Visiting the pyramids and the Sphinx in Giza was a highlight of my trip to Cairo. I appreciated the private aspect of the tour, as it allowed me to soak in the history and take my time at Saqqara without feeling rushed. The lunch provided was tasty, though I would have preferred a few more local options to choose from.

Exploring the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx was truly a dream come true for me as a solo traveler. The private experience allowed me to soak in the grandeur of Saqqara without feeling rushed, and the lunch included was a delightful touch, offering a taste of local flavors. However, the transportation to and from Giza was a bit chaotic at times, which slightly disrupted the overall flow of the day.
