I did the all-inclusive tour option with the inside of the Great Pyramid (Khufu/Cheops), lunch, guide and driver. I did not do the camel ride (personal choice) but got to get up close and take pictures.
I had the two Ahmeds for my tour. Ahmed the driver picked me up from the airport and gave me a warm welcome. Ahmed the guide was very knowledgeable, funny, and friendly. He explained the history of prehistoric and ancient Egypt thoroughly and told me many stories about the pyramids. We even took a deep dive into fringe archeology and the different theories people have. Both Ahmeds were great!
A pointer: For the all-inclusive option, there are two tickets: one to enter the site and another to enter Khufu/Cheops pyramid. Khafre pyramid was closed for regular visits during the time of my tour. Menkaure pyramid is a separate ticket, but it's easy to purchase at the automated kiosk. Be mindful that both pyramids are very cramped, narrow, hot, and urinous inside and they have very low ceilings and steep steps, so be careful if you have difficulty climbing.
Overall this tour was a great start to my trip. Both Ahmeds were very inviting and I got to see and learn a lot!

Pyramids and Sphinx Tour
The tour was excellent, we entered the Pyramids complex to see them up close and I had a great explanation and story about them, and finishing a traditional Egyptian meal plus the karim guide was very attentive and took spectacular photos.

Fantastic private discovery trip to pyramids and Sphinix by Travel Door Tours
I can only have good memories and reccomendation for this thrilling dicovery trip of pyramids and sphinx by Travel Door Tours. Mostafa , my travel guide for the day, was an excellent representative and spokesman. His command of english was perfect and knowledge of the place too. I got picked up ontime and delivered back to hotel on time too. We travel by car to the site and walked around in the area. The trip also included a camel ride and lunch. Under no circumstances, I felt unsafe or hurried to complete the trip. Mostafa gave me all the time I needed, he actually encoraged me to take my time in order to experiece the place. Mostafa gave me also lots of reccomendation on sellers and people approching you onsite. He was always in my proximity and alwasy helpfull with any equiries I might have had. Mostafa is also a lovely person to communicate with, so I really felt at easy with him. I will definetly book him again for my next trip to egypt. He was such a nice person to talk to, that I would reccomend his services to anyone while visiting Cairo. The trip was also very effordable and private one on one

Unforgettable Journey Through Time in Giza
Absolutely fantastic experience with our tour guide Mariam at the Pyramids! From start to finish, our visit was unforgettable. Mariam was incredibly knowledgeable, providing in-depth historical insights into the pyramids, the Sphinx, and ancient Egyptian culture that truly brought the sites to life.
She managed everything with ease, from avoiding the busiest areas to securing the best spots for photos, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves without feeling rushed. Beyond being professional and punctual, she was friendly and approachable, which made us feel comfortable asking questions and diving deeper into the history.
We ended our trip with a delicious lunch of Koshary. While it might not be everyone’s favorite, I enjoyed it, especially as a vegan. Our trip also included a camel ride, but we chose to skip it out of consideration for animal rights.
Highly recommend this experience.
