Sunset camel ride - 10/10, would definitely do again! You must do a sunset tour on the camels. It’s when most of the tourists leave and you get time with the locals on horseback enjoying the evening. The views cannot be beat and the tea time at sunset was so special

Stunning views at sunset - Picked up by our guide, Ali, fantastic. English superb and speaks many languages. He made sure we were safe and very conversational. Enjoyed him completely! Zero our guide for the camel ride was funny, entertaining and knowledgeable. He made our camel ride experience pleasant. Beautiful views of the back side of the pyramids and stunning views of sunset. Would do this again. Only drawback are the ATVs all around the camels so it’s not as peaceful as I had hoped. Very relaxing otherwise!

5-star experience - We had an amazing time riding the camels around the pyramids and watching the sunrise. From booking the trip till the drop-off after the ride, we received 5-star service all along. I would highly recommend Wonders of Egypt Tours as they have a wide selection of tours and are highly professional. Riding camels was very exciting! I would do it again.

Amazing Giza Pyramids Tour with Ahmed - We had a wonderful day visiting the Giza Pyramids with our amazing guide and photographer Ahmed. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made the tour unforgettable. The camel ride and local lunch were great additions. Highly recommended!

Sunrise Camel Ride - Ali, our tour guide was so responsive and informative from start to finish! Punctual too. The hazy sky obscured the great pyramids from us but we had a lovely camel ride nonetheless. (We had an unexpected stop on the way back to see how papyrus was made so we got back nearly two hours later than scheduled but it was an interesting detour.)

Beautiful but kinda false advertisement - We had a pleasant experience, our driver and guide were great. Amazing photos taken by our guide; we felt very safe with our driver, delicious tea and stunning scenery. However, it is not around the pyramids like the photos shows. We were able to see the pyramids from very far, and the camel ride was less than 20mins. Again, it was nice but they should not advertise that it is around the pyramids because is false.

Don't do this tour - This is NOT a sunrise camel ride around the Giza pyramids. This is a sunrise (wait under a highway overpass) walk on a dirt road along a highway filled with trash to a hill so you can view the pyramids from a distance tour.
