Memorable and enjoyable experience in Egypt!
Our trip to Egypt has been seamless and great thanks to Jakada Tours Egypt and our guide. Our guide, Mo, is a really friendly and patient person who truly does his very best in helping us get the most out of our trip. He is very flexible in terms of planning, and makes sure that we are able to do anything that we prefer to do. He is very knowledgeable and passionate when he shares about the Egyptian history and heritage. His guidance is whole-hearted and honest too. Thank you, Mo.

Wonderful Day in Giza
We had a wonderful day in Giza! Our guide, Mina, was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. I really liked that we were able to choose where we wanted to spend more time, which made the experience feel personal and relaxed. Since it was just my husband and me, the tour felt private and focused on what we wanted to do. Mina and the driver picked us up from our hotel, which had an incredible view of the pyramids. They look amazing at night. From there, we went straight to the main entrance of the Great Pyramids and began our tour. Mina took care of everything, and we didn’t have to wait in any lines, which was a big plus. We first visited an area that felt like a small museum before taking an electric bus to our first stop. Mina helped us take great pictures and made sure we captured every special moment. I mentioned that I wanted to ride a camel, which wasn’t part of our tour, but Mina made a quick call and made it happen. It was such a fun and memorable experience. Overall, Jakada Tours did an excellent job planning everything, and Mina was fantastic. We had a great time and have already started telling our friends about our tour and stay.

Excellent Experience in Egypt
I spent two days with Sayed driving and Muhammad guiding me through the Giza Plateau, the Egyptian Museum, Saqqara, Memphis, and Old Cairo. Sayed could not have done enough for me to ensure I had a safe and comfortable ride through the streets of Cairo. Muhammad is an excellent and enthusiastic guide. He's very personable and couldn't have done enough to make sure my every need was met. He's exceptionally knowledgeable and intellectually curious, as well as quite approachable and honest. I would recommend both of these guys to anyone visiting Egypt. For anyone concerned about the deposit to Jakada via PayPal, it's completely legitimate. I was apprehensive, but they are a good company. There was some confusion about paying the remaining balance, but that was easily sorted out. As a seasoned traveler, I knew what to do, but for those who are not, I encourage you to do a bit of research about using payment cards abroad.

Cairo tour of Pyramids , sphinx , Giza , River Nile tour
We did a full day tour in Cairo, we saw the pyramids, the sphinx, the museum, had a lovely lunch and a boat trip along the Nile with Rasha Yehia Mubarak the tour guide. Rasha was amazing and showed us everything there is to see. The transport was comfortable for my whole family and Rasha showed is the best that Cairo has to offer. We would definitely recommend Rasha to all our friends and family or to anyone visiting Cairo :)

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara cost?
+
Prices start at $110 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 Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 114 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 Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara?
+
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 Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara?
+
Around 40 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara 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.
