We were picked up by our guides Nour and George for around 9:20am instead of 9am. There was a slight delay as they could not find our hotel. Google maps would not show it so it is not their fault. The private driver was great, in 40 degree heat he made sure we were kept cool in the car and that we didn’t need too far to each location.

We made our way to our first destination the Saqqara. Our guide brought us a falafel wrap, Egyptian coffee and water on the way.
Please note the speed bumps in Egypt are no joke, we nearly bumped our heads off the ceiling a few times! If travelling with children I would advise your guide to take it slower.

Our guide Nour was very knowledgeable about each site. It was quite hard to understand her because of her accent at times however we did understand around 80% of what she was saying.
Nour took the best pictures and knew all the spots!
It was also good because there are a lot of scammers at these locations. They did seem to back off because they knew Nour.
I would say the negative is that we only spent around 20 minutes at every location. The interinary shown does not take into account the travel time to each location and time spent at shops.

Around half way through the tour we stopped off for some shopping. We got some tea and coffee here. I did not feel pressure to buy anything however we did. Simply because Nour only took us to places that are approved by the government so no scams. It is a nice break especially when you have been in the heat all morning however I felt like we spent more time here than some of the attractions.

After this in the afternoon we visited the pyramids of Giza. The tour felt rushed at this point. It was very busy and hot at this point. Nour took great pictures but again we were only here for around 10 minutes.
Then we went for a camel ride. This was really enjoyable, I had fun even though initially I was scared at first.
Note: the camels did have flies near them which attached to my clothes. I would bring a change of clothes just in case.

After this we went for a late lunch at around 2/3. We got a mixed grill at this place which was very nice. Drinks are not included with this was was disappointing as it did not mention we did would need to pay extra for drinks.

We were then dropped off home. Just want to say that Nour did help us with an extra request of finding an ATM so thanks.

Overall, I think this a great tour for people to get all of the major sites in one day. It also is much safer going with a guide and you have a driver that takes you to each location.

I did knock a star off for drinks. One bottle of water and Egyptian coffee is simply not enough in the Egyptian heat. I think this needs to be clearer so people be prepared or the tour guides should offer more.
Also the tour felt very rushed in the afternoon and it seemed like we were not getting our moneys worth.

My son and I had an incredible experience today at the pyramids and it is attributed to our wonderful knowledgeable guide, and our driver. They made our experience an exceptional one due to their vast knowledge, friendliness, flexibility, and downright southern hospitality in northern Egypt. I don’t know if I can say enough positive things about either one of them in this review because they were just incredible and made our time here a very comfortable one. Today’s experience made our trip a memorable one that we will not forget.

Our driver Desoky was on time, very friendly, generous, invited us to Egyptian coffee, showed us everywhere in Cairo and Giza. His driving skills are excellent and he made sure we were safe and good the entire time. When I come back to Egypt I want him as my driver. I highly recommend him. 5 stars!

Eman Hassan was our tour guide for the day and she was very friendly, kind and fun to get to know and be around. She was patient and explained a lot of Egypt history in our tour. She made sure we were ok and showed us so many wonderful places. We became friends and I will be contacting her when I come back to Egypt! Highly recommend. 5 stars!

Amazing experience! Our guide was amazing and gave us a background on everything that we see. We saw everything at our own pace and had time for shopping

My wife and I had a wonderful time. The tour guide is knowledgeable in Egyptology and easy going, pleasant. The driver was also very pleasant to work with. We especially like the camel ride and the Saqqara pyramid.
