Saqqara was the principal necropolis for the ancient city of Memphis where, from Dynasty I onwards, the Egyptian elite built their tombs.

Pyramids of Dahshour
Witness Dahshur, where the ‘Bent Pyramid’ & ‘Red Pyramid’ are located. Snefru built two large pyramids at Dahshur. His first, known as the ‘Bent Pyramid’, is situated to the south of the necropolis while his second monument at Dahshur is about 4km to the north and known as the ‘Red Pyramid’. The monument whose ancient name was probably ‘Snefru Shines’ was to be Snefru’s third attempt at pyramid construction (including Meidum).

Really recommended!
We stayed with friends 4 days in Cairo and did 3 tours with Kemet experience. Everything was perfect, personalized to our needs, Mohammed was a really valuable guide: he gave us a lot of details and also a right amount of free time to explore the wonders we visited. Really recommended, perfect organization and communication!

Dream Tour with Radwa
The whole tour was great, every bit was new and exciting with the perfect tour guide, Radwa, she was sweet, knowledgeable, informative and organized. My husband and I had a great day, our whole experience was epic. We highly recommend this tour! She also took some great photos of us.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that Radwa made your day special with her knowledge, care, and organization. It means a lot to know your experience felt epic and memorable. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her and we’d love to welcome you back to Egypt for more adventures with us!

Best tourguide ever!
Radwa was our private guide for two days. She was very kind and good tourguide. And the best photographer! We felt really safe with her. If we come back to Egypt we definitely call Radwa again to be our tourguide!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your feedback we appreciate it so much. we are glad to hear that you have enjoyed your experience with us and looking forward to welcoming you again.

Authentic local experience - Fantastic
We spent two wonderful days exploring Giza, Saqqara, and Cairo with Radwa. She was extremely flexible and Kemet designed and adjusted our itineraries to ensure we visited all our desired sites. Radwa was very knowledgeable about history and the artifacts and it was a pleasure to get to know both her and Hany, the CEO. He was very involved, actively seeking feedback, and made sure we were 100% satisfied. Ahmed at reception went the extra mile to locate list luggage and we are grateful to Radwa for ensuring our safety while touring. We feel fortunate to have had the team at Kemet taking care of us and we feel like we have made new friends. You can not beat the location of Pyramids Valley, just yards from the sphinx, and the rooftop that overlooks it all.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your feedback and glad to hear that you have enjoyed your experience with us. We are looking forward to welcoming you again in Egypt.

Lovely experience that made us feel comfortable and safe
We did the 2 days tour with Radwa and really enjoyed it! We had an immediate connection and she made us feel so comfortable and safe. Not only did we see all the attractions, she also took us to the local spots which were not on the itinerary, and recommended options to avoid the crowds and traffic. Radwa is very insightful, so she will answer any historical questions you may have. 2 days went by so quickly with Radwa and our lovely driver Heema (who picked us up and dropped off at the airport). We would highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your feedback and glad to hear that you have enjoyed your experience with us. We are looking forward to welcoming you again in Egypt.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.
How much does Private Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur cost?
+
Prices start at $50 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 Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur?
+
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 Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur?
+
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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Pyramids Tour: Giza, Sakkara & Dahshur 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 ViP Private Tour Giza Pyramids,camel ride , inside 3rd Pyramid, Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Camel, ATV Bike, Shopping & Dinner Cruise, 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.
