Cruising By the Pyramids

I booked this quick activity as a finale to our week long trip in Cairo to do something fun with just my son and I. The driver and guide (Mohammed) who picked us up were both very nice and pleasant. They help us get some scarves to protect our faces from the dust (which I’d recommend bringing one so you aren’t breathing all that dust) and gave us a few history lessons on the drive. When we got to the location to start the ATV rides, they had everything ready so all we had to do was jump on and go. We had another guide at this point to took us through the desert. He took us to a spot right from the start where we were able to get all the best pictures right away, then we drove around in the desert for maybe another 40 minutes before heading back. Overall, it was a thrilling experience that I’d highly recommend!

Negative feedback: the...

Negative feedback: the pickup and drop off could have been more professional. Bare in mind that whatever time you select you will have to be picked up over half an hour before - I didn’t know this and was only informed the night before and had to rush from a massage I had booked. There is also a €10 per person entry fee we were informed of after booking. It does say in fine print when booking but doesn’t say how much - it really should just be included in the initial price instead of just asking for it later. The pickup was smooth enough but we were 10 mins late due to the above and the driver did take the time to point it out in front of everyone. The AC wasn’t on properly on the way up or back. Also, we stopped halfway at a very very overpriced shop, clearly on purpose - I’m originally Egyptian although living abroad and the prices were even more inflated than usual for tourists. Same with the ice cream etc during the quad biking break was just so expensive and again taking advantage of the very hot weather in the dessert. With the quad biking itself - my only negative feedback is that I wish we went faster, we couldn’t because we had kids in our group so perhaps the groups could be better categorized to suit different age groups and experience. Positive feedback: The quad biking section was fabulous. The guides were genuine and helpful - shoutout to Ibrahim. It was very fun despite all the above and we had a great time. The guys will also take really good pictures for you on your phone.

Super quad tour, horrible start due to horrible gift shop employee

The quad tour itself was very nice the guide was friendly and professional, quad was in good shape, pick up and drop off perfectly on time, really a good experience i would recommend. But: before the tour started we were taken to a shop to buy a scarf to protect us from sand and dust on the quad. The shop owner of at least a guw working there was horrible. Overcharged big time (even for egyptian standards) and he a approached us in a very dominant way. Kids even were scared. This was a bad start of what was supposed to be a super experience (don't get me wrong, quad tour was super!)
