It was great. I went inside 2 pyramids. I was not sure at all that I was gonna do it before I went on the tour. The first one felt amazing. The other was harder to enter, but I did it with no problems and I’m happy about that. The guide helped with photos and there was also staff by the entrences of the pyramids who gladly took pictures for some voluntary tips. They did not insist and they were polite. We got lots of information from the guide about all of the sites and other things in Egypt. The driver was very polite. The food was a buffet at a very busy restaurant that was especially for tourists. It was good food with lots of options.

Everything was great! We went inside 2 pyramids (1 included and 1 extra). The guide had been sharing interesting information, welcomed questions and offered taking pictures. The lunch buffet was very tasty as well.

It was an amazing trip to less popular pyramids of Dahshur and Saqqara but we were amazed by them. It is very nice tour with almost none turists. Our guide Mohammad is very well educated with the history of Egypt and explained us everything we needed to know and more. We saw even more than we expected. It was really one of our best tours here in Egypt and we loved everything about it! The drive there and back was very smooth and pleasant, we had an excellent driver. Would totally recommend the trip and our kind guide Mohammad.
