This tour was an amazing experience! Ibo picked us up right on time from our hotel and we had a 25 minute camel ride to a spot in the Sahara desert with a view of the Pyramids of Giza. Then we stopped to have some tea

It was awesome. As I stepped into the unknown, I expected to feel fear—but instead, I felt an overwhelming sense of joy and empowerment as I rode the camel. The entire experience was truly unforgettable. Although rain had been forecast, we were fortunate—it held off during our visit. We set out at sunset, and the atmosphere was peaceful and almost magical, with hardly any other tourists around. Along the way, our guide treated us to traditional Egyptian snacks and tea brewed over an open fire. The tea had a rich, smoky flavor that made it absolutely delicious and added to the authenticity of the experience. Ibrahim was, without a doubt, the best tour guide we could have asked for. His deep knowledge of Egypt and the sites we encountered along the ride brought everything to life. I was initially nervous about getting on the camel, but Ibrahim’s encouragement and support helped me overcome my fear. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I am so grateful I chose to do it. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt.
As I stepped into the unknown, I expected to feel fear, but instead, I felt joy and empowerment while riding a camel. The experience was fantastic. Although it was supposed to rain, luckily, the rain did not occur during our visit. We went on our ride at sunset and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere without any tourists around. Our guide served Egyptian snacks, and we drank tea that was brewed over a hot fire, which gave it a smoky taste. It was absolutely delicious. Ibrahim was the best tour guide ever. His knowledge of Egypt and the things we saw during our ride to the pyramids gave tons of insight. I was scared to get on the camel but Ibrahim gave me encouragement and helped me overcome my fear. It was an unforgettable event. So glad I went and experienced this tour. I highly recommend it.
Our sunset camel ride in Egypt was truly one of the most memorable experiences of our entire trip. From the very beginning our tour guide, Ibo, went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience. From texting us ahead of time to ask if an earlier pickup would work so we could have the perfect view of the sunset, to suggesting the right attire since it would get cold in the evening- details that showed how much he genuinely cared about our comfort. We were also visiting during Ramadan, which made the experience even more special. Ibo explained the traditions and meaning behind Ramadan and it was clear how proud he was to share his culture and knowledge about Egypt with us. As the sun was setting, we had authentic Egyptian tea brewed in a metal teapot over the fire which made the moment feel even more traditional. Because we were out during sunset, we ended up breaking fast together. Ibo brought food so we could share the moment with him, and we all sat together and ate as the sun set. This was actually the last day of our trip to Egypt, and I can honestly say it was one of the best days we had there. Ending the trip with such a beautiful experience made it even more special for both me and my mom. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt- it was the perfect way to end our trip.
I can't say enough good things about this wonderful adventure with Giza Pyramid Tour by camel.Ahmed Saber was a wonderful travel guide and picked us up at our hotel and proceeded to tell us about the history of some of the pyramids in Egypt. He was very gracious in providing sodas and Waters for our trip through the desert.. we were picked up at our hotel and brought to the site and met the camel handle here who was very comforting and sweet... I was a bit afraid of the camels and getting on and off since it is a long way up and a long way down if you fall. They made me very comfortable and happy during the ride. We stopped in the desert and had a chance to take pictures have a sample of campfire Egyptian tea and view the Giza Pyramids and also see what fun those on the riding horse tours had running across the dunes and Sands of the desert... needless to say the sunset was beautiful and the time spent in the area with the camels was very relaxing... please if you want to experience this adventure book with this group since they will treat you like kings and queens!
Wonderful experience. Ibo was so knowledgeable about egyptian history and was so down to earth. He was super open and willing to share with us all about egyptian culture as well. This excursion was the most unique experience we had all trip & would do it a thousand times over. Book with Ibo!!!
Incredible guide, incredible tour, very original, tea on the dessert, camels, incredible day! Thanks
Absolutely fantastic tour! The guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the experience both fun and informative. Every stop was well-planned, and the pacing was perfect. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore and learn in a memorable way!
Very nice experience ! Wonderful and kindly ! Ibrahim is the best and the camel are so high ! The pyramid are very nice at the sunset a magic place for couple
Riding camels at the Pyramids of Giza at sunset was such a fun experience! The camels provided a memorable evening in a breathtaking location. Manar was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and friendly. Our driver Yousef got us everywhere safely and smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour to start our trip to Egypt!
Camel ride was interesting but uncomfortable. Viewpoint selected by camel driver was ok but they really should ask a photographer to help them select better viewpoints given direction of sunset and location of pyramids. Would have given a three or four star review but camel driver insisted on a $20 tip because he had the day off and had to come in. Didn't really understand the logic but the aggressive demand for a tip spoiled the experience.
What an exhilarating way to end our first day in Egypt and certainly a highlight of our amazing 18 day Egyptian adventure! We had a wonderful time from the moment we were picked up from our hotel through to being dropped off again later in the evening. Ibrahim was kind, respectful and entertained us with lots of facts and information about the landmarks and buildings that we passed. Arriving where the camels waited for us, we met Ali who led us out to the pyramids. We felt safe and comfortable all of the time. The whole experience was magical and will stay in our memories for a long time to come. We highly recommend this experience with Ibrahim and Ali!

Thank you very much for the very, very nice tour. The tour was wonderfully individual and the guide and the camel guide responded very well to all of our wishes. The pickup and return journey were very well organized. Everyone took a lot of time for us. Anyone who likes romance and sunsets with a magnificent view of the pyramids must definitely book this tour. Jens
I had the chance to have Ibo as a guide for a sunset camel tour. He was simply amazing for the whole duration of the activity, super knowledgable, professional and showed me a beautiful part of the city while providing so much information about the culture. I definetely recommend using Egypt Tours if you come to Cairo !

The guide for this trip is so knowledgeable and friendly. Sharing more information than just about this specific trip/tour about all of Cairo when asked. Easy to talk with and happy to chat as we waited for our delicious tea around the fire. He also brought us snacks to enjoy while we watched the sun disappear behind the dunes. The camels are sweet. I highly recommend this experience!
We really enjoyed seeing the Giza pyramids from the desert. Our guide and the camel staff did a wonderful job and everything was definitely well run and organised.
This was a surreal experience, we went for a fairly long ride on camel back with the best guide you’ll ever meet in Egypt. It did not feel touristic at all, we were just among local friends having tea in the desert … a truly magical afternoon. The Bedouin made a fire and gave us the nicest tea with fragrant local biscuits (still warm from the bakery), we witnessed the most amazing sunset and saw local girls and boys riding their horses and disappearing in the horizon. Ibo explained to us the story of the pyramids and made us fall in love with Egypt. To top it all, he took some fantastic pictures of us and helped us creating memories that we’ll treasure forever! We made a new friend, and could not recommend this tour more.
This sunset tour was beyond amazing. Even more amazing was Ibo as a tour guide. So knowledgeable and very insightful to Egyptian history. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to catch the sunset while looking at the pyramids. The whole experience was one of a kind!
Ibrahim, the guide, has such a kind welcoming soul. This tour is perfect way to spend the late afternoon in a peaceful, serene environment surrounded by spectacular scenery. There’s absolutely no rushing, Ibrahim provides all the details you need to understand the construction of the pyramids, yet you don’t feel overwhelmed with information… you’re left with ample time to take it all in at your pace.
Ibo our tour guide taught us so much about Egypt! I could listen to him talk for hours!! The sunset was the most magnificent viewing I've ever seen. We had tea prepared over an open fire while awaiting the sunset.
Our guide Khalifa, driver Ameerah, and Bedouin camel hitters gave us a wonderful experience. Our guide and photographer, Khalifa, took a lot of great pictures. The Bedouin made us a flavorful drink at a rest stop. Amula provided pleasant conversation while driving. The camel ride was longer and more enjoyable than I had imagined and was an experience to be enjoyed on its own. I can completely recommend this tour!
The sunset camel tour of the Pyramids is a must do! Ibrahim was prompt, courteous, friendly, and best of all knowledgeable! He gave us an amazing history lesson on Cairo on the way to the camels. Once on site Ibrahim also served as artistic director for our personal photo shoot. An amazing time!!! Highly recommended
This was one of our favorite experiences we had in Egypt! Our guide was amazing and so knowledgeable! He kept us entertained the entire time. The camel ride in the dessert with the pyramids in the background was beautiful. Our guide took such great pictures of us in the dessert to help us remember our trip. I would highly recommend this excursion if you are headed to Cairo!
Our guide for this trip was absolutely amazing. His stories and commentaries about our trip and Egypt were so interesting. He made us feel like family and kept us entertained the whole time! I would highly recommend taking this excursion if you are headed to Cairo!
I had really great communication before we even went on the tour. The staffs were helpful and friendly. I felt that the price is too high for what we actually experienced
The whole experience was amazing and the guide was even better! He was very kind, friendly, helpful and he took beautiful photos and videos for us. I really appreciate his approach. Absolutely worth it.
Excellent guide and fun camel ride. Our guide answered all our questions cordially. This is an event which should be a “must do” when in Cairo.
To anyone traveling to Cairo this is a must do. My tour guide Ibrahim contacted me the day before asking if we could meet early so that we could get some more time before the sun actually sets. Ibrahim picked me up on time and we set off to meet the camel handler on the way there we had a very good chat about different topics to do with Egypt. We then climbed on to are camels and set off. This tour is outside of the main pyramid complex it is where a lot of locals go to ride camels, horses and quad bikes where they can enjoy watching the sunset themselves. On the ride Ibrahim continued to tell me about the history of Egypt he has such a great knowledge and he speaks very good English so no issues trying to understand anything he was telling me. We found a nice spot at top of a hill where both Ibrahim and the camel handler took some great photos and videos for me to remember the trip by. We then sat taking in the beautiful view of the sun setting while the camel handler made us Bedouin tea which tastes amazing. We discussed plenty while we sat drinking are tea and took some great photos. After the sun had set and it started getting a bit dark we made are way back to the car and he dropped me back off at my hotel. This is definitely a tour I would do again I hope to go again. I would really like to thank Ibrahim for this great tour by the end of the tour felt like I had new friend and hope to see him again in the future.
Manar was an absolutely delightful tour guide. Very knowledgeable, sharing lots of interesting history and answering any & all questions. Shady was a very fun camel guide, taking a lot of fun photos and caring for the camels. Riding camels in the Sahara with the pyramids and sunset was an unforgettable experience. Extremely pleased we booked this tour!!!
Ibrahim was a wonderful guide who had a ton of knowledge of ancient and modern Egypt. The camel ride was fun and the family who took us was delightful. Ibrahim stayed with us the whole time and took wonderful photos and videos of all of us!
Ibrahim was an incredible guide! He had an amazing knowledge of Egyptian history and modern-day practices. He was also an incredible photographer and filled with wonderful recommendations for restaurants and activities. He communicated very well over what’s app before the tour and was even early picking us up (and being very patient with us when one of our party was running late). The camel ride itself was fun and safe, and the family who took us out was deeply hospitable and welcoming. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough!
7 days & Amazing is a under statement! He was fun professional & knowledgeable & a great photographer!!! HE MADE THE EXPERIENCE GREAT! Thank you so much !!!!!!! You deserve more than 5 stars !! The passion he has for his culture is beautiful
It was kind of short felt, and the pyramids are far away which I didn’t know. For $50 and you weren’t free to ride the camel. You were dragged the entire time which was okay. What made up for it was the pictures the guide took. He was great.
This was my second trip to Egypt and it was a very quick one, so I decided at the last minute to book a tour to get a different perspective of the Giza Pyramids. My guide, Ibrahim, picked me up promptly at my hotel, and he and his driver drove me to the place where I would meet my camel. During the drive, Ibrahim shared some Egyptian history but did so in a way that was entertaining and conversational. Once we arrived, he patiently taught me the proper way to ride a camel and he and I set off to ride camels into the desert. I can’t describe the experience. It was beautiful, fun, and a little scary all at one time! Eventually, we arrived at the pyramids. Ibrahim asked for my phone and before I knew it, he was snapping pics and I ended up with an impromptu photo shoot! Who knew my tour guide was actually an amazing photographer. The pics he took of me and the scenery were stunning and he made sure I had amazing memories. After taking pics, we sat down in the sand and had tea before riding our camels back to the car. Overall, we had a lovely afternoon and I highly recommend Ibrahim for any and all of your tour guide needs in Egypt. Not only is he a consummate professional, I consider him a friend!
My friend and I did the sunset camel ride with the view of the pyramids. Our tour guide, Hema, was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. He showed us a great time, and we made a new friend in Egypt. I highly recommend this tour and any tour Hema leads!
Super Guide, sehr flexibel, hat sich viel Zeit fuer uns genommen, Abholung sehr pünktlich, alles bestens
Amira, a very intelligent woman with a lot of culture and command of Spanish. The experience was incredible. Not only is it a camel ride, it is an experience not to be missed as you watch the sun set with a glass of tea in your hand.
