Half Day Tour Giza Pyramids and Great Sphinx with Private Tour Guide

Pyramids and Sphinx

Sumer was a great guide. Picked up from the hotel in a clean and well air conditioned car. It was 40 celsius outside but I didn’t feel a thing inside. We started early in the morning and covered the Pyramids. Didn’t have to wait in line as I selected the option with the ticket while booking. On the way she gave me a history of Egypt from the pre historic times to why Khufu built the pyramid. As we got closer she gave me more detailed information about the recent excavations and developments happening around the pyramid. I will also add she is an amazing photographer, got some of the best pictures of my Egypt trip clicked with by Sumer. We were also able to arrange an impromptu camel ride on the way because I missed adding that option. All in all a great trip. My personal tip as a tourist - get there as early as possible to avoid the crowds and head as well as get the best pictures

The Best tour guide ever to see the pyramids is Summer

Our tour guide, Summer, was fantastic. She spoke perfect English and knew a lot about the history of the pyramids. We got an opportunity to sample perfumes and experience Egyptian cuisine. She is very charming and polite, I would recommend her to anyone that is apprehensive about going with a tour guide to see the pyramids.

Amazing day in Egypt

This was an amazing experience and worth every penny! I would highly recommend to anyone considering going to Egypt. Ali, our guide, & Osama, our driver, were absolutely wonder as well.

Great!!

Mohamed was a great guide. Made our visit to the pyramids and the sphinx an amazing experience. So full of knowledge and accommodating. Thank you 🙏🏾

The Pyramids

Hend was such a lovely tour guide, she made our first visit here at the pyramids such an amazing experience from learning the history and background of Egypt. I would recommend her for anyone interesting in booking this tour!

Unforgettable tour to the pyramids

We had an amazing day with summer visiting the pyramid, sphinx and camel ride. Summer took care of everything and took us shopping in the market to get some treasures items. The day ended with Egyptian lunch. Make sure you book/request Summer she is awesome.

Wonderful experience

Great tour saw a lot of different things and really enjoyed seeing the pyramids and the Sphinx. Would recommend this trip to anyone.

Must book with Summer!

Had the most enriching experience with Summer! She was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. She let us move at our pace but gently guiding us along so we could get the full experience of the pyramids, sphinx, and camel rides as well as a tour of an art museum and shopping for Egyptian oils. The restaurant she chose for lunch was one of her favorites and with good reason. Delicious authentic Egyptian food! *chefs kiss* We loved her so much, we booked a second tour for the following day with her of other pyramids.

10/10 experience and tour guide!!

Summer was the best tour guide ever! She made the whole experience so memorable and fun for everyone in the group. The pyramids were amazing, she knew all the great spots for photos.

Half day tour of Cairo and Giza

The best tour ever. I had limited time but was able to get everything done according to my schedule. So efficient and so fun and great photos. I was able to purchase some great gifts afterwards at the shop and then had lunch at an amazing rooftop restaurant with views of pyramids. Please book this and you won’t be disappointed!

Great visit of the Pyramids

We had an amazing visit of the Pyramids and the Sphinx with the best guide Summer. She is super friendly and is the best photographer. We are going home with great memories and photos! Thank you very much!!

The Best of the Best! The only guided tour you should take in Cairo.

Awesome well organised safe comfortable tour with the most amazing tour guide Summer, she is literally a qualified expert and is very friendly and makes the entire experience an overall amazing experience! When I come back to Cairo I would choose Gem Explorers and Summer every single time! Also the customisability and flexibility really adds to the experience!

Amazing day with Ali !!!!

I have the best time there accompanied by a magnificent tour guide named Ali. He is very kind and knowledgable. He knows his history perfectly !!!! We spend a great time there roaming from all Giza pyramids to the great sphinx and a lovely lunch after. 100% recommended !!!!!

Best tour ever

Ali is an excellent tour guide! We learnt so much about the history of Egypt, and he’s an excell photographer too! Super kind and friendly. We would definitely recommend him!

Giza Pyramids

Our guide Wael was very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. He is a gentleman and we really enjoyed the trip because of him,

A special day in Cairo

A great day with Ola she knows her Egyptian history! Very knowledgeable. We had plenty of of time at the pyramids and purchased the extra tickets to walk inside the pyramid up to the tomb. Long narrow paths up. The camel ride was about 20 minutes. So fun And time for shopping that was specific to our request. It was a great half day.

Amazing Tour!

Summer was an amazing tour guide! She took us around Cairo and gave us so much history and fun facts about each location. I recommend going with Summer for a tour around Cairo.

Pyramid tour with Ali

I had a great time on my trip with Ali. He knows a lot about the history and is very kind. The van was comfortable and air conditioned. He took great pictures of me and we had a nice lunch as well. This was the highlight of my week in Egypt. Highly recommend!

Great guide and would recommend!

Great guide that is very educated and knowledgeable. She spoke great English and was easy to understand. She also did a great job at keeping the pushy sales guys off of us.

Great Tour

It was my solo trip. Great Tour. Both the driver and the guide Mr Wael was kind, professional and knowledgeable. Shared the history and always kept my comfort first. Recommended.

Great tour of Pyramids, Sphinx, and a couple other stops.

Excellent tour and Summer was an excellent guide. The driver was also prompt and professional. Her English is good and she did a good job sprinkling in the history of what I was seeing. The lunch spot she took me to was good Egyptian cuisine. She’s a pro at taking pictures! Would definitely recommend!

WOW

WOW - so atmospheric and, apart from the crowds at the entrance side of the Great Pyramid and queuing for selfies with the Sphinx, really easy to be on the desert side and just be. Loved every minute.

Best tour guide ever

Summer was the best tour guide I’ve ever ever had was a pleasure spoke very good English easy to understand was very polite

BEST TOUR GUIDE IN EGYPT

The views and experience were great but it was Summer who made the day unforgettable for us! She is very knowledgeable and made us feel like family. She was more than accomodating and went above and beyond making our experience the best we have had in Egypt. Her English is impeccable and she kept us captivated the whole time. We didn’t feel bored, rushed or pressured to buy anything at all. She helped us communicate with local vendors and ensured we were safe and If you are doing a tour, you HAVE to request Summer!!!!! There’s no other way to do it!

Perfect viewing of Pyramids and Sphinx

From hotel pickup to drop off Amany was a knowledgeable and delightful guide and our driver was amazing getting us through the Cairo traffic!! Having Amany all to ourselves meant we had a more complete and informative tour. We happily recommend Amany to anyone wanting a consummate tour of the Pyramids and the Sphinx!!!!

Summer, the light of our tour

Our tour with Summer was amazing and insightful. She provided the best stops and spots for photos as well as the best things to eat and general information. I would hire her to teach me anything and everything about Egypt if I had the time!! Definitely deserve a pay rise.

Fun at the Pyramids

Our time with Summer was so fun! She was knowledgeable and very accommodating. It was a treat to have a private tour guide all to ourselves to inquire about anything we wanted.

Top Tier Tour with Asmaa!

What an experience!!! Firstly, I’d like to thank Asmaa… THE BEST TOUR GUIDE!!! Honestly, such great knowledge of ancient Egypt and Asmaa speaks English very clearly. My son who is 14 had great knowledge of the pyramids and Giza but Asmaa enhanced the depth of this which was very educational. We both had a wonderful day, traditional yet remarkable lunch and great insight to details of Egyptian culture. We cannot wait to visit again and be welcomed by Asmaa for further tours around Cairo City. Massive thank you!

Wow! Egypt you beauty!

Wow wow wow and another wow! Super impressed with the communication with Summer! What a fabulous host and tour guide. Very knowledgeable and informative and we shared a wonderful lunch as well. I cannot recommend this tour enough to anyone visiting Cairo. It really was an experience of a life time. From the pyramids, the sphinx, the camel ride, the excellent photos and all the shopping. Can’t wait to come back one day!

It was very good deserves a promotion

The tour guide Wael was very nice also he told us in detail about the pyramids and the food was good he took us to the sphinx and showed us around overall it was 5 stars

Informative and knowledgable guide.

Excellent experience booking via trip advisor. Our guide was very knowledgable. Definitely recommend booking an excursion with a guide to get the most out of your experience visiting the Giza Pryamids.

Memories to remember!!!

Fantastic tour. Mona is an excellent guide. She took it to an extra mile by assisting me both professionally and personally. Thanks to Gems Tour for a well organised itinerary.

Excellent tour for a solo traveller

This tour is fantastic for a solo female traveller. I highly recommend it especially those who just arrived to Cairo and don't know the way around. Hazem was a great driver, who brought me safely to the destination. Mohamed was an excellent tour guide, knowledge and patient (while I was taking tons of photos)

Great and informative tour!

Amany is a knowledgeable, kind, and simply great tour guide. She explained us everything about the history of the Pharaos and the pyramids.

Highly recommended

My tour started off with some hesitation because as a solo and first time traveler to Egypt to get into a stranger’s vehicle (albeit my tour driver) to be driven through the unknown streets of Cairo was daunting before picking up my guide (Ola) on the way to Giza. Ola was incredibly knowledgeable of the history of the sites visited and equally important helped fend off the street vendors. The tour ended with a stop at a perfume shop and an Egyptian paper making souvenir shop. If you are looking at not buying any souvenir then suggest you inform your guide of this in the first instance as the shop attendants can be convincing and before you know it, you may walk out with unbudgeted souvenirs (as I did)!

Ali was excellent

Ali was an excellent knowledgeable guide, that also protects you from the scammers. I highly recommend this tour. It definitely worth It!

Fantastic experience

Summer was a fantastic guide; very friendly and knowledgeable about the pyramids and Egypt in general. She was extremely helpful throughout the experience. I’d highly recommend her to anybody looking for a tour to the pyramids or anywhere else in Cairo!

Best memories by the Pyramids

We had a spectacular time with tour gide called Mona. She’s a professional and told us all stories about ancient Egypt with all details. She was very helpful making pictures for us at the best angles. She was also very protective with salespeople around pyramids and we managed to avoid all stress and just enjoying best moments around pyramids and sphinx. We had a camels tour which was also amazing and unforgettable. She arranged perfect lunch with high quality food. Recommend Mona for choosing a tour around pyramids. No regrets and just best wishes for Mona from Karolis and Jurgita. Dreams came true 😊

Great experience

Great tour! A lot to see in one day but my tour guide Summer made it happen. Many thanks to her and Zuma for making my day great in Cairo!

Amazing experience

Wael was an amazing tour guide! He was so knowledgeable, went at our pace and took the best photos of us. The drive was smooth and everything was on time!

Great trip to sphinx and pyramids

We had a great time with our guide Asmaa. Nothing was too much trouble she was super knowledgable and great company. We saw everything we hoped to and booked a follow up trip to Saqqara with her.

Great experience

The tour guide Wael did a great job, very knowledgeable. Air conditioning in car, easy collection and drop off from airport

Once in a lifetime incredible experience

Ali was the best tour guide! He recommended an early pick up time which was great as it was not as hot and less crowded. As he said we will be the first ones in to see The Pyramids, The sphinx and have a camel ride. It also meant great photos! Ali’s knowledge of the history of The Pyramids, the ships and Sphinx were fascinating. He was also very good on advising us how much to tip the camel driver. A private guided tour is definitely the way to go!!!

Perfect Day in Giza!

With so many tour options, I felt overwhelmed. However, after reading numerous reviews, we were thrilled with our choice. Our tour guide, Summer, was fun, amazing, helpful, knowledgeable, and flexible with her suggestions and time. From the seamless pick-up at our Airbnb in New Cairo to the end, everything went perfectly. The driver was also fantastic. We saw everything we wanted and more. The food was incredible, and the air-conditioned van was ideal for the weather. For unforgettable experiences and amazing photos, I highly recommend requesting Summer!

Amazing!

Amany has been very kind and friendly with us, moreover that very prepared about history of the Pyramids. I suggest this tour, is a very nice experience.

Really comfortable tour, and a great guide

Rasha was amazing! We took the tour with a 10 week old baby and she was so accommodating. She was incredibly knowledgable, calm and funny - even held the baby while we went inside a pyramid! The hotel pick up was seamless, it was a great tour with a separate driver and air conditioned car, definitely recommend!

Great Service

Great tour guide and driver. They were both very knowledgeable with all of the history and ancient backgrounds. They kept us away from the scammers, and translated what others were selling. Bottled water was also provided inside the private van. Great service, and kind guides. Would highly recommend.

Exceptional

Our tour guide, Ms. Olu, exhibited exceptional professionalism and expertise during the tour. Her extensive knowledge, patience, and kindness were truly remarkable. Ms. Olu made every effort to ensure that we visited authentic vendors and provided valuable insights into the local culture. She also assisted us in capturing stunning photographs, catering to my son's interest in Instagram. We express our sincere gratitude to Ms. Olu for her outstanding service, which greatly enhanced our overall experience. Thank you again

Amazing!

Summer was our tour guide. She was amazing and provided great information. The views were amazing and the camel ride was the perfect amount of time. Would definitely recommend and do again. Thanks Summer!
