Excellent tour and guide
The older pyramids are more interesting and less crowded than the major pyramids. Plus there is no fee to go inside. We saw the red, bent and step pyramids which were very nice to visit. Memphis is not worth the entrance fee so I would not go unless you have a Cairo pass. Would recommend a guide as the driver only does not speak English.

A ten star experience
I would give our guide ten stars if Viator allowed it! He went well beyond his standard duties to ensure our half-day tour of the Giza necropolis, Saqqara, and Memphis was exceptional. Not only was his knowledge impressive, but he also genuinely looked out for us—expertly steering us clear of the usual tourist traps and guiding us toward the real highlights. It was a remarkably comfortable and memorable experience.

Day trip
Driver was prompt for pick up, and very helpful during the trip to Saqqara, Dashur, and Memphis, a safe bet for anyone that is interested!

Our trip to Giza...
Our trip to Giza Pyramids, Saqqarah and Memphis was unforgettable, largely thanks to our guide Mahmoud Nashy. Not only does he know the history inside and out, but he also made the entire experience stress free. He looked after us like family. His warm personality and sense of humor made that day in the sun a total joy.

Wonderful tour of Saqqara, Dahshur and Memphis
As a family of four including two children we spent the day with Hassan (our amazing guide) and Sabry (our excellent driver) exploring Saqqara, Dahshur, and Memphis. Hassan was friendly and deeply knowledgeable about all the monuments and was happy to share that knowledge with us. He was happy to go at our pace and was great with the kids. Sabry drove us carefully and safely in his comfortable minibus. I couldn't recommend this tour highly enough, it was superb!

Solo to egypt
I had Mr Ahmed as a tour guide. He speaks good English and that is important.
He is kind, approachable and easy going.
He helped me to take very professional pictures. Saqqara is UNESCO and Memphis is the oldest town in Egypt.
Please go to Egypt at least once in your lifetime

A very good half of visits in the less crowded sites around Cairo
Our half day tour included visitors of the sites of Saqqarah, Dahshur and Memphis. We were accompanied by a guide and a driver, who didn't try to sell us anything or change the program in any way. Our guide was knowledgeable and had a good command of English. The driver was one of the best we met in Egypt.

Self tour with family
Excellent way to visit Dashur, Memphis and Saqqara pyramids. Priori knowledge of the sites makes the experience much more valuablr. All went well with our driver.

good tour
Good tour, tour guide had humor. Some stops felt rushed (e.g., Memphis), especially given that we ended back back at home much earlier than planned. So I recommend asking tour guide for additional time if desired.

Best Giza Pyramids Tour
The car for pickup and dropoff was new and clean. The tour was private and engaging - explaining all details about how the pyramids even came about in the first place, and more specifically how to navigate them on site. Mohamed was the best guide! He brought our attention to a lot of nuanced stories and contexts that just wouldn't have been possible without a guide.

Ibrahim was an excellent...
Ibrahim was an excellent guide. I could tell he loved sharing history with us! Our driver was good as well. They were on time in a nice clean car. He showed us things the large tours would never see. Don’t go down the long dark crawl in the pyramid. Ibrahim has a better one to see and you won’t get harassed for money.

When to visit

Memphis is a must-see for fans of ancient Egypt.
The attractions at the Mit Rahina open-air museum are sculptures, not architectural remains of the former city.
Some pieces from Mit Rahina will move to Giza's Grand Egyptian Museum, slated to open in 2020.
Mit Rahina is flat but sandy, possibly challenging for travelers who use wheelchairs or strollers.
