Very informative and safe

Had the best time with Nashat on the private tour. He was very informative across the pyramids, sphinx, and the GEM. Not only did I learn a lot but he took the time to answer any questions or make any extra stops I wanted. I highly recommend the experience. Never had a safety concern either as I traveled solo.

An unforgettable private tour, thanks to Marko and Mohammed!

We can't recommend Marko and our driver Mohammed highly enough. From start to finish, everything was completely private and tailored to us. Marko took us to places we would never have found on our own: spots where we didn't see a single other tourist. It felt like being shown the country by a friend rather than following a standard itinerary. His knowledge, warmth and storytelling made every stop come alive. Mohammed was an outstanding driver: safe, punctual, calm in any traffic and always thoughtful. The car was spotless and comfortable. What impressed us most was how flexible they both were. Whatever we needed, whether a change of plan, an extra stop, a slower pace or a quick break, they adapted instantly and without any fuss. If you want an authentic, personal experience away from the crowds, book Marko and Mohammed. We'd go with them again in a heartbeat. Thank you both!

Great Great Great

Naveen was so accomodating , took us to great vantage points for best pictures , poor thing was injured by a camel at the beginning but she kept soldiering on , all the vendors and security people were very complimentary of her , even saying we had the best guide in Giza! She took her time to explain certain things , and also made sure we maximised our time in the Massive GEM , to ensure we got to see the best things first We jam Packed a lot in our day , even requested some jewellery to be made and she knew Who to call for good quality

Nevine - Exceptional Tour guide for Pyramids, Museum complex, & Old Cairo Churches

We enjoyed Nevine’s endless historical and local knowledge in many ways. She guided our group at the pyramids, the Egyptian museum complex, and in Old Cairo at the 7 churches. Her handling of locals is imperatively needed if you are not from the area, and as someone who heavily researched history before, she added an aspect to the tour that cannot be captured in books and readings. She also knows the best photo spots and angles 😊. If you decide to elevate your experience by hiring Nevine, get ready for an exciting and fast pace run down of some of the most intriguing parts of Cairo and its surrounding areas!

Excellent Experience, Highly recommend

Nevin was incredible. Extremely punctual. She took care of everything for us- the tickets, communication, everything we requested she did and so much more. We were a large group of 9 people - ages 3 to 70- and she was able to accomodate all of us. If we ever come back to Egypt, she will be the person we request and recommend to all of our family and friends!
