Amazing tour of the pyramids and museum

We had an amazing time. Nevin was a great guide, who had a lot of knowledge about all we saw. The pyramids and Sphinx were spectacular to see up close and the museum was full of wonderful artefacts. Our guide Nevin paced the tour perfectly, so we were constantly seeing interesting things without being rushed. Her local knowledge was very useful and she had lots of friends and connections, which helped our tour :)

Outstanding Guide – Knowledgeable, Funny and Took Great Care of Us

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our guide, Marco, today. He took us to see the incredible pyramids and the Sphinx, followed by a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum. Marco was extremely knowledgeable and brought the history of Egypt to life in a way that was interesting and easy to understand. He was always open to our questions, never made us feel rushed, and had a great sense of humour that made the entire day even more enjoyable. What stood out most was how well he took care of us throughout the day. He was professional, pleasant, patient and genuinely wanted to make sure we had the best experience possible. Visiting the pyramids was already a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but having Marco as our guide made the day even more memorable. We would highly recommend Marco to anyone visiting Cairo who wants a knowledgeable, personable and trustworthy guide. Thank you, Marco, for an outstanding day that we will always remember! ★★★★★ 5/5 — Highly recommended.

Fantastic tour

Just got back from this tour with Hasan being our tour guide, he was extremely knowledgeable about the ancient Egyptian history and made our visit to the Pyramids, Sphinx and the Grand Egyptian Museum extra special. He also took us to a beautiful local restaurant for lunch and even paid for our GEM tickets on line for us as we hadn’t pre booked (We obviously paid him back!). Thanks Hasan, a truly fantastic experience.

A wonderful experience with Marco!

We had a great day. It could so easily have been a hassle but with Marco it was stress free and hugely enjoyable. He knows so much about Egyptian history it was a pleasure to listen to him. We asked a lot of questions but he was never thrown. He even knows hieroglyphics! He translated some inscriptions for us. We would not have had a tenth of the enjoyment and interest had we been on our own (or even with another guide I think). The logistics of the day were well organised. Marco took us to empty places to view the pyramids. He fended off enthusiastic street vendors. He guided us around the GEM avoiding crowds. He took photos of us that were so well posed that a couple asked him to take the same photo of them as he did of us. I think what was best was that he and our driver were friendly, funny and very likeable. We had a good time!

Disguised scam

The car was not comfortable. The guide pushes us to give tips and buy things 5 times more expensive than normal. Very brief in his comments and explanations. If we were alone, maybe it would have been better. No added value. It seems like he is scamming us.

Incredible experience

Nevin was absolutely incredible. She was prompt to pick us up from our hotel and what an amazing woman. She is so knowledgeable, she knows everything there is to know. She knows all the best spots to get incredible photos and she is like a local celebrity there and knows everybody, this was very useful as the experience was made so seamless. We had a fantastic day and I am so glad we chose to go with Nevin instead of going solo. Worth every penny.
