Great day; fantastic tour guide Hazem! - We were picked-up from our hotel in the morning by our tour guide, Hazem. We, a group of 3, enjoyed an amazing and memorable day with him! First we visited the Giza pyramids and the sphinx. While on route, he provided us with a very interesting summarized account of Egyptian dynasties and the construction of the pyramids. Once there he was focused on making our experience the most comfortable one! He even helped us solving situations, like advising us when buying a scarf there for one of us for protection against the sun or finding an exchange house in the shortest time possible. He also gave us very good advise by suggesting to visit the Museum of Civilisation which we did. Hazem was very kind, warm-hearted, honest, always in good mood, very attentive. He knows a lot of history and culture of his country. He has been one of the best guides that we have met so far! Highly recommendable. Congratulations!

Day in Giza - We had a great day in Giza, visiting the pyramids. The staff was super helpful: Marena who supported us from Brazil until we arrived in Cairo, Ahmed Ragab the driver and Rambo the guide. The day was perfect. Rambo gave us lots of explanations about Egypt. We were delighted and very happy!

Pyramids experience - First of all I would like to thank Hadeer for her amazing hospitality. The experience overall was very good with lots history and sight seeing. And to top it off we had a nice meal too, it is well worth it. For extra tips wear comfortable shoes for the pyramids.

Nice trip to Pyramids! - The tour over all was nice. We went to interested places, covered main sites but didn’t do the camel ride as we didn’t want. We also did not do the desert buggy as this was offered after lunch at 4pm with a lot of heat outside so we didn’t feel like it. To our opinion this should be the start of the tour, not the end.
The entrance of the Giza pyramids is beautiful, however the end and exit of the area is very badly maintained. Many horses until extreme heat and ridden by people all the time, we found it very disturbing. Also a lot of rubbish everywhere.
Regarding our tour guide, she was nice but we felt like everything we learned came from our questions, there was no “pitch” or planned explanation of the huge history of Egypt. It was a bit empty.
The lunch was an open buffet and the food very nice, we enjoyed it. The driver was very thoughtful and polite.
Thank you for the day!
