Your private 6-8 hour tour begins with a fascinating introduction to each of the three Giza pyramids: Cheops, Khafre and Menakaure. You will have free time to enter one of the pyramids (additional cost), though your guide is not permitted to enter with you. A short drive to the city side of the plateau finds you standing at the feet of the Sphinx, the enigmatic symbol of Egypt, home to the remarkably well preserved funerary boat of Khufu.
Cairo's famous Egyptian Museum houses 165,000 Egyptian artifacts, but the priceless treasures of King Tutankhamun are the highlight. His six gilded coffins dominate the main hall, while his magnificent death mask is the star attraction. Your guide will introduce you to the museum's most important pieces before you have free time to explore at your leisure.
Continuing to Khan el Khalili bazaar, you'll enjoy free time to stroll through the maze of streets and bargain for a souvenir of your trip to Egypt. During the day you will also have the chance to visit a Papyrus Institute to see how the famous artwork is made.

I totally recommend this tour is you are looking for the highlights and insights to the pyramids. The history and information provided to us by our guide as mind filling and blowing at the same time! Our guide walked us through the labyrinth of the museum showing us amazing things and discussing in great detail the significance of each piece. Just to understand, you could easily spend three days in the museum just to see most of the artifacts! We had a special request for young lady Gallebaya's, to which another guide mentioned the best Egyptian cotton is found in Cairo and our guide accommodated our ask and took us to a wonderful store and mission accomplished. Next we traveled to the Pyramids. Again, if you think the pyramids are big, and they are getting around them took three different car rides! There is a lot going on but our guide and our driver knew where to go, how to get there and we never seemed to get stuck in traffic! Great time, and cannot recommend this tour enough!

Our guide was very professional and gave good service. A day to remember!

The tour was booked for the wrong day. The contact info for the travel company was incorrect. I tried calling both numbers they had listed in order to rectify the issue with the dates and both numbers were out of service and nobody responded to my email. They then charged me for a full tour that I did not receive.

Interesting tour

Great tour - well worth going privately. The guide provided lots of information and basically let us do lots of walking around on our own. Didn't feel like we got to really see the Bazaar as much so we went back again a different day.
