This lady knows how to do all the best bits - We visited the museum and Giza plateau on Saturday 14/09 and we could not have asked for a better tour guide Hannah has the exact mix of knowledge, understanding and humour that you could wish for in a guide. Not only did she explain the history and the culture and the meaning of everything we saw she took time to correctly advise us on what was worth paying the extra on what was not worth it and if there was a way to achieve the experience without paying extra for it she knew that too. We also took in the Papyrus institute and a perfume place but fear not there was no hard sell and it was quite interesting . In a nutshell this little lady is a gem ,thank you so much Hannah

Visit to the Giza Pyramids and Museum - My husband and I visited Cairo on a group trip with Hanan Ali as our tour guide. With perfect English Hanan kept us informed of all the history of Egypt that we were experiencing during our trip. We visited the Egyptian Museum, the Giza pyramids, the Sphinx, with a camel ride by the pyramids (and entry into a pyramid tomb), the Egyptian Papyrus Institute, and a perfumery. Our excursion also included lunch and a boat cruise on the Nile! Had a lovely time on this trip! A completely honest, reliable and truly generous person, her bio says it all, Hanan really is a sister who will go above and beyond her duties to assist you and ensure your trip is the best of the best! We will not forget Hanan upon our return to London and we'll definitely recommend her tourguide services to anybody planning a trip to Egypt without a shadow of a doubt!
