It was a beautiful and...
It was a beautiful and entertaining experience, starting with the pick up our driver Mo Salah was here early, made sure we were alright and as we drove took his time to give history of the places we passed. Great Guy !
The cruise was quite the experience, from the performances, to the belly dancers to the guy doing the spinning stuff and there was a lot to eat and help yourself too
Our driver was there as soon as it ended and chauffeured us back
It was a nice experience.

Amazing Time at The Pryamids with Family!
Guide Kryllos Eskandar and the driver gave my family and I an amazing experience at the pyramids. Super smooth, no hiccups, and no hassle. Everything included in the description of the tour was as it was, zero surprises! Kryllos was an incredibly knowledgeable Egyptologist guide and was very passionate about what he does. He was very helpful in answering all of my questions and has social media pages/ books published on Ancient Egypt. If you are having trouble choosing between multiple tours, let this be your sign to choose this one :) It will be an incredible experience I assure you!

Perfect day in Cairo
Great day with Egytpologist Kareem and driver Shadi. Saw ancient marvels and learned much of Egyptian history. Sampled delicious traditional food, saw how papyrus is made and used, explored exotic scents and oils, bought some lovely saffron tea and zatar from an exotic spice shop. It was a.perdect sunny day .

Highly recommend
Visiting from UK. Really kind tour guide, explained everything clearly, highly recommend, and for a great price too. The pyramid complex is huge and quite confusing, so tour guide is neededm Dropped off at egyptian museum afterwards included in cost. Can't fault rawan (tour guide) and awad (driver)

Excellent
We had an amazing pyramid tour guided by Nada Yassin, and it truly exceeded our expectations. Nada was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and engaging throughout the entire visit. She explained the history in a way that was both informative and easy to follow, making the experience even more memorable.
I highly recommend Nada Yassin to anyone looking for a well-organized and enriching pyramid experience!

We chose the later pick...
We chose the later pick up because we were so tired from travel. Just know that the pyramids will be more crowded and to go inside the Greta pyramid it is very very hot and crowded at those times. So consider going early even if you’re tired.
Mona was a great tour guide. Letting us take our time and taking great photos of our family. She was very knowledgeable.
I loved the camel ride too. Make sure you bring money for tips for the camel ride and for the guide of course! We got our hair wrapped at the pyramids, more expensive probably but worth it!
All the shops at the pyramids are very nice. We got gelato but you can easily get snacks or drinks.
Lunch was just ok. They could choose a better spot.

Amazing Tour!
Amazing tour - Mahmoud made a really great experience out of this tour - he made it really fun and helped me learn a lot about the pyramids! The information he gave was very well rounded and in a perfect format to digest as a holiday tour. But he could also answer many quite detailed and maybe more untypical questions of mine - He has a lot of in-debt knowledge. However: Most of all the experience was real fun and a damn cool vibe!
(Side note - In retrospect I spent a little too much money in the perfume shop at the end. It's not at all a rip-off, the products are of an excellent and really exceptional quality - but maybe worth taking care ;))
Thank you so much man and sorry for my review being so late XD
I'll hit you up again, next time I come to Egypt :)

Ask for Wael! This was an amazing tour.
Wael was by far the best tour guide we had on our 6-day trip in Egypt. He is a 3rd generation tour guide with vast knowledge of Egyptian history and culture. One of the highlights of our trip was enjoying Turkish coffee at El Fishawy Cafe in the Bazaar and talking all things Egypt with Wael.
Objects sold in the Bazaar are meant for tourists and are low quality. Prices will also be unfair, so be prepared to negotiate. **If you do not want to be harassed in the Bazaar but still want to see it, we recommend going at 9am while shops are still opening**.
On Sundays, Coptic holds mass and you will not be able to enter the church until 11am.

Just amazing, from the transfer to the amazing guide Al wazir
We had an amazing experience with Al wazir which guided us through the beauties of GEM, picking us up and dropping us off directly from the hotel in Giza with a private and very clean car. With his deep knowledge and expertise of Egyptologist, he explained us all the most important pieces and answered all our questions and curiosities. Very appreciated that he didn’t rush us at all and we could explore the museum taking all the time we wanted.
Very recommended!

Best experience with Mohamed Mohey
We had the very luck experience of having Mohamed Mohey as our guide, he was fantastic. It was my birthday and he arranged a cake and show for me. He made us feel like superstars, timings were perfect and such attention to detail. Very pleased with his service. Many Thanks from me and my family

Great guide, and a good option for solo travellers
Hana was a great guide - very knowledgeable and easy to talk to, gave me plenty of time to take photos and ensured I wasn't pressured into buying anything at the market. It's quite an intense, colourful experience, nice to see the historical buildings and inside a mosque too. I booked at quite short notice, so appreciated this being accommodated so quickly.

Hidden History Of Cairo
Little did I know quite how fascinating this tour would be. The early Coptic Churches that we visited were from the 4th Century AD! My guide, Ereny, slowly drew me into the Coptic world - the first church, the Hanging Church, has some incredible icon artwork, carvings and overall design and Ereny explained the significance and history of everything as we went around. The tour was very friendly and relaxed, plenty of time to soak up the atmosphere in these buildings and take photos. The Cave Churches are also remarkable, you really have to be there to see the scale of what they have done. This tour, which includes lunch, is probably the best value tour that I went on - not only for that reason, but for the places that you visit, I would recommend it to anyone.
