What is included, what is not, and what the provider is silent about
The catalog distinguishes three states, and the third is the most important: no information does not mean excluded, but unresolved.
| Service | Status | What this means for you |
|---|---|---|
| Site ticket plateau | included | Included in the price, nothing further to pay. |
| Interior of a pyramid | no information | The normal case. Khufu officially around €16 (1,000 Egyptian pounds). |
| Hotel pickup | included | Included, meeting point is your accommodation. |
| Lunch | included | Included. |
| Burial chambers and mastabas | nowhere in the catalog | In the entire reviewed catalog, no offer sells access to a tomb on the plateau. |

What the entry price includes and which official items remain open
The tour can be booked from €226. This makes it one of the most expensive 25 percent of offers in the category of pyramid tours from Alexandria. The price includes the site ticket for the Giza Plateau, lunch, and hotel pickup. For the site ticket, the provider covers the official value of 700 Egyptian pounds, approximately €11. The site ticket does not cover the interiors of the pyramids. The provider says nothing about the interior of a pyramid; the interior of Khufu is officially priced at 1,000 Egyptian pounds, about €16. Tipping is customary in Egypt and is not a surcharge for special service.
The price in comparison
Entry price of this tour against the four best-documented offers in the same category. The highlighted bar is this tour.
The price alone says little. Read it together with the line "Site ticket" in the comparison table: An offer without entrance is not cheaper, but calculated differently.

The order follows the evidence and not the commission. All values come from the same catalog fields so that the columns are comparable.
How many people have judged?
Number of reviews per offer, with the rating in parentheses. A rating without its sample size is not information.
The quality threshold for this page is ten reviews. Anything below that is not a judgment, but chance.

A 5.0 from a single review
The stated rating is 5.0. What matters is the number of reviews: there is exactly one. Such a narrow basis does not support the rating. In the same category, the tour ranks 8th out of 12 by evidence strength, and 9th by number of reviews. The 5.0 thus mainly says that the one traveler who responded was satisfied with the tour. A reliable comparison with the other offers in the group cannot be derived from this.
The day, stop by stop
The order follows the usual itinerary. Each stop tells you what to expect there and the documented figures; everything else is in the data sheet.
Pickup at your accommodation
The provider picks you up; the duration of the tour counts from here, not from the gate.
Giza Plateau
The site itself: the three pyramids, the Sphinx, and the viewpoints in between. Private vehicles are not allowed up; you travel by electric shuttle or on foot.

Return to the starting point
The return journey is part of the stated duration. In Cairo traffic, it is the most unpredictable part of the day.
A place in this list is a stop, not a promise about the duration of the stop.
Temperatures in Alexandria throughout the year
Average daily maximum and minimum values per month. Two series, one axis; the points mark the hottest and coldest months.
On the site itself there is hardly any shade; the values are normal outdoor values and not a forecast.

The chart shows for Alexandria maximum and minimum values, i.e., the values during the day and at night. The hottest are July and August with 30 and 31 degrees during the day and 24 degrees at night. June and September remain similarly warm with 29 and 30 degrees. For a two-day tour, the months November to March are more pleasant with maximum values of 18 to 24 degrees and minimum values of 10 to 15 degrees. On the plateau there is hardly any shade. The values are normal outdoor values, not a forecast for the specific travel period.

At the ticket office: card only, no private cars, inconsistent opening hours
The opening hours of the Giza Plateau are given as 8 am to 4 pm, with an older official source saying 7 am to 5 pm. The ticket office closes one hour before the gate. Payment at the ticket office is by card only, not cash. Private vehicles have not been allowed onto the plateau since 2025; you take the electric shuttle or walk. The main entrance since 2025 is the Great Gate on the Cairo–Fayoum desert road; the Sphinx Gate is open but has no ticket office.
Who the overnight tour suits and which alternative is better
This tour is suitable for travellers starting in Alexandria who want to visit the Giza Plateau over two days. It is also intended for wheelchair users, as the operator lists it as wheelchair accessible. It is not suitable for day-trippers or anyone on a small budget; the twelve-hour tour "From Alexandria Port: Giza Pyramids, Egyptian Museum and Bazaar" is bookable from €85 and features a German-speaking guide. If you also want to see the Egyptian Museum, you will find it in this alternative; the overnight tour only lists the Giza Plateau as a programme item.

Frequently asked questions
Is the entrance to the plateau included in this offer?
Yes. The site ticket for around €11 (EGP 700) is included in the price.
How long does the tour actually take?
The catalogue says 2 days. This period is counted from the meeting point or hotel, not from the gate; in Cairo traffic, allow a good half to a full hour each way.
Is there a German-speaking guide?
Yes, the operator lists German as the guiding language. That is a promise by the operator, not a verified attribute of the person on site.
Will I get inside a pyramid with this?
The offer says nothing about this, which is the case for 175 of 252 offers. You buy the ticket on site; for the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the official price is around €16 (EGP 1,000).
Is the rating of this offer meaningful?
No. 5.0 stars from only 1 review is not enough for a judgment, regardless of how high the rating is.
Where can I find all data about this tour?
In the data sheet on this page. It lists every detail about the tour, each stop, and the climate of the departure city, each with its source, and can be downloaded as a CSV.
