All Giza Tours & Excursions in 2026

This tour was absolutely amazing—an easy 11/10 overall. I booked the “All Inclusive & GEM” option, and it was completely worth it. I was traveling alone and initially worried that I might get bored, feel rushed, or be pressured to buy things during the tour. What happened was the complete opposite, mainly because of my incredible tour guide, Ahmed Elsayed. Ahmed was friendly, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. He followed my pace perfectly—never too slow and never rushed. Whenever I asked a question, he immediately knew the answer. At both the pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, he explained the history through interesting stories rather than simply listing facts. This made the experience much more enjoyable and helped me pay attention to details I might otherwise have missed. Most importantly, Ahmed treated me like a friend, so I never felt as though I was touring alone. He suggested the best locations and poses for photos and patiently took many pictures of me. He never rushed me, and the entire experience felt like exploring the pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum with a knowledgeable friend rather than following a standard organized tour. There was also absolutely no pressure to buy anything. When I said I was not interested in shopping, Ahmed told me that it was my time and that I should spend it however I wanted. The pyramids and GEM part was honestly 15/10, especially because of Ahmed Elsayed. The ATV experience was also fantastic and deserves 10/10. I was given time to ride independently and enjoy it at my own pace. When the ATV guide rode with me, we safely performed a few exciting stunts that I definitely would not have attempted alone. He clearly knew what he was doing, and it was both surprising and extremely fun. For lunch, they asked whether I wanted a specific type of food or preferred an open buffet. I chose the buffet. The food itself was not the best, but there was a good variety of options. I would rate the buffet restaurant around 6/10, although I appreciated being given the choice to eat there or select another type of restaurant. The Nile dinner cruise was enjoyable and deserves around 8/10. The entertainment included a singer, a dance group performing short shows to different songs, a belly dancer, and finally a tanoura performance. The food was not exceptional, but there was a good variety to choose from. I also have to mention our excellent driver, Ahmed Ayman. Driving in Cairo can be intense, and after taking several Uber rides where I genuinely felt nervous, I immediately noticed the difference with Ahmed. He was calm, highly skilled, and drove very safely. I felt comfortable throughout the entire journey. The car was clean, in excellent condition, and had very effective air conditioning. The driver and transportation experience was an easy 11/10. I highly recommend this tour, especially the “All Inclusive & GEM” option. Ahmed Elsayed and Ahmed Ayman made all the difference. If you can request Ahmed Elsayed as your guide and Ahmed Ayman as your driver, you can rest assured that your tour will be safe, informative, memorable, and incredibly fun.

The driver and tour guide were fantastic! Our tour guide spoke perfect English. Positives: The pyramids and sphinx experience was great! The quad bike was really good for the photos, but you should be warned that to get to the desert, you will need to go to back streets where they breed horses and it can get very dirty/dusty. Negatives: The tour takes you to multiple stops not discussed on the itinerary in which they bring you to papyrus, essential oils, jewelry stores, etc. so they stores can pitch their wares. I highly recommend requesting these stops be skipped unless you are interested in actually buying anything from these vendors. We went to a few stops and requested the remaining be bypassed, in which our tour guide obliged.

We were only in Egypt for two days! So we had a lot of eggs in one basket hoping for lifetime memories of Egypt, Cairo, Giza and the pyramids! It was a lot to ask but this tour really delivered, principally because of our tour guide Ibrahim and the friendliest driver in the world, Sameer. Ibrahim was incredible, his English was impeccable and he spoke eloquently about Egyptian history, politics, traditions and the idiosyncrasies of Cairo culture. He was funny, engaging, patient and great with our two girls. More than all of this he gave us an incredibly passionate and informed reading of the history of the pyramids - he seemed particularly well informed having studied Egyptology in Oxford. Ibrahim anchored the mysteries of the Pharaohs and their tombs in historical terms and painted in rich technicolour the awesome achievements and vision of the ancient Egyptians. Seriously he was brilliant. In addition to bringing us to a much clearer understanding of ancient Egypt - he was sensitive to our need as a young family to have some moments to ourselves to be daft and have fun and he took some great pictures. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Our driver who spoke little English was smiling and generous and drove considerately. The lunch was delicious with a front seat view of the pyramids. The camel ride was a blast too! We had a fantastic day and came away from Egypt with lasting memories of our brief moment in the mind-bending history of the Pyramids. P.S. We went in May which seems to be a good time - it was really quiet and manageable heat.

Ahmed was such a knowledgeable tour guide! He spent so much time explaining to us all the history with great detail. He had great relationships with all the staff at the different churches and mosques. He accommodated to all of our needs. Our driver was also fantastic !

Sameh was an excellent tour guide. He was very good taking us to everything and even more. He was kind and everything smoothly with both himself and the driver. The sites were awesome, and I highly recommend you go early to avoid the crowds. I would take a tour with Sameh the next time I am in Egypt

Our tour through Coptic and Islamic Cairo was honestly one of the highlights of our trip. Ahmed was an incredible guide — his knowledge of Egyptian history is genuinely impressive, and he brought everything to life in such an engaging way. It didn’t feel like a typical tour; it felt like walking through history with someone who truly knows and loves it. What really stood out was how he went beyond just facts and dates, sharing stories and cultural insights that made each place feel meaningful. The way he connected different religions and historical periods added a deeper layer to the experience. A special mention to our driver as well, who made the whole day run so smoothly. Driving in Cairo can be hectic, but we felt completely safe and comfortable the entire time, and everything was perfectly timed between stops. Both of them together made the experience seamless, enjoyable, and stress-free. If you’re thinking about booking this tour, I’d 100% recommend — it made the whole experience so much more special.

Alaa (Aladdin) was an extremely patient and friendly driver. I did the half day tour to Saqqara/Dhashur/Memphis and he took me to each site and more comfortably and safely. I'd definitely recommend. He did ask me at one point if I wanted to visit a carpet museum, to which I replied "no" and that was that. (I'd read reviews from some people saying they were driven round tourist trap shops). Would definitely recommend, just make sure you know what you want to see and where you want to go - Alaa's English was quite poor (we communicated with Google translate), so consider this a personal driver/Uber as opposed to a tour. Sidenote: I only paid for car+driver, there are also car+driver+guide options but I cannot speak for those

We had such a wonderful day on this tour with Adham. He is an amazing guide. Knowledgeable, helpful and couldn’t do enough to make our day perfect and answer all our questions. Ihe was flexile and changed plans according to our needs which meant we got to spend more time at the GEM se wanted. I do recommend this tour n
