I had about 12 hours on a layover in Cairo. I booked this tour and Ahmed reached out immediately to schedule things.
Ahmed and a driver picked me up from Terminal 3 at Cairo. The driver was with me all day and stored my luggage. Ahmed and the driver took me to the Pyramids, where I met Maria. She was with me until I went back to the airport.
This was a solo trip so lots of time with just me and Maria. She was fantastic - knowledgeable, had things planned out, and scheduled breaks so I could call my family.
In the time we had, we saw and entered the Pyramids, saw the Sphinx, visited an oil market, saw papyrus being made, went to the GEM and toured the museum, went to a spice market, and went back to the airport. It was a full day but I feel like I got a great taste of Egypt on my first visit!

An Incredible Two Days with Tariq – The Best Guide in Egypt!
Our trip to Egypt wouldn’t have been the same without Tariq, our wonderful tour guide. He took us on an unforgettable journey to the Pyramids of Giza and then the next day to the stunning El Fayum Oasis.
From the very start, Tariq impressed us with his deep knowledge of Egypt’s history and culture. He explained everything so vividly that we could truly imagine what life was like thousands of years ago. He also knew all the best photo spots and made sure we had time to enjoy the views without feeling rushed.
In El Fayum, Tariq showed us beautiful hidden places we would never have found on our own. He was kind, patient, and always made sure we were comfortable and safe. His passion for his country really shines through, and it made both days so special.
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide — Tariq is professional, friendly, and genuinely cares about giving his guests the best experience possible. If you’re visiting Egypt, especially the Pyramids or El Fayum, you should definitely book with him!

Wonderful tour guide, driver, and visits! What's included could be a bit clearer...
My tour guide Eslam was great and made the tour interesting and meaningful. Our driver was also very professional and helped us move along in a timely manner from one place to another.
As far as the tour administration, I was a bit disappointed that there was a disconnect about a couple items advertised on the Viator page (i.e. "a free camel ride" and "souvenir shopping at Khan el-Khalili bazaar.") The two were not actually fulfilled, and I particularly chose this tour, though it was more expensive, because it had the bazaar added. I would have maybe gone with a similar tour that was less expensive if I knew it would include all the stops.

Egypt Pyramid Tour with Ayoub
Ayoub hosted us on a long layover on our honeymoon and did an amazing job. He took us to the pyramids, the museum and a couple other spots around Cairo that were all great. Super knowledgeable about all things Egypt from past to present. Would highly recommend anyone coming to Cairo do a tour with him!

Great layover tour with Bazuka
We had fantastic private layover tour with Sayed our tour guide and Muhammad our driver. The whole experience was well organized with Sayed giving us an incredible history of each site we visited. What really made our day enjoyable was that Sayed navigated the busy tourist sites for us and ensured that we were not the subjected to any hard sale tactics by vendors. For instance, we were told the customary price for camel rides as well as tipping.
Sayed is exceedingly knowledgeable, very kind and considerate - having drinks and local snacks waiting for us when we entered the air conditioned private vehicle.
In addition to the pyramids and museum, Sayed also took us to trusted local business that ensured we spent our money on authentic papyrus, oils and jewelry.
Sayed also took photos of my wife and I so that we had great photos together at the various sites. We were given the opportunity to stop on a bridge overlooking the Nile so that we could get photos together. All these little things added up to be what was an incredible experience in a country with amazing history.
Would definitely recommend this incredible tour.

Great Day in Cairo
We planned a long layover when we were flying home from Dubai so that we could see the pyramids. We had an excellent day with Hosni as our guide and wonderful driver Ahmet. Hosni was very knowledgeable and Ahmet got us everywhere safely. Would highly recommend this tour if you have a day in Cairo.

Amazing experience to see one of 7 wonders!
It was very fast and convenient to book the tour. All my questions were answered over email promptly. I booked the the tour day before I was going to be in Cairo but they were still able to accommodate my requests. I paid a deport of 25$ USD to confirm my booking. With in few hours of confirming my booking my tour guide Hany Mubarak had added me on FB and sent me a message introducing himself. When I got out of the airport I had literally walked 10 temps before Hany recognized me and came to receive me. There was a clean, comfortable car provided with a professional driver. I was able to leave my carry on luggage in the car during the tour making the experience more comfortable. Hany treated me like an honored guest and took great interest in keeping my enjoyment at the top. He clearly communicated the plan for the day and allowed me to make changes based on what I wanted to do. It felt like going out to see the city with a friend rather than a tour guide. I landed early morning at around 6 am and got out of the airport by around 730. Our first stop was the pyramids. I also got a camel ride included in the package. I skipped the solar boat museum and went to the Sphinx. Next we went to a papyrus shop with paintings. After we had lunch with the view of the pyramids. In the afternoon we went to some souvenir stores and headed to Cairo Museum. Lastly on our tour we went to a bazar for the experience. I was safely dropped to the airport at the end of my tour. During my tour Hany paid for everything in local currency and I was able to pay him in USD at the end of the tour. Thanks Hany for making my trip fun and safe.

Day trips to Giza pyramids and Alexandria
I came to Cairo with my wife and two young children. Since picking up from airport to hotel check in and to visit the pyramids and Alexandria, Egypt Day Tour has been wonderfully efficient. Tour guide Mahmoud Badr was ever smiling, very knowledgeable about the history and explained everything nicely. I enjoyed their service very much
