BEST tour of my life!
We received an outstanding tour of Cairo, the pyramids, the sphinx, the Egyptian Museum and additional sites by tour guide Lili. Her knowledge is profound and she has a spectacularly competent manner. Lili's insights are exciting and very well presented. She also arranged for delicious Egyptian meals at local restaurants which we enjoyed immensely. Mustafa met us at the airport and handled all transportation details in a pleasant, friendly, and thoughtful manner. He handled all our hotel accommodations and customized services according to our needs including meeting us early in the morning for the tours. The driver of our van was also excellent. I highly recommend this tour company. We were safe, comfortable, and thrilled to receive their extraordinary service.
Response from the operator: Thanks for choosing us and we will make sure that you and all our clients will get the same good experience as always .

Easy pickups, knowledgeable tour guide
We went as a group on this tour, and it was perfect in every sense! Easy pickups from the airport and hotels, included meals were delicious, and we were able to see a lot of amazing things in a short amount of time. If you have more time to spend, I recommend doing it with this group as Lilly, our guide had a wealth of knowledge to share.

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.
How much does Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $60 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 Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour 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 Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour?
+
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 Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour 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 Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour?
+
Around 2 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 Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour 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.

+

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 210 listed pickup locations in and around Giza. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Two Day Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in Arabic, German, English, Italian, French, Danish, Dutch and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
