Overview

Wonder at the Great Pyramids of Giza and enigmatic Sphinx on this fascinating half-day tour of Cairo’s greatest treasures! Beat the crowds and midday sun with a prompt morning departure to drive to the Giza necropolis. Admire the gigantic Sphinx and the three great pyramids as your guide reveals the theories around the purpose and construction of these massive pharaonic tombs. Finish with an authentic Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant as you puzzle over what you’ve just seen! This tour is priced for a minimum group size of two travellers. A solo traveller may still book this private experience but will be charged the base rate for two travellers.

Itinerary

  • Great Sphinx

    Our day starts by seeing the guardian of the necropolis, the Sphinx (you know, the one with the missing nose!), which stands in front of the second Pyramid of Khepren. We will enter the Giza Plateau from the Sphinx Gate to beat the crowds to the site, and after seeing the Sphinx, we’ll walk to the mysterious great pyramid of King Cheops, where you can marvel at the sheer size of the construction, and try and formulate your own theories as to how it was built.

    1 hour

  • Gizeh Plateau

    Our private Pyramids tour continues to the second Pyramid of Giza, which is the second largest and the only pyramid that still carries part of its original casing. From there, we’ll continue to the third and the smallest of the Giza Plateau pyramids. And no visit to the Pyramids of Giza would be completed without stopping at the panoramic view point where you get to see the all the pyramids of Giza in the one spot (and take a photo like the ones you see in travel books – free of tourists! Well, almost…)

    1 hour

  • Cairo

    Leaving the amazing pyramids behinds, we’ll head back out to the streets of Cairo and stop by a local restaurant for lunch. We’ll be treating you to Koshary, a dish of rice, pasta, lentils, fried onions, and chili sauce, and a favourite amongst young local Egyptians.

Giza Pyramids

Published on Dec, 2023

I felt the Giza Pyramids were highly commercialized, however, thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Would highly recommend using a Guide, as they provide all the information you need and enhance the experience.

Amazing tour to Giza

Published on Nov, 2023

We had a truly amazing experience with our guide Noha who was knowledgeable and fun, and who adjusted the level and amount of information, the pace and the duration to exactly our needs. Very professional - highly recommended!

A most memorable experience.

Fantastic guide who was very knowledgeable and adapted to our personal interests very well. Could not have been better.

Pyramid tour

Published on Sep, 2023

Our tour with Mina was informative and fun. He seemed to enjoy the city, the historical sites and experience as much as we did. We would totally recommend Mina and our driver Mohammad. Thanks, shokran!

Private pyramids and sphinx tour

Published on Sep, 2023

The tour was amazing, and our guide Mina was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate and he had the answer to our questions. Mina then took us for a lovely lunch which was delicious. Really good tour and a great way to see and learn about the pyramids would recommend this to anyone coming and make sure to ask for Mina!
