Phenomenal - An well executed plan, which could not have materialised without the high degree of professionalism demonstrated by our vibrant young guide, Asmaa. She is an star student of Egyptology and she articulately narrates the background of the museum artefacts alluding to our daily life experiences. Her familiarity about the pyramids of Giza, especially the hows-and-whens during the outdoor section of the GEM trip, including the optional cancel ride, is the add on you get from the elegant Asmaa.
As a bonanza, Mr Hany also helped plan a Felicca on the Nile and it was flawless and refreshing. Mr Hany made all the necessary arrangements so well!

Informative and unforgettable Giza Pyramid experience - I had a full day tour to the Giza pyramids and see the grand Egyptian museum with Hany which turned out amazing.
I got picked up by a nice car early in the morning and the car is stocked with snacks and water. We then headed to the pyramid plateau and Hany was very knowledgeable in the history and stories about ancient Egyptians. The tour included a camel ride too which was fun.
After seeing the magnificent pyramids and sphinx, Hany showed me to some of the interesting souvenirs stores including papyrus and spices. After lunch, the tour to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) was amazing. Hany went through its architecture and also the different galleries from ancient Egypt to modern day. The GEM experience is so much better with a knowledgeable guide.
Highly recommend the tour for the comfort and informative guiding.

From the Museum to the Pyramids—An Unforgettable Experience - As someone who's always been fascinated by ancient Egyptian civilization, this tour offered an incredible opportunity to engage with it up close. Visiting the museum was especially educational—it really deepened my understanding. In hindsight, I wish I had done a bit of research beforehand; I think it would have made the experience even more enjoyable.
I ended up visiting the Pyramids of Giza four times in total—twice as part of a tour and twice on foot since my hotel was located right at the base. One of the photos I took, thanks to a unique angle suggested by our tour guide, is still a conversation starter to this day. It made me realize just how much a great guide can elevate an experience.
A special thanks to Mr. Hany Brish, our guide, and to the driver (sorry I forgot your name!). Next time, I’ll be back with friends or family. Hope to see you again soon!

Perfect for making fun memories - I asked for an English guide at the museum and pyramid.
Hany brish, who showed me around this time, was very kind and protected me from being snatched and I felt safe.
They can do that, and they will make a lot of suggestions because they have this, but if you don't need it, they won't insist on saying no, and they'll listen to a lot of requests.
They suggested a lot of interesting poses while taking pictures and I had a lot of good memories.
The driver, Shady, was also friendly and smooth to drive.
I really enjoyed my first trip to Egypt, thanks to Hany and Shady.
It was an experience that made me want to go to Egypt again.

He taught us about the museum and the pyramids! He also took many of the best photos.

You can take us if you want to go anywhere else! We were taken to Hanhariri this time in addition to the museum and pyramids.
Thank you for a good tour and nice memories for us.
