Great trip to Saqqara and Memphis
Another great day with Meraa our tour guide to Saqqara. She was really knowledgable about the sites visited and we were blown away by everything we saw. It finished with a fantastic lunch overlooking the Giza pyramids. Would definitely recommend this trip!

Immersed in the old Egyptian history
Our guide Ahmed Hamed and driver Hamidi picked us up at the our hotel spot on, made sure we had water and juice on our way, and already whole driving we learned a lot. Seeing the countryside life while Hamidi made sure to drive safely over some challenging roads was interesting. Then Sakkara, our guide Ahmed is so knowledgeable and well spoken that we enjoyed every moment and detail of our visit. No hassle with entries and tickets, this was all taken care of very smoothly, and no rush at any site. The driver was always ready for us to go to the next stop. The day was crowned by a nice lunch in a special restaurant with a pyramid view. Memorable ! We were happy to have the same guide and driver also for our next day in old Cairo, this time they already felt as friends.

Good Vibes!
Mein Mann und ich hatten eine gute Zeit mit Ahmed die Pyramiden von Dashur, Memphis und Saqqara zu besuchen. Saqqara war unser Favorit.

Ibrahim war ein ausgezeichneter...
Ibrahim war ein ausgezeichneter Führer. Ich merkte, er liebte es, Geschichte mit uns zu teilen! Unser Fahrer war auch gut. Sie waren pünktlich in einem schönen sauberen Auto. Er zeigte uns Dinge, die die großen Touren nie sehen würden. Gehen Sie nicht den langen dunklen Krabbel in der Pyramide hinunter. Ibrahim hat eine bessere zu sehen und Sie werden nicht für Geld belästigt werden.

Ein brillanter Tagesausflug, geleitet von Mahmoud, brillant
Mahmoud Ismail war unser Reiseleiter. Ein echter Gentleman, sehr sachkundig und großzügig mit seiner Zeit. Gizeh ist erstaunlich, aber diese Seiten sind noch besser. Abgeholt uns in einem komfortablen Auto in unserem Hotel und sicher gefahren, auch im ägyptischen Verkehr! Er hat uns sehr willkommen. Anschließend ein herrliches Mittagessen, gemischter Grill, mit Blick auf die Pyramiden von Gizeh. Würde 100 % empfehlen

Excellent Introduction to ancient Egypt
Our guide was Mohamed Elshemei. He was very knowlegeable and patient with questions. The climb into the Bent pyramid was a challenge but worthwhile for the experience.

A great day out with a great guide.
Just did the tour with Mohammed Elshemei. Wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable. Very attentive. Well worth doing. The climb into the Red Pyramid is not fit the faint hearted or unfit. It's tight and very warm. The restaurant for lunch at the base of the Pyramids of Giza with the views was incredible. I had a great day.

Excellent Trip
Our guide was Ibrahim Allam, and driver Ezzat Zizo. Excellent trip, friendly, informative enthusiastic and helpful guide and a great driver with comfortable car. Sakkara mastabas and Dahsur pyramids a real highlight of holiday to Cairo. Definitely worth adding this trip if seeing Giza pyramids and museums. Route out of the city and into countryside and desert interesting contrast with the city and Lunch with a view at the end too. Recommended

A great way to start a trip in Cairo and the Nile.
Meraa Ahmed was our guide. She was well informed, professional and attentive. We learned a great deal about ancient Egyptian history and were alerted to things to take special note of as we visited each site.
We are here in Cairo a few days prior to starting a 16 day tour of Egypt and the Nile. Our tour guide for that trip recommended taking a guided tour of the Saqqara area as it would be a great introduction to everything we would be seeing on his tour. It was just as he suggested. We are so glad we did this and with such a great guide.
