Great time with the driver.

I took the service that was the driver only without tour guide and tickets. The experience was great. I had a wonderful time with the driver that drove me to the different attractions without any hurry. He also suggested me places that were not in my original plan. Highly recommended.

Great experience covering outside Cairo

Wonderful experience around Cairo, covering several smaller pyramids and Memphis in one go. The car is new, clean and in good condition. The driver Mohamed is such a nice and helpful, making our trip most enjoyable experience. Definitely recommend for seeing Bent pyramid, Step pyramid and Memphis.

Fantastic tour

Our guide was extremely helpful and caring, we had a wonderful experience, the area and attractions were amazing, so quiet compared to the great pyramid but equally if not more impressive

A pleasant and satisfying day.

The night before, the makeshift next day at 10 o'clock, I thought it was a big group, but set out to know only the two of us tourists, so it became a VIP group. We were given a day-long tour by a driver and a guide, Ahmed, a PhD candidate in Egyptology, who was informative, well-learned and passionate about his culture. Very satisfied with the trip, I hope you have fun too.

Sakkara und Memphis tour war top!

Abholung und Rückfahrt war top. Wir haben uns für die Stufenpyramide Djoser in Sakkara und Memphis mit dem liegenden Ramses II (anders, als überall zu googlen, liegt er heute in Memphis) und einem Freilichtmuseum entschieden. Mehr hätte unser Kopf nicht mehr aufgenommen. 2x Eintritt und viel gesehen und bestaunt. Würde ich wieder so machen und auf die rote und Knickpyramide verzichtet. Auf den Fahrten ein bißchen von dem tatsächliches Ägypten gesehen. Ackerbau mit Hacke per Hand z. B. Unser Fahrer war Mohamad und alles war top. Er hatte noch einiges dazu zu erzählen und wir haben unsere tour mit ihm abgestimmt, wie wir sie haben wollten. Sehr schönen Tag gehabt, gerne wieder. Tania
