It made it much easier to get around to the three pyramids and to the outdoor museum with this tour. The guide Ahmed was knowledgeable about all the sites. I normally travel independently but I was glad I chose this tour to see these sites. From what I understand, it's always hot so bring plenty of water and drinks
