YES! - Left for the pyramids with the intention of visiting the site without a guide, when I accidentally met Sherif before the start of his free walking tour. A real stroke of luck because in the hours that followed I learned a great deal about ancient Egyptians and the site, both the main line and some interesting details about the pyramides in a perfect mix of scientific knowledge and humor. Long story short: 1000% recommend!

Best tour guide in Egypt as he is a professional archeologist and photographer - Tour was fantastic mainly because the tour guide Sherif is a professional archeologist and has excavated the Giza Pyramid and Sphinx areas. He has also lived abroad in the UK and USA, so his english and humour was very good. I learnt alot. He took some great pictures aswell as he is a photographer

First time in Giza with an amazing guide - Sherif was so so nice. We are so lucky to have received such a knowledgeable, kind, funny and engaging guide. I learned so much from this tour and also just had an amazing time. If you’ll be in Giza, I can’t imagine you can find a better guide than him. We’ll miss you Sherif!!

Biggest scam in Egypt! - We paid $56, expecting a wonderful memory at the Pyramids for my husband and me. The listing clearly stated it was a private trip, but at 7 AM on the day—when a full refund was no longer possible—the guide told us it wasn’t private and that there were four people in total. This was extremely disappointing and felt like the biggest scam I encountered in Egypt. Clearly, he changed the description now, but when I booked, it said PRIVATE TRIP. Who would pay so much for a shared tour? This guy is not reliable or trustworthy. We didn’t join the trip, hoping for a full refund, but got nothing. Writing this review to warn others and help fewer people get scammed.
