Amazing tour

Our tour guide Marco was very knowledgeable and had fun ideas for photos. He took us to all the best photo spots and explained the historical and cultural significance behind all the sites. We highly recommend booking through him!

This tour was absolutely amazing and exceeded every expectation. The itinerary was perfectly organized, but what truly made the experience extraordinary was our guide, Marco. His deep knowledge of Egypt’s history and culture is simply remarkable. He brought every site to life with stories, insights, and details that only a true expert can share. Marco’s passion for Egypt is contagious — he made us feel like we were traveling back in time with every temple and monument we explored. Beyond his expertise, he was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure everyone felt comfortable and engaged. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt, and if you can, request Marco — he will turn a great trip into an unforgettable journey!

Giza pyramid & museum - knowledge with fun

We absolutely loved this experience ! The pyramids are outstanding ( such in view as in knowledge) and our guide Nevin made it so fun and filled with curiosities that not even the hot temperatures made the difference . We also went to civilization museum , that is also incredibly maintained with so many artifacts and even mummies that are so well preserved that we could get the atmosphere of 2000 years BC . Once again the museum was even nicer with Nevin knowledge about the artifacts and timelines . Definitely we recommend this tour ( and a big thank you to Nevin that provided us such a perfect day ) .

Spectacular Tour

A huge thanks to Nevin for making our day spectacular. Very knowledgeable and informed about the history, made our visit to the pyramids and the civilizational museum (the Egyptian museum is already very naked since a new one will open on 01/11) was really wonderful! Nevin is the best guide we could have had! Super recommended tour!!

Great outing to the pyramids

We booked the tour with Latif and did the saqqara and the Giza pyramids plus the Cairo city tour with Nevin as our guide. It was a visit to remember as our guide was not only knowledgeable and informative but also takes good photos and recommends all d best places to visits. We highly recommend them for a fun and memorable tour

Awesome Giza Pyramid experience ♥️

This is our first visit to Egypt and Nevin made it memorable for us !! She’s friendly, knowledgeable and helpful in her recommendations. She is also a good photographer. Making sure we were comfortable and ensuring we get to see the important sights and also letting us try the local Egyptian food. We covered Saqqara and Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx on our first day and did Cairo city tour on our second day. I would highly recommend Latif and team.

Unforgettable Egypt Experience — Thanks to Our Amazing Guides and Driver! 🇪🇬✨

Our trip to Egypt was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to the incredible team who looked after us from start to finish! Day 1 – Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Civilization Museum & Lunch. We had a private tour with Ahmed, who was simply fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable and went the extra mile to give us an amazing experience. As two women visiting Cairo alone, we felt completely safe and well taken care of. Ahmed made sure we were comfortable, made extra stops so we could do some shopping, and shared fascinating insights throughout the day. It was such a wonderful start to our trip! Days 2–4 – Exploring with Marvellous Marco! Our guide for the next few days was Marco — Marvellous Marco! What a gem. He’s a walking encyclopedia with a great sense of humour. His English is excellent, and his storytelling brought Egypt’s history to life. He also took us to great shopping spots with fixed prices (no haggling!) — absolute bargains and such a time-saver. We also enjoyed a magical evening Nile River Cruise, which was one of the highlights of our trip. When Marco wasn’t available for one of our day tours, we truly missed him — he felt like a brother away from home! Our Amazing Driver – Bador Throughout the entire holiday, Bador was our driver, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He’s a true gentleman — polite, patient, and always looking out for us. He never hesitated to take detours when we wanted to stop somewhere, and he never asked for anything extra. He went above and beyond — helping us cross roads safely and even waiting nearby like a guardian angel. Thank you, Ahmed, Marco, and Bador, for making our trip to Egypt so special and unforgettable. You made us feel safe, welcome, and cared for every step of the way. We can’t recommend you enough! 🌟

Excellent experience with our driver Mohamed Ali

We booked a car and driver service with Latif for a day going to visit Giza Pyramids and NMEC. Mohamed Ali, who was our driver for the day, was fantastic. Punctual, polite and very friendly. Although he wasn’t a tour guide, he told us a lot of interesting facts about the sights we were driving past. The roads in Cairo are manic with not many people following any rules, but Mohamed Ali remained calm at all times. We felt safe on the road with him and are grateful to him for making the day go so smoothly. If we were to return to Cairo we would ask for him personally. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

Excellent ounce in a lifetime pyramid and museum tour

Ebrahim was an excellent tour guide, he was full of information and extremely friendly. He catered to our needs as we had a small child with us. He helped us capture all our memories. Would definitely recommend.
