This experience is a must...

This experience is a must when in Cairo, the pyramids are the centerpiece of the history sightseeing and the new Museum of Egypt offers a great view of the history, culture and times of Old Egypt. Also, our tour-guide Fatma was amazing, combining the knowledge and interesting stories with some great humor that kept us engaged and curious to explore all that the sites had to offer.

We had a wonderful experience visiting the Giza Pyramids with our guide. She was very professional, well-educated, and explained everything clearly with great knowledge and enthusiasm. She provided all the information we needed and made the tour very interesting and enjoyable. She was also very friendly, helpful, and approachable throughout the visit. The driver and car service were also excellent. We were picked up on time from the specified location, and the journey was comfortable and smooth throughout the day. We also enjoyed visiting the papyrus art shop, spice shops, and perfume/cologne stores, which made the experience even more memorable and culturally enriching. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the Giza Pyramids and all other places!

I had a great time got picked up on time and I was running a bit late but thankfully it was all okay! Got to see all of Alexandria with Mohammed i believe. Im horrible at names! He showed me around with catacombs the old bath houses and of course where the mainline house used to be. Plus the beautiful mosque we made it right before prayer which was a cool site to see! Lunch was great with a great view and slept on the way back bc I was so exhausted after the 4 days in Ciaro. Thank you again for everything!

Half Day Tour To Memphis Sakkara And Dahshur Pyramids

Patrick_R, Apr 2026

Friendly and helpful driver

Alaa (Aladdin) was an extremely patient and friendly driver. I did the half day tour to Saqqara/Dhashur/Memphis and he took me to each site and more comfortably and safely. I'd definitely recommend. He did ask me at one point if I wanted to visit a carpet museum, to which I replied "no" and that was that. (I'd read reviews from some people saying they were driven round tourist trap shops). Would definitely recommend, just make sure you know what you want to see and where you want to go - Alaa's English was quite poor (we communicated with Google translate), so consider this a personal driver/Uber as opposed to a tour. Sidenote: I only paid for car+driver, there are also car+driver+guide options but I cannot speak for those

The tour was amazing, not...

The tour was amazing, not so popular as a lot of other tours but it's probably the most beautiful thing we have done during our vacation in Egypt. Our guide Karma is a very nice and kind person, well prepared and it is a pleasure to talk with her. Also the 2 drivers that accompanied us through the highway and the desert have been perfect!

Excellent private tour with a brilliant guide - Michael

Michael, our tour guide was an amazing guide. His knowledge of egypt - past and near past was impressive. The tour itself was smooth and very informative. Our son had injured himself and both Michael and Essam (the driver) went out of their way to ensure he was comfortable and could make the most of the trip including through the Giza pyramids. Michael walked us through the massive GEM with ease and knowledge. Being a private tour, it was very convenient. Highly recommend.

Our guide for the trip...

Our guide for the trip was amazing! Wagih was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Egyptian history. He took his time explaining everything and answering all of our questions. We had so much with this tour. Our driver Ibrahim was prompt and safely delivered us to all of our destinations, waiting patiently to pick us up after every excursion. I highly recommend this tour and tour guide!

Knowledgeable, friendly and efficient.

We had the great pleasure of Sayed and his driver, apologies for forgetting your name my friend. They were on time, organising things from start to end. We had two children with us, and they adapted well. Sayed's knowledge on the topic is vast, but he also engaged in personal conversation, which added to the bonding and enjoyment. 5 out of 5 from beginning to end. Thanks guys!
