Bedouin Dinner & Fire Show in the Giza Desert

About this tour

Swap the city lights for a sky full of stars on a private Bedouin dinner in Giza. Your driver picks you up from your hotel and takes you into the desert near the Giza Pyramids, where a traditional Bedouin camp is waiting with floor cushions, low tables, a sunset over the sand, a mixed grill dinner, tea brewed on charcoal and a night of music, Tanoura whirling dance and a fire show.

It is the perfect way to slow down after a day of sightseeing. The evening is private, just you, your group and your own driver, with hotel pickup and drop-off in Cairo or Giza.
