Amazing tour of Grand Museum with Marco Naguib.

Amazing tour with guide Marco Naguib and his driver Abdol who drove us safely along the busy streets of Cairo. We got to the Grand Museum Giza and Marco was so well Informed about all the relics. His delivery with information was extremely professional. He is so well informed and pleasant man all round. I will use him and driver again whenever in Cairo. Thank you Marco.

Giza Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum

This is the second time that I've had the pleasure of being guided by Niven. The last time was about 10 years ago. She is an excellent guide and is very knowledgeable. She made sure that we got the best possible experience of both the pyramids and of the Egyptian museum. The museum is an absolute "must see". It's an amazing building and the exhibits are almost beyond belief. There's so much to see but Niven made sure we saw the best without becoming too overwhelmed. I can very highly recommend Niven.

The best Cairo trips

Our tour guide Marco was very precise and saved us time and money. I was also happy that he helped me every time I took a picture. The driver, Ayman, was also very good with his careful driving and on time.

What a awesome experience!! Just perfect!

We had an amazing experience with Nevin as our tour guide in Cairo. From the very beginning, she was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. We visited the pyramids, which was truly unforgettable, and Nevin made the whole experience even more special by sharing fascinating historical insights and making sure we avoided the typical tourist hassles. She also took us to enjoy some excellent local food and to feel the live in old-Cairo! We also had the chance to see how papyrus paper is made, which was both interesting and unique. One of the most impressive parts was visiting the new Cairo museum, Nevin’s explanations and way of providing information was awesome and brought everything to life. Throughout the tour, everything was very well organized, smooth, and tailored to our pace. Nevin went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. I highly recommend Nevin to anyone visiting Egypt — she truly made our trip memorable.

Best tour in 9 months❤️

This. Was. Amazing😁 I’ve been traveling for 9 months on a gap year, and this was my best guide experience so far. Got recommended to me by my mom and my friend separately, and I see why. Great value for the money, set me up with a very experienced guide, that could answer all my questions as we went from location to location to location. Fast on the answer. Organized and helpful. Many of the tickets were included in the price. When me or my family goes to Egypt again I know who we will message

The best day in Giza with Marco and Ayman. Pyramids, GEM, shopping and lunch.

This tour was amazing! It started with Ayman and Marco picking us up at the hotel. Ayman navigated the roads like a champion. Marco, our tour guide, was an amazing wealth of information. He took us to places that were not overly crowded with tourists and answered every question enthusiastically. He is the real deal! These two made it a special day. We saw pyramids, went into the Great Pyramid (not recommended if you get claustrophobic), saw the sphinx, shopped for essential oils, got a picture with camels, had an authentic Egyptian lunch of koshary and explored the GEM. A packed day!

Marco the amazing guide!

We had Marco as a guide for a tour of the pyramids and he was the best! He is an Egyptologist with 27 years of experience and he knew EVERYTHING. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable, he was also very friendly and accommodating to our group of Brits. His explanations were clear, humorous and very interesting! He even took us to a secret tomb near the great pyramid which is not generally open to the public. I can’t recommend him enough, thank you Marco!
