Very Cool Experience! - This was a very memorable experience for us and we did this on our last day before our late night flight. Very close to Cairo and Giza. Going inside the bent Pyramid all the way to the chamber was a highlight for my kids! Very tight spaces! So much history in this country. Guide was so sweet! She enjoyed giving the tour and bought us a traditional sugar cane drink on the ride back.

Dahshur, Saqqara and Memphis City - We had a brilliant tour of Saqqara, Dahshur and Memphis with Hosam. He was very knowledgeable, providing us with lots of information about each location we visited, and also about Egypt in general and hieroglyphics. We saw everything we wanted to and he let us complete the tour at our own pace. His English was great and we would definitely recommend him.

Inside journey in a pyramid - The pyramids were amazing. We really enjoyed the explanation of the images we saw inside the pyramids. The statue at Memphis was larger than we imagined.

Great driver - We went with a driver only, and this was a fluent English speaking person who was a great guide in small doses. We loved the experienced, as all went well and Youssef (hopefully I am spelling our friendly driver's name correctly) was very kind, patient and informative.

Great experience with Hisham in Cairo - Our tour guide Hisham is just amazing. He was so acknowledgeable that he was able to give us a detailed answer to each of our random questions on site. He tried to accommodate every requirement we had, eg. adding the hanging church to our trip and even though we did not ask him to tour guide us, he gave us detailed information about the hanging church before leaving us. His kindness and professionalism is really impressive and highly recommended by me and my friend.
