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.

Good value for both...
Good value for both cruise and tour, capturing key sights and highlights of Ancient Egypt along the Nile River. Cruise facilities were clean and service was good. Our tour guide, Mohamed Gobran was thorough and informative, I would definitely recommend him to anyone thinking of booking this cruise. Thank you Gobran for the good experience and your excellent knowledge of Ancient Egypt.

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.

We were picked up from our hotel promptly at the given time. Khalaf was very knowledgable, he explined things well. took us to the right viewing points. Only thing was he was sometimes explaining things a bit too much and testing us and reminding us that he told us that before. All in all very good experience. Enjoyed the day.

Unforgettable experience
My visit to the pyramids and the ancient tombs was an unforgettable experience, made even better by my guide/photographer, Omar, a knowledgeable Egyptologist who brought every site to life with rich context and fascinating stories. Walking through the tombs and standing before structures that have endured for thousands of years gave me a deep appreciation for the history, beliefs, and daily life of ancient Egyptians. I’m so happy I came.

There’s very little shade at Saqqara—don’t forget your hat, sunscreen, and water.
Wear shoes adequate for navigating desert terrain.
