    Best tour guide and driver

    The trip was very very good. Our guide was amazing and very friendly and the driver was professional with a beautiful smile. The best part was finally achieving my dream of standing in front of the pyramids and seeing their greatness. Thank you Moonlight for this amazing experience.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really happy you enjoyed your day with us and that our guide and driver made the experience special. It was a pleasure having you with Moonlight Tours, and we hope to welcome you back to Egypt again soon

    Amazing family tour of the Pyramids

    We had a great time, the lunch was really good, and our guide was amazing with the kids and knew the history well. I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 just because the morning pickup was confusing and disorganized. But once we got in the car, the rest of the day was an easy 5 stars. It's a really good way to see the sights without the stress of planning it yourself. Just make sure to double-check your pickup details with them the night before.

    Response from the operator: We are very sorry for our driver and Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really happy you enjoyed your day with us and that our guide and driver made the experience special. It was a pleasure having you with Moonlight Tours, and we hope to welcome you back to Egypt again soon

    Very Hot but good

    The day was very good and we tried to enjoy it as much as possible even though the temperature was very high One advice is to bring a hat with you especially in the summer We stopped for lunch at an air conditioned restaurant and the buffet was very good The heat became too much for us in Saqqara so we could not visit Memphis this time Hopefully next time we will come in winter and visit Memphis too Thank you the driver Ahmed and Ali for this wonderful day

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re really happy you enjoyed your day with Moonlight Tours. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Egypt again soon

    Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.

    How much does Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $35 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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch 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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 26 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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch?

    +

    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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch 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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch?

    +

    Around 9 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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch 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 Giza Pyramids, Saqqara & Memphis Guided Tour with Lunch?
