Highlights

Pyramids of Giza - Egypt Gift Tours Egyptology guide will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza on time. Once you enter the Giza plateau area, you will be able to go very close to the Great Pyramid of Cheops, and staring at that massive structure, you will realize that your dream of visiting the only surviving wonder of the ancient world came true.
Your guide will provide you with historical insights into those 4600 years old tombs. Passing through the pyramids of Chephren and Menkaure, you will stop to click some photos of all the pyramids together. In that part of the Sahara Desert area, you will also have the chance to ride a camel, take nice clicks and have a lot of desert fun (optional).
After these pyramids, we visit the Valley Temple - The place where the priests mummified the dead body of king Chephren, owner of the second pyramid at Giza Plateau. It is also the place where you can have a close-up look at the Sphinx; the legendary guardian that stands by the huge funeral complex with its lion body and the head of king Chephren. This mysterious monument was carved to symbolize the pharaoh’s power and wisdom.
After this great tour, you will have the chance to go to a papyrus institute to see how the Egyptians produced this genuine artwork thousands of years ago.

Wonderful Egypt Experience - We have just completed a five day Egypt experience and have had a wonderful time. We really appreciated having Zakarya our tour guide with us the whole time from Aswan to Luxor. He took great care of us, always making sure we were happy with every aspect of our tour. He provided knowledgeable insights into each site we visited as well as giving us time to explore on our own. He also suggested some great additions to our tour such as the hot air ballooning in Luxor which turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. We highly recommend Zakarya for your tour of Egypt.

Outstanding Egypt Experience with Egypt Gift Tours! - Heba from Egypt Gift Tours provided outstanding service right from booking and throughout our tour. We really appreciated the prompt replies and answers to our questions. The tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and really looked after us, and we felt safe and comfortable with all the drivers. We also appreciated the support and advice given by our guides in relation to tipping and other aspects of the tour so we could relax and enjoy it. The tour itself is outstanding, covering many major sites and experiences such as the famous pyramids and temples and tombs. Cruising down the Nile on a 5 star boat was an experience of a lifetime. Thank you Heba and your great team for a wonderful experience. We highly recommend you book your Egypt experience with Egypt Gift Tours.

Live the culture - Egypt the civillization is impossible to truly experience without knowing hieroglyphs. We had the joy of having a very funny big daddy Ismail Haroun as our tour guide and family on this trip. He was also the one we trusted to bargain good prices from us and kept us safe from all possible tricks of hustling vendors at the tourist sites. Even the subtle notion of tipping was breached thoroughly as a culture to prepare us. The knowledge of an egyptologist past and present is indispensable to making the most of the trip and big daddy lived up to our expectations at every turn. The team of the cruise Lady Mary was amiable, hygienic and the smile of the manager Ehab Mohammed greeting us at every turn is unparalleled. We took an extra option and the hot air balloon over the valley of kings during sunrise ... absolutely majestic!
