Itinerary
You will see the only remaning Wonder of the ancient world - Great Pyramids of Giza.The three largest and finest pyramids were erected at Giza, near Cairo.
You will be astonished by the 73 m long and 20 m high Great Sphinx, located next to the Pyramids of Giza. Carved out of limestone, the Sphinx has the facial features of a man and the body of a recumbent lion. A proffisional Egyptologist tour guide will tell you a lot of misteries surround the Great Sphinx, perhaps even more than the pyramids.
You will visit a home of an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. During the 2 hours guided tour in museum you will see the items from the tomb of Tutankhamen, including the solid-gold mask that covered the pharaoh’s head. Other treasures include reliefs, sarcophagi, papyri, funerary art and the contents of various tombs (including that of Queen Hetepheres), jewelry, ornaments of all kinds, and other objects.

Unique experience beautiful great weather
The tour was very well organised. Lovely group of international people. Good sights although, personally, I found the Pyramids underwhelming. Well done and thank you TripAdvisor
I mean the pyramids 😍 everything was well organized and our guide was great at telling us about the local history but it was so crowded like all different tour groups at the same time so it was hard to get photos sometimes especially at the museum and there was no A/C in the museum.
Hello Nicole, Thank you so much for your review. We are glad to know that you liked the trip, the guide, the organisation. Totally agree with you that pyramids are amazing. Hope to see you again in Egypt for a new discoveries. Best regards, Cleotours Team
Great day trip and was worth the long day because of obviously seeing the Pyramids, our guide spoke great in various languages, was very helpful and was very knowledgeable about everywhere we visited. However, there was a few bad points (which didn't ruin the day but could have been avoided). First of all the organisation was a bit all over the place in the airport both there and back. In airport on way back, was told the wrong flight and then also told the wrong gates, luckily we seen people from flight already waiting to board that we quickly asked for help and got given our boarding passes and got through. If we didn't we would have been sat in an empty gate where we had been told to go until the flight had left. Also, we were taken to places during the day which were simply added in for the benefit the guide, for example taken to a perfume shop after seeing the pyramids where we were sat down and almost begged to buy stuff if the price was right. We felt in this place that we potentially weren't going to leave / the tour guide wasn't going to leave until we did. This wasn't in the itinerary when we booked and the day would have been much more enjoyable & shorter had this not been involved. We pretty much spent the same time (around 2-3 hours) waiting in these shops until we bought things as we did at the Pyramids.
Amazing experience. Would’ve liked more time in museum but we had a lot to do in one day. Total tour time was 16 hours from the time we left hotel until return. Long day but worth it.
Hello, Cesar. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us feedback. We’re glad that you chose our tour to celebrate your birthday and that you enjoyed the trip to pyramids. Hope to see you again on our tours. Best regards, Cleotours team
We took this tour through one of the local organizers. Departed at three in the morning to catch a seven o'clock flight and returned at 11pm with a clear delay. The visit to the idle museum lasted half an hour then it's all a run in the various local shops to whomever plucks you the most. Lunch at 11.30 am and visit to the pyramids at 2 pm with the scorching sun. They tell you it's all inclusive and you find yourself paying on the spot other things. Bad experience.
Ciao, Emilia. Grazie per aver lasciato un feedback sul tour di 1 giorno alle Piramidi da Sharm-el-Sheikh in volo. Siamo così frustrati di sapere che hai avuto un'esperienza negativa.

Hello, Witold. Thank you so much for your feedback. We're glad we could make your pyramids trip enjoyable, and we hope to see you again soon. Best regards,
A long day but oh it was so worth it. We flew from Sharm to Cairo and were guided all the way. The pyramids were clearly the main event and they didn’t disappoint. The camel ride was extra special as it was my partners birthday. Our guide was very knowledgeable and did a great job. Overall a brilliant day. Thank you.
Hello, Alistair. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your rating with us. We are happy that you had a memorable experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Flights, transport was well arranged and organised. Our English Tour guide Mahmud was absolutely fantastic!!! He ensured we got the best out of the experience. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, helpful and thoughtful. He established a quick rapport with us and kept us at ease throughout the long day. This is value money well spent. We felt so blessed to have experienced this excursion and Mahmud was class!!
We have now taken the trip for 2. Walk from sharm el sheik to Cairo to see the pyramids and the Egyptian Museum. We highly recommend taking the trip with Amisol. The tour is really well arranged with guides all the way. Our guide Mansour has been with us on the tour again this year and made the tour absolutely fantastic. Mansour is definitely the best guide we have ever tried. He takes care of everything so you feel safe and safe. He is warm and friendly, speaks well English and makes sure you get all the knowledge you need. Mansour is the reason we took the trip for the second time. He ensures all the time that we have well, is happy and adjust. Mansour will safely take you through the city, street sellers, as well as entrance places. In addition, he knows the good places to take photos, and he happily takes your photos for you if you all want to be on the photos. Mansour made our trip fantastic once again!
