Our guide Mimmo was there on time: while reaching the pyramids he gave us a lot of information on Egypt and Cairo. The Experience was very well worth it, easy to arrange if you wish to visit the pyramids in one day while stayimg in Sharm, since the pick up/drop pff at the airport works just perfectly. Mimmo is very knowledgeable, and his driver very kind: i would highly recommend it!

Pros: Pick up and drop off was good, taxi was comfortable. Spend ok time at Giza. Yaya was knowledgeable when asked question. Lunch was good. Cons: felt rushed through places, camel ride was advertised 30mins and it actually lasted 10mins max. We spend more time in two shops then actual sites. Sphinx Literally was 1 min view from the bridge, few photos and off we went. Overall: we felt we payed for taxi ride then guided tour

The guide Amina was outstanding and the driver was nice and patient. Thanks for the experience. I do have to say the the last shopping store they took me was a rip off but I was too tired to argue. Nonetheless I really enjoyed myself

We had a great day at the pyramids and it was stunning to see them in person. Our tour guide Eraky is a very trustworthy and cheerful person with a lot of knowledge. He guided us through the day and showed us all the important corners. Moreover, Eraky came to pick us up on time at the airport and brought us back punctually. It was a private tour with a driver and we spent about 6 hours. I would like to thank again for the tour and would highly recommend it.

We had the most amazing time on our 12-hr layover in Cairo. We chose a tour of the pyramids through viator. Our tour guide, Zenab, picked us up outside of the airport very promptly. She walked us to her car where we met our driver, Hassam. Zenab was one of the most helpful and knowledgeable tour guides we have ever come across. Her knowledge of Cairo, the pyramids, the culture, etc. was extraordinary. We very much enjoyed our time with her and would highly recommend her to others traveling to/through Cairo. This is a must tour!!
