Great tour of pyramids and more
Had a great day at the pyramids and Memphis. The guide was also nice enough to take me to a traditional Egyptian lunch when asked. Also stopped at a nice papyrus shop for a souvenir. A great way to experience the sights and Cairo/Giza in a day. Tour guide was amazing and fun to spend the day with. Car was clean and comfortable, safely braving the chaos that is the Cairo streets.

Amazing experience.
Egypt is known for its ruins, historical places, and sites of world wonders. Ms. Gigi and Mr. Gamal were polite and attentive. It made my Egypt Journey so amazing. Thank you. The Pyramids, Sahara Desert, and Nile River was the experience of a lifetime “dream come true”.
Response from the operator: thanks for this beautiful words 😍 happy to serve you ♥️🙏🏻

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Private Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara cost?
+
Prices start at $18 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 Private Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara 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 Cairo is not rushed.
Is Private Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Private Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara?
+
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 Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara 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 Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara?
+
Around 1 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Guided Day Tour of Giza Pyramids Memphis and Sakkara 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.
