Our tour of the Giza Pyramids was absolutely unforgettable, and a big part of that was thanks to our exceptional guide, Ahmed. From the moment the tour began, Ahmed's passion for Egypt's rich history shone through. He was incredibly knowledgeable, explaining the history of the pyramids, the Sphinx, and the surrounding sites in a way that was both fascinating and easy to understand. Ahmed made sure we were comfortable every step of the way, gave us enough time to explore, take photos, and even helped us get the best angles! If you're planning to visit the Giza Pyramids, I highly recommend booking a tour with Sun Pyramid Tours.

I had a great experience with the private tour guide. The transportation was excellent—comfortable and reliable. The guide was knowledgeable about the history and shared interesting facts throughout the tour. The locations visited were well-chosen and made for a memorable trip. Highly recommend!
We did this tour with Mahmoud as our guide and Abdul as our driver and I can’t say enough about how wonderful the tour was. The van is clean, well maintained, and Abdul drove carefully and professionally. Additionally, Mahmoud was a true expert on the history and culture of the sites. We learned many new and wonderful things, and they even went above and beyond when I began to feel under the weather, driving me to a pharmacy for medicine, and then taking my family to an excellent clothing shop for some extra fashion shopping. I highly recommend this tour for all travelers, regardless of age. It’s great for everyone, and do yourself a favor- request Mahmoud and Abdul as your team!
Very interesting tour with a very knowledge tour guide Pola taking us around on our fist private tour. Has been a good fun and highly raccomended. Good driver Abd El Rahem pick us up very early morning and we had a 8 hours tour! Many thanks guys! Una fantastica giornata con un tour privato (guida Pola e autista), molte informazioni e molto disponibili in qualsiasi cosa. Grazie mille alla prossima.
We had an excellent day tour of all of the great pyramids, Memphis and Sakkara with our guide Mahmoud and driver Abdo. Mahmoud is so knowledgeable about the pyramids and Egyptian history and Abdo was a very safe driver (we really appreciated feeling safe on the crazy roads in Cairo)! The included lunch was delicious, even for this vegetarian! Mahmoud also took really great photos of us! I would definitely use sun pyramids tours again!
Great experience, would definitely recommend . Had a great time with my family , the guides were experienced and took the time to explain everything. They took great pictures for us and made us feel at home. Would defiantly reach out to them again if we would return to Egypt .

SUN PYRAMIDS TOURS, with Ahmed El-Sayed, operates from The Great Pyramid Hotel and does a wonderful job of providing affordable, knowledgeable and safe tours for guests. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Sakkara with Ahmed as our guide which included a visit the newly opened Tomb of Mehu as well as a trip to Old Cairo to visit the world famous centuries old mosques and awe-inspiring Coptic Churches. They also provided reasonably priced transportation for us to go swimming at the Meridien Hotel and Spa for a day in addition to providing transport for us to go to the Khan el-khalili bazzar for an evening. WOW...what an amazing experience in bartering that was! Our final venture with Sun Pyramids was a horse and buggy ride around the Giza pyramids one last time for an afternoon. FABULOUS!

An intense and spectacular weekend in the land of the Pharaohs 🇪🇬 Thanks to Rana, from Sun Pyramids Tours who organized all the visits perfectly ... and a huge thanks to our Guide Yasser, the tightrope walker Abdul and Abdo who accompanied us and followed us on every excursion ..... see you later !! 💪🇪🇬❤️🇮🇹
Beautiful tour that lasted about 9 hours. Our very competent and professional (and also friendly) guide Seyed explained to us the entire history of these archaeological sites in excellent Italian. In addition to the beauty of the sites visited, the lunch with typical local cuisine was also excellent. The driver was also very good. Highly recommended!!!
We visited beautiful places with the 3-day tour. From the pyramids to the markets. Guides always on time and prepared. Recommended.
Riding a camel at sunset in the pyramid area is something you will never find elsewhere and the pyramids of the sun to organize tours are really perfect
