Pickup is flexible to suit your schedule, with hotel-to-hotel service for a seamless start. Meet your licensed guide in the hotel lobby at your chosen time and set off for the Giza Plateau. Here, stand in awe before the Great Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and get up close to the mysterious Sphinx, guardian of the plateau for thousands of years.
After exploring Giza, take a break and enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant near the pyramids.
Then, continue to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the world’s largest archaeological museum.

Wander through the museum’s 12 main galleries, each showcasing a different era of ancient Egyptian civilization, creating a breathtaking journey through 7,000 years of history — all with beautiful views of the pyramids in the distance.

It was the best day. The driver was brilliant, felt safe throughout and the guide was very knowledgeable. The pace of the tour was set by me which allowed me to see and do everything I wanted. Visiting the pyramids was a dream come true - highly recommend.
Thanks for your amazing review and you are welcome to Egypt
Amazing first day in Giza! Our guide Mahmoud was so knowledgeable he made the experience to the Pyramids incredible! Would recommend him and this tour to anyone who wants to get the most appreciation out of ancient Egyptian history as possible.

Brilliant day tour for seeing the Great Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Egyptian Museum. Tour guide Rasha Yehia Mubarak was a gem, providing great commentary that enriched the visual spectacle of monuments and artefacts. Options to explore shopping along the trail were also made available, including for high quality ceramics and stone goods, Egyptian cotton clothing, herbal teas and cooking spices, and perfume essential oils. Probably the best tour I have ever done.

Mahmoud Fawzy and the driver were incredible. His depth of knowledge was encyclopedic at both the Pyramids and the GEM. I had been to Pyramids a few times over the last 30 years, but this was the best experience. We had an air conditioned car and lots of bottled water available. We took a ton of photos and Mahmoud was understanding to my needs and wants. He carried my backpack at the Pyramids and my purse at the GEM. He let me engage in my random tangents. I stopped to photograph the local baladi dogs at the Pyramids. With my limited Arabic, I made small talk with some young Egyptian girls and he took a picture of me with them and their family. At lunch I got distracted by a cute kitten and he gave her a little of his food. I might have snuck her some fries. Vegetarian options were available- yay. At the end of the tour he grabbed me an ice cream cone and another cold bottle of water. It was about 99 degrees outside- and I appreciated his kindness. If you are interested in learning more about ancient Egypt, Mahmoud Fawzy is the best guide, super knowledgeable and with kind heart.

It was a wonderful day with my teenage daughters. The guide was excellent and very passionate about Ancient Egypt. We came from Hirghada and the driver was great too. We discovered the puramids, went to see the Grand Egyptian Museum and had an authentic lunch. Highly reccommend! ❤️
