Best time in Egypt! - Had the pleasure of having a day tour with Muhammad and driver Wael! Muhammad is very knowledgeable and knows his history. He took us on a day trip to multiple locations and was very friendly and informative and just fun to hang out with. Great service; he came and picked us up at our hotel and dropped us off at the end of the day. Lunch was great too, I would highly recommend this tour!

Amazing tour - I hadn’t decided how I wanted to tour the pyramids and my hotel suggested this tour - I’m so thrilled they did! It was an incredible 6 hour tour and I saw and learned so much. If I had tried to do it on my own I would have experienced maybe 10% of what I did. Muhammad was a great guide and explained everything and the driver was always right there when we were ready to go to the next place. I can’t recommend this tour enough - don’t try to do it alone when this is available!

Fantasic and smooth Egyptian Experience with Hala - I had a short holiday to Egypt and just 2 days in Cairo/Giza. I'm very lucky Hala was my guide, I am a solo female traveler and because of my short time in the city I wanted to pack in as much as possible. It is clear Hala has been doing this for a long time, as she has all the hookups. ;) We became fast friends and not only did the Day Tour to Giza Pyramids but also the Day Tour to Cairo. I will reccomend her to tour with anyone I know going to Cairo and know they will be in safe and very knowledgeable hands. (And you can be sure you will get the best pictures of your experience) Thank you from my heart Hala!!

My fabulous experience!!! - I had the tremendous pleasure of having Hals as my tour guide for this magnificent tour! I spent an entire month in Egypt and met her only a few days before I left which was the sad part because she was the most magnificent tour guide I’ve ever had as well as an extraordinary human being. Her knowledge about Egyptology was outstanding and her focus on making it one of the best few days of my Egyptian journey as well as my life was extraordinary. I have a Masters degree in anthropology and huge expectations and she surpassed any expectations that I had! Not only did she have an extraordinary content but she included personal experiences that made things even more memorable! I will be returning to Egypt next year and Hals will be a consistent part of my itinerary! She is the epitome of the beautiful Egyptian! I loved every single moment with her! I cannot wait to return to beautiful Egypt add my beautiful new friend! Karen Sutherland
