Giza

Ab_A, Dec 2025

The guide was knowledgeable about Egypt's history and culture. Provided a comprehensive overview before taking us through the Giza pyramid. She also provided guidance on local food and produce. We had a fantastic camel ride at the end of the tour. We were also taken to spots to learn about the production of essential oils and papyrus products. It was interesting to know that. Ended with a good lunch included in the package.

Incredible, once in a lifetime experience.

Great experience, not too exhausting and well organized. Robert Fayez the guide was excellent, very well organized and knowledgeable, true gentleman. It was a great pleasure to visit those ancient monuments with such great organization.

Enjoyable half day tour to Giza Pyramids.

This was a well timed half day experience. We hit all the sights on the itinerary and then had a fabulous lunch. Good driver and clean car. The guide was also a good photographer.

Eman was a great guide. Italian and English speaker, she's enthusiastic and really prepared on the Giza site. Pickup was previously agreed and time-effective. Highly recommended company.
