Disaster
The tour was supposed to be 3 hours, divided in two parts.. Walking tour one hour and carriage tour. Only 30 minutes carriage tour around Tahrir Square . The guide didn't explain to us anything. I think that he didn't know what to do. Disaster.

City lights and awesome sights
The horse drawn carriage ride through the city was exciting, even the traffic’s was unable to stop us seeing the highlights. The late night shopping can be expensive, so get your converters ready and haggle as this is part of the experience. The driver was awesome and definitely could be a contender for formula 1. Our guide was super friendly and fully focused on us and explained all the highlights. Definitely, a tour not to be missed when in Cairo.

Wonderfully accommodating to changes in itinerary
Wonderful tour with Abdu tonight. I changed things up and said no Tahrir horse ride- I just wanted to see Al Azhar park for the sunset, and a couple of the mosques at night. Although the park has a no camera policy- my phone pictures came out gorgeous. I didn't bring my tripod but I loved how the Citadel, Hassan and Riffai mosques came out with my Canon. They even took me to a Lebanese restaurant I've been meaning to try on my trip. Thank you for accommodating my last minute requests.

That was a good...
That was a good experience overall however it's duration was not 4 hours as described but just 2 totally.To tell the truth,just before the arrival in the reception of our hotel our guide asked as if we would like to do something else specifically however the important is everything to be done as described.

The Amazing Night Life Experience!
We were sooo blown away with the difference between the life around the pyramids versus the downtown life. Our tour guide Mahmound H started our adventure off with a horse ride! Then he helped me meet up with family that just arrived in Cairo as well. The places he took us to will definitely be cherished! I'm so glad we went with him on yet another adventure! He doesn't disappoint!

Cairo by night tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.
How much does Cairo by night tour cost?
+
Prices start at $20 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 Cairo by night tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Cairo by night tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 5 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 Cairo by night 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 Cairo by night tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cairo by night 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cairo by night 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.
What is included in Cairo by night tour?
+
Included: Dinner (if option selected ); Tour guide; Carriage Ride Fees; All Pickup and drop off transfers; and All Taxes & Services. Not included: Personal Items; and Tipping. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 212 listed pickup locations in and around Giza. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Cairo by night tour offered in?
+
It is offered in Arabic, English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
