- Pyramids of Giza - The construction of the pyramids remains one of history’s most ancient and intriguing mysteries. Throughout history, scholars and scientists have repeatedly pondered the question of how these magnificent structures were built. The Great Pyramids of Giza, along with over 100 other Egyptian pyramids, are hailed as the pinnacle of human engineering and architecture. These monuments have stood resiliently for over 4,500 years, and their construction continues to be an enigma. Ancient Egyptian scriptures provide some insight into the methods used to construct these monumental structures. These massive limestone or mudbrick edifices are the oldest known man-made structures on Earth.
- Great Sphinx - Statues of this kind first appeared in Egypt as two-dimensional representations at the beginning of the dynastic period. However, the first depiction of a king as a sphinx emerged in the middle of the 4th dynasty. King Djetef Ra, the successor of King Cheops, was the first to have a sphinx statue, marking the initial royal representation in this form. This statue was discovered near his pyramid at Abu-Rawash in El Giza and is now housed in the Louvre Museum.

A tour manager from Memphis Tours will collect you from your Cairo hotel to begin your Pyramid Tours, featuring visits to the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus. The journey continues with a visit to the Great Sphinx, a remarkable structure with a pharaoh’s head and a lion’s body, dating back to Chephren’s era. The tour also includes a stop at the Valley Temple, associated with the Pyramids of Chephren. This temple had two primary purposes: it was used for the purification of the king’s mummy before burial and for the mummification process itself.

Excellent planning & coordination - Marwa & her team of tour guides were outstanding. She was extremely accommodating to our group. We had late changes to our trip & she was able to make it all work.
Each tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. It was critical to have them along. From Alexandria to Cairo & our Nile cruise, we had expertise to make the sites more impressive & educational. A special shout out to Azab who accompanied us on the Nile cruise. He was outstanding!

Exceptional experience in Giza/Cairo and on the Nile. - This is the second time I have used Memphis Tours for an Egypt visit with the highlight of Giza/Cairo and a Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan plus Abu Simbel. Marwa Samir does an exceptional job planning the trip and providing support and they are great value for money compared to the American alternatives for the same itinerary. Our guide on the Nile Cruise, Abdul Elhassany, deserves special mention he is an archeologist with two Masters degrees so added so much extra value with his extensive knowledge and great personality. Also Kerolos who looked after us in Giza/Cairo did an outstanding job. The Nile Cruise was on the Historia this time and the crew, the room and the overall experience were all at the elite level. I would highly recommend using Memphis Tours and the Historia if you plan going to Egypt.

Egypt being on our bucket list was made a seamless experience with Memphis tours; with special thanks to Amgad Fawzy. - It was recommended by my husband who had travelled Egypt last year with Memphis and was a satisfied traveller. We were also equally satisfied with all arrangements as well as prompt reverts for any query we had.
We were received by our tour leader at Cairo Airport by Mr. Amgad Fawzy, who is an excellent communicator as well as amazing organiser. We would all like to thank him for all his support and his impeccable behaviour.
We would also like to thank Sam, our guide who was very knowledgeable as well as a fine man to spend time with. Overall, a memorable experience

Pyramids, Egyptian Museum, and Coptic Cairo - We booked our entire Egypt trip through Memphis tours, we are well traveled and don’t usually use a tour company but many friends advised it was best for our trip to Egypt. This review is specifically for our tour in Cairo. We spent one day touring the Pyramids, Sphinx , and Saqqara, and one day at the Egyptian Museum and Coptic tour. Our guide was Ahmed Helal and he was fantastic. First and foremost he made us feel incredibly welcome in Egypt. His knowledge was impressive as well as his photography skills. We’re so happy we got to spend two days with him and would recommend him to anyone. I’d like to also thank Ahmed for answering all of my questions. I am interested in religions in general and he took the time to explain the Muslim religion to me in more detail, and this wasn’t part of our tour. If you’re going to Egypt I recommend you find Ahmed to guide you!

Mid-term evaluation... - I put 3 because they are very present and attentive, we traveled with them and volkena tour, we did luxor, aswan, cairo and cruise on the nile. All good and good organization and careful, reliable and honest. The guide who accompanied us to luxor, aswan and Nile cruise, Moaz is really good, prepared and with an excellent Italian. We cruised on a dahabeya qeen Nefer, nothing fantastic but pretty, adequate and with wonderful onboard staff. They really pampered us. We stayed in Luxor at Sonesta St.George Luxor wonderful, Tolip at Aswan good, King pyraminds view at Cairo terrible. But they don't let reviews get into platforms so you don't know until you get there. The 3 stars in the rating are related to these last days in Cairo. All the monuments visited, Luxor, Edfu, Karnak, valley of temples with a guide like Moaz were really worth the trip and...the expense. Jan Ramsis the person from Volkena who organized the tour was always very attentive and present, I organized everything with great ease. Tour operators that I recommend but check the hotels and if you do not find reviews, ask to change.
