A Peaceful Journey Through Ancient Egypt
I truly enjoyed my day exploring the Step Pyramid of Saqqara and the open-air Memphis Museum — it felt calm, inspiring, and full of history. The statues in Saqqara were absolutely stunning and even more impressive in person. I took several memorable photos that I’ll always look back on with a smile. Mr. Joo and our guide Mohamed were genuinely warm and thoughtful, which made the whole experience feel personal and relaxed rather than just another tour.

I went on a tour of the pyramids in Giza. It was a great tour! I would like to express my gratitude to Rana for her interesting рассказ о Египте и его истории. There was a separate transfer to the pyramids, which was very useful for getting around Giza. I highly recommend this tour to everyone!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re truly delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Giza Pyramids tour. It means a lot to know that Rana made the experience special with her engaging stories about Egypt and its rich history — we’ll be sure to share your kind words with her. We’re also happy that the private transfer made your visit around Giza smooth and comfortable. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Egypt for another unforgettable adventure soon!

VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour 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 Hurghada is not rushed.
Is VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour?
+
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 VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour 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 VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour?
+
Around 3 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does VIP Private Giza Pyramids Sphinx Saqqara and Memphis Tour 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada: Luxor Valley of the Kings & Tutankhamun Tomb Trip, Orange Bay Island, Luxury Cruise to Orange Bay and Hula Hula island Trip. 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 Hurghada?
+
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 Hurghada?
+
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.
