Our guide was fantastic, made sure everyone had a great time and had a lot of knowledge. A mixture between guided tour and some time to wander through old market if you want to shop. Farsha cafe was fantastic, just wish we’d had a little longer here to enjoy the experience. Overall would highly recommend.”

15.Pyramids of Giza Sound & Light Show with City Tour

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 27 reviews · 8 hours · from $68

Review of Cairo’s 8-hour private night tour, with the Giza sound and light show, city sights, Egyptian dinner, guide, and practical tips.

“Vervoer was goed. Gids en chauffeur waren aardig. We waren ruim op tijd in Gezeh. De sound en light show was een tegenvaller en zonde van het geld. Het geluid was maar vanaf één kant goed waardoor wij het verhaal niet goed konden volgen. Tevens viel de lichtshow tegen. Op promofilmpjes zag het er spectaculair uit, maar de realiteit was anders. Het tochtje met paard en rijtuig was wel weer leuk. De gids maakte nog wel foto's van ons bij de Cairo tower. Het eten viel tegen, Egyptisch fastfood.”
