A great day out at the pyramids

We, a family of four ( 2 adult daughters), had a great day out. Emad, our guide, was very welcoming. He had a great knowledge of ancient Egyptian culture, and imparted it with gusto, and humour! It was a long day to take in the pyramids of Gizah, Saqqara and Dashur, but the time just passed very quickly. It was also great to snatch glimpses of the countryside around Cairo. We felt very safe and well looked after, even in the Cairo traffic, which our expert driver negotiated with easy and confidence. All in all a great day out, highly recommended!!! Thank you Emad!!!! Matt & family, from Scotland

5 stars

Super recommended experience. Egyptologist and driver very kind and helpful. Emad, our guide, made us discover the history of the pyramids with passion and attention. If you want, there are also extra stops to get to know some super interesting local traditional shops. 5 stars!

You will be brought to perfume shop

We started at 8am and was picked up at the hotel. The driver picked us up and drove us to outside the entrance of the pyramids, where the guide Ibrahim joined us. The guide explained the history of the pyramids and Sphinx to us quite well and helped us took some nice photos. Downsides: the guide brought us to a perfume and papyrus museum / shop, and these items are outside the itinerary listed. That took me by surprised a bit (of course I read about these in the comments of this tour, but only remember these comments when I was brought to the place). Though I highlight there were no hard selling in either of the places. But it just feels like a bit of waste of time on my end. I suggest if these could be listed on the itinerary here, or communicated earlier to manage expectations that would be better. For information, the guide will bring you to the perfume shop right after visiting the Sphinx. You will exit the Sphinx and the guide will start walking through a few streets, and then arriving at shop.

Pay attention ! Even a guide you hire can scam you...

The guide was apparently not an official one (stuck to my partner at the gate to enter illegally while official guides are entering for free), did not behave properly (tried to scam us several times) and his knowledge was really poor. He tried to change the program to shorten it. The driver was however nice and friendly. We contacted the company to let them know but they denied everything. The customer service from Viator was however really efficient.

Operator response

The guide used the same gate which your partner used it .. becouse the guide wasn't interested to keep you waiting for him until he go to the gate which was designated for the guide for free....(and This does not mean that he not an official as you said) Moreover you visited two other sites the guide get in to this sites for free too. About what you said that the guide tried to scam you several times I wish your statement had been more precise and clear, instead of accusing the guide of fraud without any proof to support your claim. About what you said about the knowledge level of the tour guide I would like to tell you that this guide holding the official license from the ministry of tourism since ten years ago, And you didn't talk exactly about what make you decided that or which scale you used to decide that About what you said that the guide tried to change the program to shorten it, Most of the tourist attractions in Egypt close about 4:30 pm the guide is responsible to make a balance in between the sites which you will visit and the time which you will spend in each site to be able to visit all the site in the program before the close time .(and that doesn't mean that he want shorte the tour) The company responded to your contact through Viator customer service and we denied your misinterpretation of what happened The reply also included a full explanation of what happened during your tour and these why we rejected your refund request which you send through Viator customer service before. I hope my response this time has provided a sufficient explanation of what happened Wish you always all the best Kindly Regards

Highly recommended.

A great trip with tour guide Emad and driver Mohammad, punctual, professional and very pleasant. Visited the Great pyramids, Saqqara and Dahshour pyramids in the comfort of a car, didn't need to walk to much. Highly recommended. Very decent price. Definitely worth it.
