prepared to have random encounters with strangers wanting to know more about your culture and trying to have an exchange of ideas. The Pyramids are truly impressive. You can even see them from the sky when your airplane is getting ready to land in Cairo. One of the seven wonders of the ancient world, and the last one standing, is without a doubt something to behold. Thank you Wonders of Egypt Tours!

Out of this world views! - My family had a great camelback trip led by Adel this morning. It was well-organized, safe and absolutely beautiful. We felt like we had the whole plateau to ourselves and took great photos (with Adel and his team’s help).

Sunrise Camel Ride - Ali, our tour guide was so responsive and informative from start to finish! Punctual too. The hazy sky obscured the great pyramids from us but we had a lovely camel ride nonetheless. (We had an unexpected stop on the way back to see how papyrus was made so we got back nearly two hours later than scheduled but it was an interesting detour.)
