Overall not as described, get a private tour, this is shopping/exploitation of tourists tour with less than 90 minutes of seeing the pyramids. Overall the experience was disappointing on this tour, our guide and assistant were 5*’s helpful, kind and informative but operationally it could have been better planned as we arrived in the Giza Pyramids at 3:55pm just before they closed at 4pm - so this trip is more of site seeing than connecting and experiencing and taking in Pyramids, also 4 shopping stops in overpriced venues. From this I had to book a second trip to the Pyramids of Giza only - this time through cruise company, as I was left disappointed ultimately when I arrived back at the ship - it was a whole day wasted in beautiful Egypt. This trip would be better advertised as Pyramids and Shopping - spent more time in shops than the pyramids. As well as advertising that the trip started at one time, with people with tickets from 7am to 9am - we didn’t get to start on my time due to this. The only pyramid we got enough time was the Step Pyramid which was from 11:55am - 12:43pm. For reference on how little time (time stamps from photos) we had in Giza, Camel Ride 6 minutes on the camel (16:02 - 16:08) which YOU still have to pay for on arrival. Only 2 Pyramids out of 9 in Giza (16:27 - 16:32), The Sphinx (16:37 - 16:41) before getting shouted at in Arabic by the staff of the Pyramids.

It was a scam! After a torgerouse 3 hour bus ride we did NOT get into the pyramid or the sphynks temple! But the tour guide did bring us to: a perfume factory a papyrus factory and a souvenir shop TOTAL WASTE OF TIME AND WE WANT OUR MONEY BACK! Chris Parent [email protected]

It was hard to find the bus from the port. The bus itself was very old and the air conditioner was either freezing cold or warm with not much room in your seats- that was the uncomfortable part. Sam was great, and they explained so much history to us-gave us plenty of time to explore at each stop, the camels ride was an experience in itself and they took amazing pictures for us. the lunch was stop was perfect!. Let us shop a little bit, all in all a great day but also a long day! They kept us hydrated too. Thank you so much for a wonderful day! From CA USA

We had a private car from Alexandria port to Cairo and met our tour guide, Sara who was very accommodating to guide us to the Saqqara and Giza pyramids, camel ride, Egyptian restaurant for lunch, and even a few more shopping stops when we had extra time. The food was delicious by the way. Our driver, Mahmoud did not speak English but he was very nice as well. After spending the whole day with them, I felt like we were all family by the end. This was the best way to see Cairo and its main attractions within 12 hours (including travel time). I highly recommend and would book again.
