About this tour

This is the Giza experience everyone dreams of. We take you to a trusted local stable at the edge of the desert, away from the busy main entrance, where you ride camels across the sand with the Pyramids in full view.

Then it is time to switch to engines: after a safety briefing you ride a quad bike through the desert, stopping for photos at spots most visitors never reach. Choose the early morning or the sunset slot for the best light.

     Verified Perfect tour guide
I had an amazing experience with my tour guide and driver! From start to finish, Es was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the destination. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and engaged, sharing fascinating insights that brought the location to life. Our driver, Mo Squeeze, was just as fantastic, expertly navigating the chaotic streets of Egypt with skill and ensuring our journey was both smooth and safe. Both Es and Mo went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience, and their enthusiasm was truly contagious. I highly recommend this tour to anyone, especially those lucky enough to have Es as their guide and Mo Squeeze as their driver!

Ess was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about Egyptian history, and he genuinely loved what he did. He made sure we had an unforgettable experience during our trip to Egypt. His driver, Mo, was also a great person and an excellent driver for navigating the winding streets of Egypt. If you want to have the best experience in Egypt, don’t hesitate to book Ess.

     Verified The Best Tour Guides in Cairo
10/10 experience from the beginning to end . Our day started with Mo and S picking us up from our hotel . Mo was the designated driver, his driving ability made us feel very safe driving through a hectic driving scene of Cairo. S was our tour guide who spoke both English and Arabic. They made sure we got breakfast before we started our long day. The plan for the day was to the visit the pyramids , camel ride , ATV ride and dinner . I was surprised from how much I learned on this day trip , S our tour guide is very knowledgeable with Egyptian history and taught us about the evolution of the pyramids and how Cairo formed into it what it is today . When we arrived to the pyramids S made sure we all gained entrance to the pyramids and protected us from getting scammed . After entering the pyramids he took us to our camel ride destination. We all had our own camel and paid the appropriate price . Following our camel ride we made our way to our ATV excursion. That experience was one of the best experiences ever. Following our very active day we made our way to a chicken shawarma place recommended by Mo and S . 10/10 experience all around . The tour guide duo made our day truly special and I recommend them to everyone visiting Cairo .
