Trusted, Educational, Secure, Safe, and Honest. - Mo was my tour guide for the day, and I was very impressed not only with his deep knowledge of Egyptian history, but also the fact that he speaks excellent English. I appreciate how interactive he was during the whole tour. As a traveler, I look forward to history and cultural immersion, which Mo very excellently did. Thank you very much for allowing me to create wonderful memories in Cairo.

Fantastic tour of the Giza plateau! - We had the most amazing tour of the Giza plateau, the pyramids and the Sphinx. This was a lifetime dream and it was exactly what we had hoped. Our tour guide Taher answered all of our questions and was patient as we toured the various sites. He took many pictures of us also! Also, our driver was very adept at navigating the Cairo traffic from our hotel to Giza. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough.

Great half-day trip to the Pyramids - The tour was great and Ahmed was a wonderful guide. He provided key facts for each of the pyramids or other places on the itinerary and generally made the experience enjoyable. As for the tour, it was exactly as described. I saw multiple angles, up close and far away, of the three largest pyramids and the sphinx. There were plenty of photo opportunities and stops to walk around. There are also a few optional add-ons like a camel ride and shopping, which might not be for everyone. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who has around four hours to spend at the Pyramids.

Ask for Ahmed and Omer - Ahmed Z was so informative and helpful during our tour. Omer the driver also was Helpful in getting us waters and being ready to go whenever and wherever we needed! They both really went out of their way for us to make sure we were having a great time. Ahmed introduced me to Turkish coffee and my very first Egyptian Falafel, it was delicious! Highly recommend this tour with him.

You won’t regret this tour! - Tito was the best tour guide we could have asked for! We are two women traveling to Cairo for the first time. We were a bit nervous but from the moment we met Tito, we knew we were in good hands! He is very knowledgeable, and accommodating! If you have the chance take this tour! Great views, information, food and conversation!
