This tour was great. I got to see everything that I wanted to see. The tour guide was very friendly and laid back. It was not in the typical rushed fashion that most tours are when you go with large tour groups. If you do not want to be rushed and, you just want a private tour and, time to take in the beauty of it all then please go with this tour.

The best way to see these sites, no fuss, in your own time, great guide, ask what you want you want to know. Air conditioned car. Very interesting.

This was the HIGHLIGHT of our trip. Our guide was VERY knowledgeable and even helped us get a camel right at the pyramids. Though not the most famous, Sakkara was our favorite!

Well informed guide and good driver. Travel across Cairo to the Pyramids is tiring for all, maybe Viator could pass this to the Egyptian authorities, not Viator's fault of course!

The trip was fantastic! It was great not to be part of a big group and to have the undivided attention of the tour guide. We also got to travel in the comfort of an air conditioned mini bus and could tailor the amount of time spent at each attraction to suit us which was great. The tour guide was very helpful and knowledgeable and made sure that we didn't get hassled by any hawkers. She also gave us personal time at each attraction and was on hand to take photos of us whenever we wanted. We would definitely recommend this trip!

I enjoyed this tour. We started with the step pyramid of Djoser then onto the Pyramids of Giza, Memphis, and Sakkara and the Solar Boat. All were absolutely awesome. Must see.

Our tour guide was absolutely amazing. She is not only a great person but knows everything about Cairo and the pyramids. I would definitely recommend this tour. In fact, if going back to Egypt tomorrow, I would sign up for it again! The private van and driver were nice. I went in January but I am sure in the summer the air conditioning really is a blessing!

It was a great full-day tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Definitely worth doing especially if you don't have enough time in Cairo.

If I could give 5 stars for this tour I would, it was fantastic. The Pyramids and Sphinx are even better in real life than they look in pictures. We spent alot more time at each place than we would have if we had done a big bus tour and we were able to stop in a great Government Papyrus store to get souvenirs we knew were genuine. Our guide was awesome and made the history of Egypt fascinating. Also good to get see all the sites in the same area in the same day instead of wasting time crossing from one side of Cairo to the other.

The chance to go inside one of the pyramids was brilliant even though not much to see, and being able to do a camel ride that the guide helped us organise was fun. The pyramids are awe-inspiring and I really enjoyed the guides retelling of the history of the pyramids.

Excellent, you do the desert sightseeing at once and don't loose time. Excellent guide, nice lunch, perfect timing.
