The Pyramids Of Giza
The Giza pyramid complex, also called the Giza Necropolis, is the site on the Giza Plateau in Greater Cairo, Egypt that includes the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, along with their associated pyramid complexes and the Great Sphinx of Giza. All were built during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt. The site also includes several cemeteries and the remains of a workers' village. The site is at the edges of the Western Desert, approximately 9 km (5 mi) west of the Nile River in the city of Giza, and about 13 km (8 mi) southwest of the city centre of Cairo. The Great Pyramid and the Pyramid of Khafre are the largest pyramids built in ancient Egypt, and they have historically been common as emblems of ancient Egypt in the Western imagination.[1][2] They were popularised in Hellenistic times, when the Great Pyramid was listed by Antipater of Sidon as one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

10/10 Egypt trip, felt like we were between family
Mr Cherif and his team were wonderful and accommodating to me and my friend, they arranged our itinerary to fit everything we wanted to do, welcomed and took care of us like family for the whole trip. Getting around Egypt can be challenging when you don’t speak arabic, but we never had to worry about it because they drove us and accompanied us everywhere, ensuring our comfort. We managed to see the Gem, Giza pyramids and Sphinx, Old Cairo, Alexandria, Sakkara pyramids and Nile cruise. (Including amazing guides) We recommend this to everyone that wants a stress free Egypt trip with a highly experienced team and everything included, accommodation, driver and entrance fees (except GEM). Thank you!!

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!!
I had a wonderful time in Cairo because of Emo Tours. On my first day , brother Rahman took me to the famous Nile Cruise, where I had an absolute blast, Rahman is an absolute gem of a person and we had alot of fun. The next day was my full day tour to Giza Pyramids & Egyptian Museum & the Citadel, my guid Abdul Wahid was absolutely fantastic, he's a very knowledgeable, humble guy who actually wants the tourists to have an amazing experience (I'm truly thankful to him as he made my day an absolute eventful one). A very big shout out to Mr. Waheed (The driver of the car on my full day tour), an absolute delight of a person. All in all I highly highly highly recommend Emo Tours to everyone who's in Cairo. Keep up the amazing work guys, I'll definitely see you guys very soon :)

Disappointing
We booked a half-day excursion with driver and lunch on emo tours. -negative points: The guide (speaking French) of the no of Memdouh (if my memories are good) picked us up in the morning at the hotel with the driver , adorable and very helpful driver (Hihab). Once arrived , when paying for the tickets (taken care of by the agency) the guide wanted to pay less for our tickets supposedly to give us a gift at the end with the difference of the money we spent on this excursion. He wanted to do this at every monument, each entrance leaving us to wait several minutes by bringing in the director of the different places. We felt very uncomfortable telling him that we had paid the full price of admission anyway. This guide was very nervous on several occasions when arguing with other people (including a police officer ) Instead of taking an excursion we also visited the pyramids. He could at times hurry us. we took a camel ride at a price 2 x higher than normal. At lunch we learn that drinks are not included in the meal.the guide took us to several shops. The first was an antique shop with exorbitant prices. Wooden jewelry box at 35 euros. The second was a shop where he manufactured and sold papyri (130 euros per papyrus A5) The third shop sold non-alcoholic flower fragrances with a box containing 6 small perfume at 200 euros (the next day we asked a person who speaks the language well to ask the price of the large bottle:10 euros while we paid the small:30 euros. To relax a little we took a sailing boat tour (flourka) without motor, the tour is 20 Egyptian pounds we paid 20 euros per person. During the boat tour the guide did not stop talking they absolutely wanted us to listen to him talking while we were there to relax. We told him about a boat cruise he started making calls here and there, he was talking very loudly he was giving us the information when we didn’t want it we just wanted to enjoy the moment. Once the boat tour finished we went to the souk they told us not to go back to the shops and wait for him to negotiate prices or he took us to shops he knew. Out of curiosity we went to a shop that sold the antiques with a difference of 50 euros. As soon as we told him about it he got angry and shouted at us in French so that everyone knew that we are not from here. A similar shop that sells antique that he knows was selling the same antique 30 euros more expensive than the shop where we asked the price. As soon as we started telling him that we didn’t agree with his behavior and that it wasn’t right he immediately got angry and threatened to leave us in the middle of the souk and wait for us in the car. We understood that he made a profit on all his customers’ purchases. The next day we called the agency Emo Tours explaining the behavior of the guide. The gentleman at the end of the phone insulted us by saying that we had no place in this country (which is my home country ) he also insulted my parents and the Arabs ) We called the headquarters and they said they would sort it out. -Pros: The driver of Hihab's no was very helpful and very kind with a very gentle drive. I recommend this driver a thousand times. The guide had a good knowledge of the places , monuments we visited . To conclude I absolutely do not recommend this agency which is very very expensive 200 euros a day and the guide who scams you by charging you 3 x more expensive items to make a profit to put in his pocket.

Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.
How much does Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili 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 Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 7 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 Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili?
+
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 Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili?
+
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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Day Tour To Giza Pyramids & old Egyptian Museum& Khan El Khalili 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 Pyramids Sphinx Camel ATV Bike Shopping and Nile Dinner Cruise, Cairo 8 Hour Private Tour of Pyramids & Grand Egyptian Museum, Pyramids Sphinx and Grand Egyptian Museum Nile Felucca or Bazaar. 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.
