It was very exciting to see the pyramids and go through the pyramids and walking up the tight stairs to see the king's tomb. Yeah, at the top of the pyramid. The air warm walking up the stairs, you have to be in pretty good shape. Should have hiking shoes or tennis shoes. Do not wear dress shoes whatsoever. The ground is uneven.

Absolutely everything was wonderful. My French-speaking guide Reda was perfect, so kind and patient. Incredible. He really took the time to explain everything in detail. What's more, Reda's driver was also punctual and kind. I really recommend Reda as a guide for an incredible tour!

Such a wonderful tour. I've learnt lots from our tour guide Ahmed about the ancient history of each pyramid and each kings. I would recommend first time traveler to book a private tour in order to learn more about history and best experience from the local guide.
