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.

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!

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!

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 !

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!

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
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Thank you for your review but giving us 3 stars because the tour is expensive is not fair because you read the description of the tour and all the inclusions, and you still booked it, we delivered exactly what’s mentioned in the tour and even more when you asked to be dropped off in a different location and we didn’t mind. Please consider the price is for pick up and drop off service in a private car, tour guide during the tour, camel ride and camel guide, Bedouin tea in the desert and it’s all private tour. Thank you though for your opinion about the tour guide and the communication with you before the tour and hope to see you again in Egypt

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.

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!

It was kind of short felt, and the pyramids are far away which I didn’t know. For $50 and you weren’t free to ride the camel. You were dragged the entire time which was okay. What made up for it was the pictures the guide took. He was great.
Response from Host, Jul 2021
Thank you dear guest for leaving review and we want to clarify that the 50$ is for picking up and dropping off service from and to the hotel in a private A/C car with a driver and also the tour guide who explained to you and took pictures also the camel ride and the Bedouin tea.
Free camel ride is something we don’t recommend because camels can go very wild in the desert that’s why and for your safety we drag the camel. Best regards
