A night light show of piramids of Giza - Night light show with the view of piramids of Giza. The view is panoramic, so there is a possibility to take a lot of videos and photos with the view of the lightened pyramids.

Unsure.. - The fact that pyramids are lit up at night and set against the night sky is good enough reason to go. The story line is historically based but with artistic licence... voices seemed to be Shakespearen actors and have Victorian outlook on Egyptian history... thought I was listening to commentary and crowd noises from a cricket match, varsity rugny match or Oxford/ Cambridge boat race... more audio than visual display... seen much better pictures on Google...
Have to have attentive ear to follow long commentary, and wouldn't advise for kids... I cant imagine what listening to the script in another language would be like .. glad we did it but a little underwhelming

Sound and lights anew - Honestly, nothing sensational... Watching this from a restaurant terrace while dining is more than enough

Give your review a title Giza Pyramids Sound and Light Show excursion canceled at the last minute by the provider and no - We were informed by the service provider EMO TOURS EGYPT on the same day and at the last minute of the cancellation of this excursion that we had booked and paid for.
They informed us that on the scheduled date, April 16th, there was no sound and light show at the Pyramids of Giza/Cairo.
They confirmed to us via WhatsApp that they had received an email from the show organizers informing them that the show would not take place on days 16 and 17 due to renovations.
However, they received this email in early April and informed us of the situation only on the very day that this excursion was scheduled.
We await your URGENT response.

Exciting in the 70’s but no more… - It may have been exciting in the 70’s but no more.
There is so much that could be done especially as Egypt showed the wold at the great celebration of the Pharaohs triumphant move to the new museum. That was world class and in keeping with Egypt’s wondrous history.
Reimagine for today’s audience and then build it for they shall come!

Last minute cancelled on me - They cancelled this tour within only a couple of hours of when we were supposed to go and I had planned my evening around this. They said Viator will refund me but I'm yet to hear back from them "looking into it".

Driver Never Showed Up - Wouldn't Refund Money. - We booked multiple tours/ events on-line with EMO Tours in Cairo. We had issues with every pickup, where drivers went to the wrong pickup location and/or were significantly late. At the heart of these issues was EMO not providing either client or driver with the other’s contact information. We later learned that EMO forbid sharing contact information in fear that a client could setup future tours directly with a guide/ driver without EMO getting the revenue. Instead, we had to communicate with the EMO front office acting as the “middleman.” This “relayed” communication became even more fractured outside of regular business hours.
The above resulted in delays and miscommunication, along with our anxiety and escalating frustration. For one evening event; we would’ve been at least ½ hour late for a one-hour Sound & Light show. With an absent driver, we cancelled and asked for (but never received) a refund. I documented and registered a dispute with my credit card company using a WhatsApp log as evidence of the smattered communication we had with the front office (either the driver was lying to the front office, or the front office was giving us affirmations while being ignorant of the situation).

Not worth the money at ALL - Definitely not with the money, take the fee they charge and reserve a table at a rooftop restaurant overlooking the show
(Rooftop 7000) enjoy a meal and free show.. thank me later !

Don't go, don't spend your money - Don’t spend your money is boring and it seems done in power point you need an update because nowadays the shows with lights have much more level, this one is I can and could be amazing, the view to the pyramids and the sphinx is very good, the photos come out parents because besides the people who go is little then you can take photos without so many people but the show leaves much to be desired

Did NOT visit itinerary listed sites - Did not honor itinerary.
We were told as per itinerary and had paid for tickets to many pyramids and sphinx but was taken into Cheops pyramid only
Took a drive by photo in front of sphinx… which was not what was promised . We had paid for admission to the sphinx
Instead took to shopping stores which was not listed in itinerary …like perfumery and papyrus stores where operator might get kick backs
