Sound and Light Egypt Reviews 

Show was very slow & I can fall asleep without missing anything. Sitting through is for 50 mins it’s not worth it. Also why can’t the narrative be in English which is more universal? They made the show Spanish last minute & we all have to get up last minute to scramble. While waiting in line, tour operators cut in line to get the headsets without a care. They need ID or cash deposit for headset that didn’t even work half way. I had to listen to Spanish half the show & waited in line to get headset & missed first 10 mins so the whole show was essentially worthless

So the show when we booked was to be in English and last minute they changed it to Spanish! They informed this to people quite late and we had to stand in line for a long time to get the translators for english - plus for this the demanded to keep an ID or cash as deposit!! So strange when they only changed the language. This lead to us missing almost half of the show!!! Poor pathetic experience!!

I have seen this show 5 times now and it really does need an update. Went to the Spanish show and three out of our 4 interpreter units did not work!

Obviously gorgeous setting but a dated and disappointing show with not enough illumination and the famous old fashioned, bombastic narration all of these shows in Egypt suffer from.

Told on arrival that show is in Spanish but no English headsets available and overall specifically told by staff that "there's no guarantee of getting either a seat or a headset". Those people that did get a headset complained of static and poor sound quality.

Very few information, I didn't know the show was in Spanish, and the location of the office the get the headphones for the translation is not well indicated, so I didn't understand anything of what was said...

We enjoyed the sound and light show. It was nice to see the pyramids and Sphinx at nighttime. The lighting on them all gave a good photo opportunity. The accompanied narrative was informative.
Once inside the sound and light area we felt safe seated in the outdoor theatre.

Outdated show that is not on any level to showcase the Pyramids & Sphinx History

I was very excited taking my seven year old daughter to the show however I was quite disappointed to find the exact same show that I saw more than 15 years ago. Especially with so many pictures not visible on the stones also the lights did not shine brightly on the pyramids and most of the laser was not working. We had paid VIP and sat in the front rows however there were only a few cushions for only a few seats. The old style of the narration and music is not appealing anymore and it needs to be a lot more modern it’s such a shame as to see all the new attractions and museums around Egypt now becoming more modern I had hoped to find the same here at the sound and light show.

The good experience starting from booking online. Was easy and fast. The entry is fast and smooth and people are welcoming.
I think the show itself could be much better and more creative. Although I liked with what I saw.

Great experience starting from booking online till I reached the venue. Everything was smooth and people are welcoming.
The show itself could be much better and more creative but I am still happy with what I saw.

It’s not modern anymore. A bit boring, too much dialogue. I will call it more a poetry representation, than a Light Show in 2022 standards.

The show was vary bad compared to 20 years ago. The laser is not visible anymore on the pyramids, the screen in front goes blank sometimes and the story is very confusing in any language. The only good thing is that you can see the pyramids and the Sphinx lit up but on the other hand you could do that also from outside without paying for the tickets. They did not invest or update the equipment for more than 20 years!

Booked online for a group and they were amazed

All was great except for the green laser part of the show, as it was not well calibrated to the wall and when drawing on the pyramid, we can’t see it as it’s not strong enough.

Please check this part to make that show even greater

Thanks

Very nice show. But in the hands of Europeans could be Amazing.

Old and outdated. But that’s the charm of it. Would recommend visiting if local.
Paid for the tickets online which worked well.

Terrible and quite embarrassing show. Very outdated technology with very little going on. Not much of a light show, more like a PowerPoint presentation. Complete waste of money.

Don’t change a thing. I wanted to feel like I was in the Bond film and the audio is exactly the same from the 1977!!

The show was alright, was only worth taking photos of the pyramids and Sphinx with lights shining on them. If you are expecting a crazy light show I wouldn’t recommend it. If you have nothing else to do and the weather is nice, why not.
