    Exceptional Alternative Pyramid Tour!!

    The biggest joy of this tour had to be our passionate guide Nada! She was so eager to discuss the rich history about the sites and she made it easy to understand the stories. The main feature for our family was seeing the rare Medium Pyramid. This is a tour that is very happy to take you to this Rarely seen Collapsed Pyramid! The tour gives you plenty of time to go inside the Red and Bent Pyramids. Very generous water for the hot and physical day IF you go inside the pyramids. KMT I highly recommend their services! Milad was a superb Driver the entire tour.

    Fantastic Day Among the Pyramids of Meidoum and Dahshur

    From start to finish, it was an excellent tour. I wanted to visit the lesser known pyramids of Meidoum and Dahshur. I was in Cairo during the Eid holiday, when many businesses were closed and I was concerned that it might be a problem to book a tour. I found a telephone number for Kemet Travel and spoke with them directly. They told me it would be no problem, and to send a WhatsApp message once I decided on my date. Communication via WhatsApp was easy and efficient. All of my questions were answered immediately. Within an hour, my private tour was arranged. On the day of the tour, the driver and guide were at my accommodation a few minutes early. Again, the guide and I had exchanged WhatsApp numbers, which made communication seamless. The private vehicle was very clean and comfortable, and Radwan drove carefully. My guide, Andrew, was knowledgeable and took the time to explain the sites, taking me through the history of the development of pyramid building from a step design to the first true pyramid. Both Andrew and Radwan were patient and never tried to rush me. Andrew walked me completely around every pyramid, showed me the mortuary temples, and then let me explore further on my own to my heart’s content. I entered all three pyramids and climbed to the burial chambers, and even crawled through a mastaba tomb in Meidoum on my hands and knees (not for the claustrophobic!). I saw and did more on my tour than I had ever anticipated. To finish the day, we had a late lunch in Giza on the way back. I was not expecting to eat much, but the food was very good. I especially enjoyed the stuffed vegetables and the tahina, and went back three times to the buffet. Grilled meats were brought to the table, and the kofta was especially good. Radwan and Andrew dropped me back at my accommodation at the end of a full day. Actually, it had been a perfect day for what I wanted to see and do.

    Meidum and Dahshur.

    Excellent tour with a knowledgeable guide and competent driver. Andrew kept us engaged with the background and history of the places we visited, facilitated access, and kept everything running smoothly. A highly recommended tour!

    The long-awaited Meidoom.

    My husband and I joined the event together. It's a bit expensive, but it includes all the tickets and meals. Above all, it's rare to get a tour with a combination of Meidoom and Dahshur. The guides and drivers also explained the history and genesis of the event attentively, allowing us ample time to observe each point. I'm really enjoying it.

    Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum cost?

    +

    Prices start at $100 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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum 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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 10 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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum?

    +

    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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum 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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum?

    +

    Around 4 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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum 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 Private Day Tour to Dahshour and Meidum?

    +

    Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Private tour; Bottled water; Lunch; and Transport by air-conditioned minivan. Not included: Gratuities; and Drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
