Cairo private day by car including lunch minimum 2 persons

Rafat is one of the best man you can find for the job, the communication was outstanding with providing guidance on each step prior to the trip. The drivers that picked us up were very nice and polite and the drive to Cairo wss flawless, stops for food and toilet. The guide is Cairo (Hala) was excellent, she knew everything about Cairo and the pyramids and was very kind to us, helping us take photos in the crowd and taking us to places that were exclusive. She was the best guide in town and felt like a family with us. If you are looking for trips in Egypt, go with Rafat and you will have no regrests at all.

Wow what a day. It was a super early start. We were picked up from our hotel at 2am. It took us about 6 hours to get there so make sure you grab a packed lunch from your hotel and try to get some sleep in the car. First stop was the museum, so much to see and not enough time. Our guide showed us the best bits, absolutely amazing, he was very knowledgeable, you won’t be disappointed, could have done with a bit more time to wonder around by ourselves though. The ride in the Felucca was fun, bit cold at this time of year so wrap up warm but very peaceful. Lunch was tasty, you could see the pyramid from the restaurant, drinks were a bit expensive. The highlight of course was the pyramids and sphinx. We paid about £40 each for a camel ride behind the pyramids where you get an amazing view and the chance to take some once in a lifetime pictures. It lasted about an hour and was well worth it. There were a couple of visits to a perfume and papyrus shop, it was interesting and there was no pressure to buy anything. We finally arrived back at our hotel at about 8.30 the trip back was much quicker. Yes it’s a long day, but we thoroughly enjoyed it and have some lifelong memories to take home with us. I won’t miss the crazy drivers in Cairo though, but shout out to our driver he navigated the craziness expertly.

A little expensive but than again being able to enjoy a private clean and comfortable van with two friendly and helpful drivers, it's worth the money, with also included lunch and entrance fees. It's a long trip with at least one stop (more can be asked to the drivers without any problem). A very good local guide awaits you at the pyramids and accompanies you all day long. Next to pyramids, you visit the museum and also a papyrus factory, an Egyptian cotton store and an perfume store. These last three visits are very interesting, you get an explanation and of course to possibility to buy (however absolutely no obligation). You are also able to add things to the program, f.e. visit to Khan el Khalili. Also there is "aftercare", asking if everything was satisfactory and if anything could be done to even more improve. Final conclusion: certainly recommended (next time we visit Hurghada, we will make use of the services again)
