The pickup was on time and the driver was very friendly. The car was clean and had seat belts—which is really not a given in Egypt. Everything went smoothly. The tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable. I’d definitely do it again.

The trip to the Pyramids of Giza was amazing. Skip-the-line tickets saved time, and the place was not too crowded. The staff were friendly, and everything was well organized. The zip line was very fun. It was a great experience!

A wonderful day. There are free shuttle buses throughout the site (so you don't necessarily need to take a horse-drawn carriage, ride a horse, or ride a camel). Exploring the interior of the pyramids is actually more of an experience in itself than simply seeing the chambers inside.

Access to the Sphinx is included in the ticket but there was a guy expecting banshees at what appeared to be the entrance (next to the Sphinx) however the free entrance was to the left of the ticket office.

Everything worked perfectly. At first, I was worried there might be a problem because the listed office address where the ticket was supposed to be redeemed was inaccessible due to construction work. But I just walked through the main gate, scanned the ticket I had saved on my phone at the entrance, and entered the Giza complex without any trouble and without having to wait in line. It was great.
