Cairo and Luxor Tours

Our reservations were managed by Hoda Gamal directly on WhatsApp which is incredibly kind. We made custom for Saqqarah, Dahhur, Memphis, Luxor, karnak, Hatshepsut, Valley of Kings, Abydos and Denderah. Punctuality was always there, the Francophone guides requested were always up to our expectations. A professional agency that I can only recommend. Thank you for your sense of organization. Thank you, Hoda.

I used Sun Pyramid Tours to organize my trip to Egypt with my family. I already had a clear idea of the route I wanted to take and I had booked flights and hotels myself. However, as I was travelling with my two children, ages 3 and 6, I wanted to be accompanied and taken care of on site, from A to Z. It was while booking on a website that I discovered Sun Pyramid Tours. The agency contacted me on WhatsApp and we then organised the whole programme together. Mariam, who was my interlocutor, was very responsive, flexible and good advice. The whole organization was done via WhatsApp and it was simple, fluid and efficient. We included in the program all transfers, Francophone guides and tours. Once there, we were perfectly taken care of by the teams: drivers, coordinators and Francophone guides in Cairo and then in Luxor. And finally, transfer to Hurghada. Overall, everything went well. As with any trip, there may be some adjustments along the way, but the agency has always been very responsive and found solutions quickly. Many thanks to the whole team for this organization, including Hasma, Youssef, and Momo.

We just came back from a nine day Egypt trip. Cairo , Aswan, Luxor , Sharm. They took care of everything from all airport pick ups , drop offs , private tours with cars and English speaking guides, dinner reservations, our vacation was hassle free and so comfortable , everything was on time and there was no issue at all , highly recommend them , specially in a city like Cairo which is so chaotic I am glad i dint have to deal with any random taxi drivers , getting scammed etc. no standing in lines at ticket counters or entrance at any major sites. We had a good experience overall. I communicated with Armia Amgad the whole time as our tour operator , Ahmed our guide in Cairo was the best .

Great service and tours. Guides were professional and did their best to ensure our honeymoon was amazing! Thank you so much :)

We were initially very skeptical about whether the booked trip worked as planned. BUT: We all agree that we will book here again should we come back to Egypt. The deployed guides (Mohamed on the Nile cruise and Amal in Cairo) were very friendly, reliable and very well trained - they also became friends in the week together! Two of us had problems with our stomach/intestines. Every time on the day of a transfer. The resulting necessary changes of bookings or change of plans was also TOP. For us uncomplicated and without significant additional costs! Thanks at this point to Ezzat!

We traveled with Sun Pyramids on an eight-day Egypt itinerary booked through KimKim. The historical sites themselves were extraordinary—pyramids, temples, tombs, and the Nile cruise were unforgettable—but the execution and guiding by Sun Pyramids frequently fell short. There were serious professionalism issues with multiple male guides. Two different guides showed us shirtless photos of themselves without any prompting. Another made a long explanation about why women should cover themselves by comparing women to chocolate bars left in the sun, then laughed and refused to answer when asked how men fit into that analogy. These moments were uncomfortable, unnecessary, and inappropriate—especially traveling with my 18-year-old daughter. Communication and planning were also major problems. We were repeatedly required to wake up at 4–4:30 a.m., only to wait hours for flights, boats, or site access. Ship departure times were inaccurate, which caused us to miss anticipated evening temple visits. We were often told things would happen “soon” (wifi, departures, schedules) that simply didn’t. Guides at times appeared disengaged, impatient with crowds, or more interested in smoking breaks than helping us adjust plans or explore alternatives. Aggressive sales tactics were constant and exhausting, including shop stops with extreme overpricing and vendors shouting into our cabin windows from boats while we slept. While we understand this is common in Egypt, there was little effort from guides to buffer or manage these experiences. One bright spot was our Cairo guide, Mary, who was knowledgeable, warm, and professional throughout. She demonstrated what excellent guiding in Egypt can look like. Egypt’s history is unparalleled, and we do not regret seeing these sites. However, Sun Pyramids needs significantly better guide training, clearer communication, and stronger expectations around professionalism and respectful behavior—particularly toward female travelers.

Very interesting trip! My driver and guide bring me to Dendera and Abydos and the were really professional! The guide speaks a very good german and he tell me a lot of interesting thinghs of the aegyptian culture. I also organize two transfers in Luxor and all was very well organized!!

We have lived a dream trip, visiting the main places of the country. It was a good idea to contact Sun Pyramids Tours, especially thank you for the treatment, availability and attention of Aya Gamal and one of her Spanish-speaking guides, Omar Saleh.

A wonderful experience on the Nile tour in ‘felucca’ at sunset. Wonderful crew and guide, you cannot leave Egypt without trying this wonder.

I visited Egypt on Nov 2025, and moved to Luxor from Cairo via sleep train and had nice sightseens at Luxor. It was planned by SUN PYRAMIDS Company. Mr.Omaru picked me at the Luxor Station smoothly, so there was no trouble at the station. After the tour of Luxor, Mr. Omaru brought me to the station and wait the train with me. I was so helpful because the station was so clouded. Aporecite the kindness of Omaru.
