    Absolutely incredible! Mimo and Abdolghany gave us a once in a lifetime experience on a truly breathtaking trip.

    Mimo and Abdolghany were absolutely incredible. If we could give this review 10 stars, we would. Mimo was an experienced Egyptologist and gave us a wealth of information along our trip. We stopped at some of his favorite shops that didn’t try to haggle us or push us in any way. He took amazing pictures that we can look back on for a lifetime. He took us to the pyramids early enough to beat the crowds and get amazing pictures. All along the way giving us nuggets of information about what we were seeing. We felt safe, comfortable, and extremely happy throughout our tour with Mimo and Abdolghany. When we come back to Egypt, we will definitely be booking with them again.

    Day trip in Cairo

    Excellent tour for our first times visiting Egypt! Mimo was well versed in Egyptian history and Hossam got us where we needed to go! Lunch have us a recharge for an afternoon at the museum and market. (Bring extra water and have Egyptian pounds with you!)

    Great layover idea

    We did the 8 hour trip to the pyramids and more with Mimo and Hossam! They were so amazing and made sure we were happy with our trip! We got to take our time at each location and got wonderful information from Mimo! Was an amazing first visit to Egypt! Got to do all the cool stuff! Hossam is a great and quick driver allowing us to get to each destination nice and easy! Have Egyptian pounds with you for tipping and buying things!

    The best tour in Egypt!

    What a wonderful time we have had on tour through Cairo and Giza. A once in a lifetime experience, made perfect by our Egyptologist extraordinaire Mimo and our expert driver Hossam or James Bond as we call him. A wonderful time, so many experiences of a beautiful culture and amazing people.

    8hr day trip to Pyramids, Sphinx , Museum & market.

    What a fantastic experience! Mimo & Redar were great friendly guys . Mimo was full of knowledge and he made the day interesting and very enjoyable. Whilst Redar the driver was excellent at getting us to all the attractions. Would highly recommend booking with these 2 rather than in a big group booking. Definitely 10 out of 10 day trip . Thank you Mimo & Redar 😀

    2 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.

    How much does 2 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum cost?

    +

    Prices start at $239 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 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum 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 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 15 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 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum?

    +

    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 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum 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 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum?

    +

    Around 5 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 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum 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.

    What is included in 2 Days in Giza, Cairo and Safari in Faiyum?

    +

    Included: 4x4 Jeep for the safari; Qualified Egyptologist tour guide; Entrance fees; Lunch; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Extra entrance fees (interior of Giza Pyramids); and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 38 listed pickup locations in and around Giza.
