Guide in Egypt, Sayed Mohamed. High-level tour! - Definitely Sayed Mohamed is the best guide of Egypt, a great connoisseur of the ancient history of Egypt, his education and wisdom impressed us. He is extremely patient, calm, cuts and a great photographer, our photos were beautiful. He explained each question in detail, and speaks English very well. I highly recommend Sayed Mohamed and the driver Andrew, they are very reliable, available and helpful. Andrew was extremely punctual and patient in traffic and made a beautiful video of us walking a camel. You can go without fear! Great tour, aue became better with the great attention, offered by Sayed and Andrew. The day was great and it couldn't have been better. Thank you for everything Sayed and Andrew! Sayed my mother was extremely happy with the gift, I have no words to thank you enough, thank you very much!

Amazing experience! - This was an amazing experience! Gamal was the best tour guide. I would highly recommend asking for him. He is very knowledgeable and will provide you with amazing details all along the tour. When he suggested a shop to stop at, it was actually worth it, not like other guides who take you to a tourist trap. I’d give more stars if possible.

Lifetime tour - Very competent and pleasant guide who revealed for us the details of the pyramids history in Sakkara and Giza. Visit to the crafts shop is a great opportunity to buy genuine souvenirs produced at the shop. Therefore take the cash with you because the credit cards terminal doesn't function well due to the bad lines. This was the highlight of our visit to Giza.

Amazing half day trip - Our trip started with pick up from the hotel . We got a private tour with our amazing guide Mimo and the sweet driver Ahmed. Mimo was fantastic, explaining the history at each of the spots we went to - Pyramids Sphinx and Saqara. Hevis knowledgeable about the history of each of the monuments and has the knack of explaining it crisp without boring you :) He was very patient allowing us plenty of time to explore each spot and taking a lot of lovely photos for us at every spot. Would absolutely recommend Mimo. Probably best would be to ask specifically for him. We had a fantastic day, one to remember for sure!

Trip to the Pyramids, Memphis, Saqqara - Family of four, we had a day trip to pyramids, Memphis and Saqqara guided by Mustafa. Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable, he showed us around while he explained and told the story behind the buildings and the different historical places. He also took many pictures of us so we can always look back and remember those moments. It was always a dream to see these places in real life, specially the pyramids.
We also rode on camels and had traditional Egyptian lunch.
It was a very nice trip, and even though it was only a day we experienced a lot and had a great time. Thanks to Mustafa

Well Organized Tour - Ahmed Elsayed Swas very courteous and friendly. He was right on time and welcomed us warmly. He was quite engaging and even offered to help with any questions we might have during our stay in Egypt.He encouraged us to visit Topaz Bazaar on our way back which has got all kinds of arts and crafts.But he was not pushy at all if we didnt want to buy anything.Overall we had a great time

The sights are worth a... - The sights are worth a visit. But the guide did not leave the bus when visiting the sights and instead of giving us information she told us to ask her question afterwards.
