Fabulous one
We went to Cairo on a short 2-day trip with Mr Ali as our personal guide. We are a family of four and had a very good time in Cairo. Day 1, we covered Pyramids in Giza and Saqqara and Day 2 covered the Citadel,Cairo.market and the museum. Mr Ali, our tour guide has been fantastic. He is very thorough and patient and impressed with commitment to look after his guests. We had a fabulous tour without any hassles and i highly recommend Mr Ali as a tour guide. A big thanks to him
Response from the operator: thank u so much for your kind words ! we're thrilled to hear that you had a positive experience with us. it means a lot to us that you took the time to share your feedback. we cant wait to serve you again soon. Ahmed Ali Egypt Travelwise

Saw it all!
Ali was absolutely incredible for me. We met by chance on the street and it was the best decision I ever made to book with him. I was given a personal tour to the churches and mosques of old Cairo, a dinner boating the Nile, and an in depth tour of the pyramids and saqqara. If you are looking for the best experience for the best price you are in the right place.

Customised touring with a fantastic personal guide - highly recommended!
We fast became friends with Ali – he’s a great guide and a really funny guy. So considerate of the wants and needs of everyone in our group. We went to Ali having no plan, so he suggested a Saqqara visit one day, and a tour of the religious community and old Cairo for another day. He even organised an amazing New Year’s Eve cruise on the Nile at the last minute! Ali squeezed a lot into a small timeframe and we can’t thank him enough. He even took us through the city so we could get a locals’ view of the Giza pyramids – very unexpected and amazing. There were so many ‘wow’ moments and having Ali as our guide, we learned a lot about Cairo & Egypt, and even a little bit about Islam. What started as a lucky chance meeting turned out to be an excellent two days’ addition to our vacation. Next time we find ourselves in Cairo, Ali will be the first person we call!
Response from the operator: thank you so much ,it was pleasure to have you here

The BEST & KINDEST tour guide in Egypt
If I could give Ali 1000 stars I would! Especially as a young female visiting Egypt looking for a guide or to find their footing among the overwhelming bustle (& if you want to avoid the hassling)! He made me feel so safe and welcome. Just tell him where you’d like to go, what you’d like to see or ask him for recommendations within the area and he will have it done. Ali is a gorgeous soul who knows all of the best places to visit, view and eat in Cairo. We did two day trips with Ali to the Saqqara pyramids and the tombs below as well as to a beautiful Egyptian jewellery store offering personalised carvings. All throughout both days Ali was extremely knowledge and very receptive to our needs for the entire tour. He made both days incredibly easy and adapted to our preferences and wishes. He makes sure you never go home hungry, is on time, reliable and air conditioned transport! I will be recommending him to all family and friends that travel to Egypt!

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo 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 Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo 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 Cairo is not rushed.
Is Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 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 Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo?
+
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 Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo?
+
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 Cairo 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 Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cairo Best 2Days tour Pyramids, Saqqara & Old Cairo 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 Cairo 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 Cairo?
+
On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. 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 Cairo?
+
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 Cairo?
+
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.
