An unforgettable day

We had a very great day, which Hany, our tour guide accompanied wonderfully competently. He had a lot of knowledge, which he passed on to us in very good German and always provided enough breaks. The NEM is really impressive! At noon there were the best falafel, we will not find such again at home. The pyramids were in the fog, but we made the most of it and Hany took numerous great photos of us. The driver, I think his name was Kareem, was always on time and the rides pleasant. Thank you for this great day!

I had such a fantastic...

I had such a fantastic time with Hassen Ghanem. We spent the day in the Egyptian museum and the pyramids and he's a fantastic guide. He's so knowledgeable, patient with all random questions & I would highly recommend getting a private guide while you are in Cairo!

Must do trip in Giza and Cairo. Can’t Miss the Giza pyramids and HEM

This was a very well curated tour and our Guide Marco is an exceptional guy. The Giza pyramids are mesmerising and Grand Egyptian Museum will give you goosebumps.

Meya Meya Incredible Experience

Marco was amazing. His knowledge on Egypt was incredible and the way he described to us every detail was so fascinating and gave us something we couldn’t experience without him. He knew everyone which made the journey a breeze, helping us into cabs and dealing with hagglers and shopkeepers. He also took us to the front of queues and gave us a great experience to remember. Marco is a funny and friendly man, great with our kids and helpful with everything. Highly recommended!

Amazing

Second time visiting in the last six months and there was no doubt in my mind that I should book another pyramid tour with Nevin. Her knowledge is absolutely fantastic and the whole day was tailored and pitched perfectly to what we wanted to do. Thank you for a wonderful day and hope to see you again soon!

It was a really good time.

I asked for a guide who could speak Japanese and Mr. Forward showed me around. He showed me around the pyramids of Giza with him. The guide has an annual license and is with us except in the pyramid. I have lived in Fukuoka and I know a lot about Japanese culture. After that, we went to the Grand Museum of Egypt, where the Japanese ODA is used, so there are three explanations in Arabic, English and Japanese. There was also a photo of Sakuji Yoshimura. They have accurate answers to questions such as why the statue has a nose and why the statue has a left foot in front of it, and they are well-informed. Lunch includes Egyptian koshari. After that, we had tea ☕️ at the market and finished. But if you wanted to see belly dancing along the way, they arranged a set for belly dancing and a night cruise. It's a $100 course, but it's good enough. Belly dancing and tannula, which are two revolving dances. This tannula was amazing. They dropped me off completely from 8am to 19:30am. There are several pick-up and drop-off points, and it is a 3-minute walk from my hotel. There are few Japanese language guides, so it is more expensive than English language guides. But it's Egypt, which is hard to come to. Please use it. I had a really fulfilling day.
