We had a fantastic tour and Ahmed, our guide is an archeologist, made our tour even better, prepared and a shield for the scammers. Rember that of you want to go into the Pyramids you must buy a separate ticket, even with headout option "all inclusive" who cover only the general entrances.

The buffet lunch was plentiful, well prepared and tasty. The waiting staff were attentive and efficient in bringing more drinks etc. Lunch included a bottle of water for each of us, if you wanted anything other than water then this has to be paid for. I had two sweet Turkish coffees and they very good.

The day was great. We saw lots of pyramids and our guide Reda, was super nice, he explained the history of the pyramids very well and repeated the information often enough so that we remembered the essential information. I highly recommend Reda, he was great. His driver, Ahmad, drove very well, he was careful and waited for us at the place of interest and on time every time. Nothing to complain about, the day was great and the best during our stay in Giza.

Everything went very well with our guide Reda and driver Ahmed. They were very professional and the explanations were clear. Reda took the time to explain the historical aspects and he went at our pace. I'd definitely recommend him.

The Great Sphinx

Proceed to visit the Great Sphinx, a giant mythical creature with the head of king Chephren and the body of a lion carved out of a single piece of limestone, dating back to 2500 BC. Another notable site is the Valley Temple which was used in the mummification of the pharaoh and his family, as well as the rituals associated with the pharaoh's afterlife.
