An Unforgettable Tour to the Pyramids, Egyptian Museum & Khan El Khalili with Egypt Time Travel!
I had the pleasure of taking the Tour to the Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili with Egypt Time Travel on the 2nd of September, 2025 — and it was truly an awesome experience! The entire tour was incredibly well handled, perfectly organized, and ran smoothly from arrival to departure. I had the chance to explore some of Egypt’s most iconic landmarks, including the majestic Pyramids of Giza, the fascinating Egyptian Museum, and the vibrant Khan El Khalili Bazaar. Each stop was more captivating than the last, and our guide brought every moment to life with insightful stories and deep knowledge. Everything felt carefully planned and stress-free, allowing me to fully enjoy the day and take in the sights without a single worry. This is probably not going to be the last time I book with Egypt Time Travel — their tours are exactly my cup of tea! They truly show their care and passion through every part of the experience, making you feel valued and well looked after. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your detailed and kind review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed every moment of your tour and felt well cared for throughout the day.

Amazing time in Egypt with Egypt time travel
Amazing time in Egypt felt very safe and looked after by the team at Egypt time travel. My husband and I booked a 10 day tour in Egypt this trip turn to be one of the best trips we have ever had. Our expectations were fulfilled far and beyond. Since the time of booking with Egypt time travel Hager the travel agent was very helpful, very polite and prompt in all correspondence, he was super helpful in planning our trip according to our budget he found the best deals for us, I loved that it wasn’t about getting our money and secure the booking fast it was about us being happy with the itinerary and our requests, that took a few days until we were happy to proceed, when I consulted other agencies they just wanted to secure the booking within a day even a few hours not even listening to what we wanted with Egypt time travel it was a pleasant experience already from the time of booking the trip. We arrived late at night in Cairo Mr Zizo and Mr Allaa picked us up and took us to our hotel on the way we talked about the itinerary for next day, Zizo had some drinks and snucks, he waited for us to do the check in at our hotel and the next day from early morning our adventure commenced. We had a very busy days ahead the team spend a lot of time with us providing us a very VIP experience, when you look at the itinerary it looks like the spend just a few hours but not they spend a lot of time, we visited many places, there was no rush, Zizo in Cairo always made sure we capture every memory and we have some amazing shots. Zizo is a very knowledgeable with a professional degree as a tour guide, we learnt so much about ancient Egypt, we had some really interesting conversations about various topics. The drivers Allaa and Abdula always very friendly, polite and professional always making sure we were ok, driving in Cairo is very chaotic but the drivers were always under control, handling well all situations, we felt very safe at all time, on one of the tour days in Cairo we had another companion tour guide and all were super professional, we had a really good laugh and fun time with some good jokes we felt like when you meet good friends for a good laugh, this is something you don’t get very often. Zizo and the team also took us to some very good restaurants to try authentic Egyptian food every stop was delicious and the ice cream in Alexandria was one of the best we have tried. Egypt is known by hassle tourist encounters in the streets, but this didn’t happen to us Zizo and the team in Cairo made sure the whole trip was hassle free, he also guide us on the tipping on what was reasonable according to the services. He took us to some really good places for a little of shopping too. We came here to celebrate my birthday and like if all the attentions we were receiving from the team wasn’t enough they organised for me a birthday celebration with a tasty cake and a very beautiful and unique gift, I will be ever grateful and will hold this memory very close to my heart. After spending 4 days and 5 nights in Egypt we travelled to Luxor by flight again everything super smoothly and looked after by all the team, upon arrival in Luxor we met Peter our second tour guide , again another super kind, helpful and knowledgeable tour guide like Zizo Mr Peter is a very knowledgeable man he took us to some amazing places in Luxor he made sure to capture every memory and we have some amazing pictures, we learn again so much again about Egypt Luxor temples and valley of the kings which are a must, during our days in Luxor we tried some delicious food, unfortunately we had a bit of upset stomach, Peter was always caring about our well being and asking if we needed to go to a pharmacy or if we needed anything to make us feel better, Peter and Zizo also organised for us a hot air balloon trip which was fantastic, highly recommended if you are in Luxor. Our driver in Luxor Mohammed also very respectful and polite, after two days in Luxor Mohammed drove us to Hurghada for our last days of our trip and the road trip with Mohammed was pleasant and we felt very safe, we also stopped on the way for some great shots of the desert. I highly recommend Egypt time travel they have an amazing well experienced and professional team that will take of every bit of your trip, they will book the best accommodation will take you to amazing places in very comfortable vehicles in a one to one VIP experience. We want to say a big Thank you to Egypt time travel and to all the team we not only taking with us some amazing memories but we also made some good friends. We will come back again for sure!

Impeccable customer service!
Even though we had to cancel our trip, I still want to take the time to write a review. The planning, preparation, flexibility, responsiveness were absolutely top notch. Maro was truly fantastic. Then when we had to cancel our trip, no questions were asked. Again, Maro was super understanding, wired us back the funds we had already paid within 24 hours from cancellation. Where other companies would drag their heels, they really showed their professionalism and customer focus. As soon as we rebook our trip, I know who I'm reaching out to! Thanks Maro and team!

Private Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Private Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili 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 Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili 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 Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili?
+
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 Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili 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 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili?
+
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 Tour to Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Khan El Khalili 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.
