5⭐️ Day at the Pyramids - Sometimes private transfers mean private with others but this wasnt the case. We were collected in our private mini bus an whilst driving was educated about Egyptian history which was really interesting. Giza was the first stop and busy but theres hop on hop off buses around so you can get about easily. We rode camels which was interesting! I’d probably tip the person taking you out when you get on if you’re fussy with pics as that part felt a little rushed (i really wanted me on a camel in front of the pyramids so asked them to be retaken and was obliged). Second set of pyramids were well worth the additional time as the hieroglyphics were sooo good and we went inside. Our late lunch was chicken shish (pizza for my veggie colleague) and very delicious. This is definitely worth a day if you’re in Cairo

Rasha - You’re a star - Rasha is an exceptional planner who stays ahead of schedule and ensures everything runs seamlessly. Her passion and in-depth knowledge while explaining the details of the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) and the Giza Pyramids truly stood out.
She contacted us a day in advance to confirm the pickup time and location and advised us to book tickets online to avoid long queues at GEM and Giza. The driver was extremely professional and arrived five minutes before the scheduled time. Rasha joined us on the way and began sharing insights right from the start.
At GEM, Giza, and Khan Khalili market, she explained every minute detail with clarity and enthusiasm. After finishing at GEM, she suggested a two-hour camel ride at Giza — which turned out to be one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives. She coordinated with a friendly and respectful camel owner who guided us through the pyramids and helped us capture stunning photos. Unlike other tourists who were struggling to negotiate and were being quoted three times the price, we had a smooth and fair experience without any pressure for extra tips. These thoughtful arrangements truly make the difference between an average trip and an extraordinary one.
When we returned from the camel ride, she had already ensured fresh, hot food was ready for us — despite the fact that she herself was fasting. This level of professionalism and care is rare.
She also honestly advised us not to shop at Khan Khalili market, explaining that many items were not authentic Egyptian products but made in China. Instead, she recommended a couple of genuine local shops for souvenirs, which turned out to be very special. She still took us to Khan Khalili for a walk so we could experience it ourselves, and we understood exactly what she meant. Additionally, she showed us a few extra places that were not even part of the package.
Every single minute of our time was valued, and she made each one truly worthwhile.
Rasha, you are a star — keep shining!
Thanks and regards,
Bhargava

I'm relieved. - While there were many gaunt tour guides, they were kind enough to explain it firmly even though it was silent
He did the textile work.
The drivers were also much safer than on other tours.

Fantastic Day at the pyramids - We had good communication from the outset with Rasha meeting us in the hotel reception. Our day was dictated by the crowds in areas so we headed to Giza for the tour and camel ride to start. Rasha gave so much history regarding Egypt and the areas we were seeing, it was really useful. Hossam was there waiting when we finished each visit and drove us safely round the busy streets of Cairo. Sakkara was amazing to see the hieroglyphics and visit the inside of the pyramid with Memphis a nice place to finish. Lunch was a chicken shawarma and fries and was super tasty. I’d definitely recommend this tour and the team - thankyou!

The best tour operator I could imagine! - I used HABIBI's services in April and even now for this New Year's week. I had incredible service and honest prices.
It is precisely because I had a great time on the first trip (Cairo, Giza, Saqqara, Menphis and Nile cruise plus Abu Simbel that I decided to return to see other places. The ship that found us was of a high standard, and the Italian guides really professional and helpful.
This time we went to see the new museum with the complete treasure of Tuthankamon and many other things we had not seen of Cairo. We spent two beautiful days in the desert (black and white), sleeping in a tent and dining under the stars around the fire.
In short, everything magnificent!
