Don't recommend
Driver and guides were very good but organization by Emo was a mess. We had booked an overnight Cairo tour from Alexandria for 3 people with 2 separate rooms in a hotel for myself and my wife and my mother. The driver dropped us at the hotel at the end of the long first day but when we went to check in the hotel had us all in one room and couldn't do anything about it as the booking was made by Emo. So at that point we were in a largely unworkable situation and out $500. The hotel tried to contact them but couldn't get through to anyone. I eventually got a message on whatsapp that they were working on it, but heard nothing more for a good 45mins-1hr. Meanwhile we've exhausted the patience of the hotel staff and ourselves as we just want to rest after a long day travelling. I eventually went back to the hotel desk after multiple frustarted messages to Emo on whatsapp with no reply and was told we had 2 seperate rooms! Never received any apology from Emo. Wouldn't book with them again.

Unique Experience
This tour was very comprehensive and rich in Egyptian history. It covers the Pyramids at Giza, Dahshour and Saqqarah; and Memphis (1st day); and the Aladine Citadel, Mohamed Ali Mosque, the Old Museum and the Khan el-Khalili market (2nd day). The tour guide Suliman Amed is very knowledgeable on this topic, patient and very accommodating. I highly recommend this tour.

Great service, Yusif, our driver was very accommodating, punctual and spoke good English. All in all a good experience.

Disappointing experience
I would like to start with the good- our driver, Yosef, was excellent. He was friendly, accomodating, and had a sense of humor. Our guide, whose name I unfortunately cannot recall, was very knowledgeable, especially around the pyramids and museum. The included lunch was good. The negative: multiple, undisclosed at time of booking, "special suprise" stops for "educational purposes" which were really high pressure sales stops at a perfume shop, a carpet maker, a spice shop, a cotton store. At most of these places we were seperated from our guide and taken to a seperate area alone, which as a single woman traveling alone with children, including a disabled girl, felt unsafe. In most of these places repeated "no" to purchasing was disregarded. In one instance I was questioned about why I was traveling alone and if my children had the same father.

2 Day private guided Cairo tours: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.
How much does 2 Day private guided Cairo tours cost?
+
Prices start at $120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Giza usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Day private guided Cairo tours take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Giza is not rushed.
Is 2 Day private guided Cairo tours worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 45 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Giza, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Day private guided Cairo tours?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Day private guided Cairo tours suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Day private guided Cairo tours?
+
Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Giza can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Giza and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Day private guided Cairo tours start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Giza within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Giza?
+
On Outty we rank every Giza experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Camel, ATV Bike, Shopping & Dinner Cruise, ViP Private Tour Giza Pyramids,camel ride , inside 3rd Pyramid, Giza Pyramids VIP Private Tour ATV Camel Inside Pyramid & Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Giza?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Giza?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
