Budget-friendly Giza Pyramids & Sphinx Tour

My mother and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour and our guide. He was very accommodating to our wishes. The reason I gave this tour only three stars is because it was not the tour I booked. When I contacted Viator I was told that the tour had been updated and I experienced the updated tour. That is not acceptable to me to be given a different tour without prior notice from Viator or the tour company themselves. I know what my mother and Iike and do a lot of research to set up what we enjoy. Because we did not have prior notice, there were a few things that I wanted to do that I missed out on.

We had an incredible experience visiting the Pyramids, and it truly wouldn’t have been the same without Haidy. From the moment we arrived, she guided my wife and me through every step with patience, knowledge, and genuine care. The lunch she arranged was also fantastic; a perfect break in the day and a great way to experience local food. She made our visit smooth, memorable, and truly special.

The tour guide was supposed to pick us up from our hotel and never showed up. My husband and I were stranded at our hotel with our three young kids and missed the one activity we had booked and paid for in Egypt. Horrible experience and no one will respond to my emails asking for a refund.

Our tour guide was okay at first, but she took us to two places off the tour, that we were not comfortable with and Tried to sell us on oils and papyrus after the tour. Also, did not have too much knowledge on the pyramids themselves— we felt like we could have downloaded an audio guide and just done it ourselves.

What way to see Pyramids of Giza then by camel back. There is no other way to experience it better. And this tour gave us just that. Got to see the most famous Pyramid in the world and was amazed with beauty. I love Egyptian history and our guide made me understand it even better. Great tour and experience, Egyptian people are so humble and nice and made us feel like " royalty. "From a Texas USA family. barak allah..

I HAD THE GREATEST TIME! the tour guide Ahmed was very humble and nice. It was great to have a person who understood the historical site and was able to perfectly explain to you. It was overall a fun and learning experience! Very very very recommended. It was so much fun that I went twice! :)

WARNING !!! SCAMMER ALERT . I tried to change my tour date but their was a error on the website .I contacted AHMED to change my tour date and he told me to pay him 50$ cash per person if we meet!!!!!! Even after i said no he continued to harass me about lowering the price instead of just changing the tour date because he was already paid with the website.! DONT GIVE THIS MAN MONEY

The tour is well planned and comfortable. You see the Pyramids, ride a camel, see how papyrus is done and more. Our guide Loay was fun and helpful. He made our experience really nice. Would recommend

It was a great trip and our guide Mimo was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ He was so knowledgeable and very good English speaker. Our driver was great and safe and always had a smile. I would recommend this trip to anyone. If you are lucky maybe you will get Mimo as your guide.

I’ve been to the Pyramids and Sphinx on 14th of March! I have been there with my friends and Mimo!!! That trip was wonderful! Mimo is the best guide in Egypt! He has good English, told us a lot of facts about the Pyramids and Egypt! I so liked that! Thank you very much Mimo!

Was an excellent day. We started with an hour in a felucca in the morning on the Nile...was so peaceful and the weather was perfect! We then toured the Giza pyramids complex and our guide, Gamil Gamal was knowledgeable, interesting and had some fun facts. The Sphinx was very cool to tour as well. I throughly recommend Gamil as a tour guide as he made the day fun and interesting. Will have to book Saqqara and Memphis with him the next time.

MIMO!!! We love you MIMO!! He speaks amazing English and other languages!! He was very nice and respectful!!! We will be friends for life because he is so sincere. MIMO!! You are the best travel/tour guide!! He showed us many things and gave us the best information. We feel SAFE with MIMO!! We also had a very good driver in Cairo traffic!! Ask for MIMO!! The best tour guide!! We come from America and we will visit again with MIMO!

The most fun I've had on a vacation. Our guide Ibrahim Rashad was more than we could ask for. He was well informed on Egyptian history and current events. He was so professional, so nice and so friendly! he even took pictures Myself and my group were so impressed that we booked another tour the next day. When my friends come to Egypt I will absolutely recommend this tour with my new friend Ibrahim Rashad. Thank youu!!!!

Ibrahim Rashad the tour guide is amazing ! Very knowledgeable !!! I highly recommend booking with them !!! The driver T is very nice !! I felt safe the whole time !

Meeting the pyramids was a dream come true! Specially with the assistance from our tour guide Mohammed Mahmoud, from Let’s Explore Egypt company, who was extremely kind and gentle since first minute, always willing to help. And of course giving us all the information regarding the whole history behind those constructions. Couldn’t be more satisfied!

My experience here was amazing!! Our tour guide was Ibrahim Rashad along with a great driver “tito”. I felt extremely safe and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and kind. I highly recommend Ibrahim, whom at the end of the day became pur great friend. 🙂

Fantastic time with tour guide Amir! Not only was he extremely knowledgeable about the monuments and history of it all , he was super kind and always made my daughter and I feel safe. He took incredible pictures for us with all the monument (love the kissing sphinx pic, thanks Amir) and always gave us more than enough time to view and do all we wanted to do. It was also great to experience going into the Bent pyramid with him(as it was his first time in there as well). We were able to walk into all the pyramids of our choosing too. Camel ride was so fun. They also pulled over for us to try some fresh Egyptian bread.Loved how he informed us that we could contact him for any thing else or had any questions during our stay in Egypt. Wonderful experience and we would definitely book again with this company. 😀

Today we had experienced an amazing tour with Amir ( tour guide) and Said ( driver). It actually started yesterday once we had confirmed the booking he reached out to me via WA to introduce himself and to confirm the pick up time. Amir did such and amazing job on our way to the Pyramids he already explained so much about Egyptian History. His English is fluent and he is well spoken. Therefor making it much easier to communicate. Once we arrived at the pyramids he knew the exact spots to take picture etc and the man has PATIENCE. He took like 100 pictures of me. Overall he tribute to our day in such a way that it felt I was spending the day with a friend. He is really professional and good in what he do. THANK YOU AMIR 🙏🏻

Thank you Bossi for guided tour around Giza plateau. Very exiting tour. We didnt go inside the pyramid and we skipped the camel ride that was included in the tour, we prefered not to. Thank you for great service. Kjell and Carina from Sweden.

I was searching the net for a Giza pyramid day tour and i stumbled in this gem. It was a last minute booking but i got a quick response from the staff. Gamil Gamal was our tour guide and was quick to respond to our needs. He was never late to pick us up in the hotel and was by very professional in handling the entirety of our tour. He speaks English fluently has vast knowledge of the egyptian history & practically could answer all your queries. The highlight of our trip was the camel ride — both fun & exciting. We also had a great time in the perfume/essence shop & the papyrus art shop. We really enjoyed his company & most importantly he follows all the necessary COVID19 precautions. If you want a hassle free trip don’t hesitate to book this tour, it will all be worth it!

Now is the right time to experience Egypt! Ancients sites are not crowded and weather was perfect! Mr. Gamil our legit local tour guide was very accommodating and kind. We learned from him a lot about Egyptian history from him while giving us a stress free travel. He can communicate in english so well. Mr. Gamil is indeed a gentleman who always open the door for us, sprays alcohol and takes creative shots! Mashallah!

An excellent tour experience. The communication with the tour guide Mohamed Mahmoud the day before the tour(booking date) is very polite and welcoming also with the day of the tour. They arrived 30mins before the pickup time in my location with the driver Gad who is nice also, the car is nice and clean. Mohamed is very knowledgeable with the history and explains everything in a way that anyone can easily understand and they are very accommodating and friendly and he took amazing photos as well. I didnt felt alone even if I went solo. Also, free lunch is good and he let me choose what to eat.

It was a well organized trip. Ibrahim was the tour guide and he brought us to some other places after the pyramids and Sphinx and camel ride because we had some time. There were no hidden surprises. I feel like it was best to do all this with a tour guide because there were no issues getting in anywhere and he told us what to expect. We had a great time overall and I would definitely book another experience again.

We had very good time with this tour. Mimo our guide was very nice and gave us a lot of information. Unforgettable moment to see the pyramids and fun to ride a camel!

One of the best trip I have ever in my life , I joined the tour with my friend , we had our guide his name Ahmed he was friendly guide and Excellent for his job thanks for this company 😀

Had the greatest time with these guys I highly recommend Mohammed and Ahmed had fun with and laughed. Use these guys they are the best. I will book more tours with them.

My guide Hosni was great at giving me a detailed tour of the pyramids. He explained very clearly the history of pyramids and was a great photograper. Enjoyed all aspects including camel ride, pyramid tour, and sphinx.

Had great time with our tour guide MR (EYGPT)ABRAHAM,he was excellent n easy going n knew his history about the whole site,very good value Cheers Steveo &Robyn

We had a great time on our tour! Mustafa was an excellent tour guide: very friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable! He took excellent photos as well! In retrospect, I wish I had chosen a full-day tour because I would have liked to spend more time at the Pyramids, but anyone wanting to only go for a half-day, this is an excellent option! Highly recommendable!

This tour was 100% worth my time. Mona and Driver Hassan was amazing. Very good with pictures and very informative. It changed my whole view on the history of Egypt. Both of them know the country very well and are very good people. I felt very comfortable and they listened and educated me on everything. Even gave me recommendations for my next trip to Siwa! 5/5 highly recommend. Definitely worth the money.

We had a great time and were well taken care of by Tour Guide Mona and Driver Tamer. They were on time and highly professional. We highly recommend this travel company

Spent half day with Ahmed Kamel and had a fantastic time. Was very knowledgeable and fitted a lot into the limited time I had. Highly recommended.

We had an amazing day with Fatima! From the start she was caring, patient, and kind! She was very knowledgable and passionate about the rich history of Cairo! She showed us a great time and made us feel safe and secure. She was honest and upfront and assured we were not being scammed. She picked the perfect place for lunch which was local cuisine. She was patient with our children and captured numerous kodak moments without us prompting her. She is truly the best tour guide I've ever had! You won't be disappointed with Fatima!

My husband's dream since he was 7 years old was to see the pyramids. Honestly, I was a little scared of flying to Egypt because everyone just talked about how unsafe it was and all this crazy things that now I can confirm ARE NOT TRUE. Also, I had the most wonderful guide I could have ever asked for, like seriously. We had booked a half day tour and decided to change it to a full day. Fatima explains you everything in such a way you don't get bored, makes you laugh all the way and gives you all the time you want to take photos and make stops with the best attitude possible. I really feel I left not a guide but a friend in Egypt. The best company, the best service, the best everything. If you are traveling this is your place.

This trip was perfect and exactly what we were looking for! Four friends and I booked the full-day private tour with Zenab as our guide. She and her driver picked us up at our hotel and took us to all the pyramids. Along the way Zenab provided us with history and facts of the area, as well as what to expect at each site, with pro tips like going down into the pyramid before getting to Giza (free and less crowded). She also let us know to keep an eye out and keep moving from those trying to take advantage of tourists. The private tour included stops at a carpet making school and shop (no pressure to buy, but half of our group ended up getting something), a papyrus shop, and an authentic lunch, which was delicious. We skipped the perfume stop (as we were all guys). The tour also included a camel ride, which was all pre-arranged and facilitated by Zenab once we got to Giza. That was a really cool highlight! And of course, we stopped and took photos in front of the Sphinx. Its a full day of sightseeing and cultural experiences. I would definitely recommend booking through Bes Egypt Tours. I had an issue with my bags not arriving at the airport and Zenab helped me locate a phone to dial a local number, since I could not get through on my mobile. She was a fantastic tour guide!
