VIP Private tour to Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx

We actually flew from Cyprus where we were holidaying and stayed a night at a hotel. We were late on arrival and Ahmed was waiting for us. He led us swiftly to the Visa kiosk ($25 dollars per person cash only) and through customs to the waiting van. We met our Egyptologist (I was a little sceptical about that but as it turned out Tito knew his subject inside out) and straight to Cairo Museum. The aeroplane was late and Tito took us on a whistle stop tour of the most important exhibits. That was brilliant as he put them in context and explained the significance of each. The next day we went to see the Pyramids and Sphinx. Tito arrived promptly as organised and again an excellent and knowledgeable guide. He ensured we got to the airport on time. We picked up Ahmed on the way and he ensured emigration went smoothly. Would definitely recommend again, excellent service and staff at very reasonable cost. The Egyptian people would seem to definitely want us to start visiting again and in my opinion now is the time to go. Both attractions not busy and no problem with hawkers or scammers.

Tour taken 21 April. Tour was booked to start at 9.00am but the first thing the guide said to me was that I was late and this was at 8.45am Throughout the whole trip which only lasted about 1 and 1/4. hours I had the impression that the guide needed to be elsewhere We did not want to enter The Great Pyramid so we were rushed onto the next one, not even given time to walk up to it. A brief stop to look from a distance at the other pyramids, rushed passed the solar boat museum. We stopped at the Sphinx, the guide did not even bother to get out of the car but left it to to the driver to take photos of us in front of it. After leaving the area the guide left the car saying that we could use it for 30 minutes and then disappeared. I should have booked this tour with the company who provided our Cairo city tour which was exceptional.

To see the Pyramids and Sphinx in person is impressive. Not so much the Sphinx, but the Pyramids are unique and one of a kind. I had the tour guide and a driver. The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the Pyramids. I really enjoyed the tour.

<p>The tour guide was very rushed and didn't explain anything.<br/> Was always on her mobile phone and left us to our own devices even though this was a private, guided tour.</p>

<p>I loved this tour! Andrew, the Egyptologist guide, was really great - full of interesting facts about everything we saw from the Pyramids and Sphinx to Cairo in general as we drove from my hotel to Giza . Also he gave a great briefing about how to deal with the souvenir sellers which meant I wasn't troubled at all.<br/> The Pyramids and Sphinx were awe-inspiring and I chose to go inside the Great Pyramid which was incredible, if a little cramped :-<br/> As a female travelling alone I would definitely recommend this tour, felt very safe and was a once in a lifetime experience! Thank you!</p>

family visit cheap tickets 120 Egyptian pounds it's not even 2.50 euros per person

<p>This was the perfect tour for me, a woman in my mid-seventies traveling alone. It was nice that I was the only one on the tour as I could spend as much or as little time as I wanted at each location. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. It was like taking the tour with an Egyptologist. It is impossible to describe what it is like to see the pyramids for the first time. Even though I saw them with my own eyes and touched the stones with my own hands I still could not believe I was actually there. I even went down inside one of the pyramids..... not for the squeamish or the claustrophobic. After visiting the pyramids and the sphinx, we stopped at a papyrus store in Giza. If you do this, bring your credit card because you will want to buy everything. Then the tour guide took me to a shop that specialized in metal objects because I told him I was looking for a very specific metal plate. I spotted exactly what I wanted as soon as we walked in the shop. I could not have been more satisfied with this whole adventure.</p>

<p>We booked very last minute, but South Sinai Travel accommodated our request. Our tour guide Ahmed was wonderful, he was very warm and made us feel welcome and safe as we toured the pyramids and the Sphinx.</p>

<p>Had my first visit to Egypt recently for business but I managed to get a day off so that I could see the sights. After looking at a few operators I decided upon viator and I wasn't disappointed. Received a text the night before to confirm who my guide would be and what time we were to meet. My guide was excellent, very informative, patient and spoke excellent English. The tour itself was great, extensive tour of the pyramids and sphinx as well as an optional camel ride which although touristy was really good fun. I also opted to have an extended tour of the Egyptian museum which was not to be missed. Really great tour that I would highly recommend to anyone.</p>

<p>Manar and Ivraim were the BEST!!! traveled solo for work and wanted full day tour of cairo, but safety was a concern. After visiting Cairo, I will never think about safety again. I never felt anything but safe. </p> <p>Manar was waiting for me lobby and I could immediately tell I was in good hands. We visited the famous souk and neighboring streets with beautiful architecture, the Cairo museum, local shops of my choosing I choose essential oils but there were 5 options then a wonderful authentic lunch were I got to dress in Egyptian garb, then the pyramids and sphinx, followed by a camel ride. It was such a wonderful day that I will never forget! </p> <p>Manar was super intelligent, well spoken english, and an expert in Egyptian history, architecture, and culture. </p> <p>Our driver, Ivraim was always close by which was impressive since he wasnt allowed to stay parked in front of most places. He is also very kind and friendly. </p> <p>Cant wait to use this company again!!!! I highly recommend!!</p>
