Unforgettable
Amal was our tour guide and very friendly; she guided us well through Egyptian history and with her affectionate manner, she even motivated our youngest (4 years old). It was super interesting, we saw a lot, and were able to take beautiful memories home with us. Highly recommended.

Cairo excursion
Superb, the well-planned excursion was very worthwhile, and what one sees is overwhelming. Cairo is definitely worth a visit. Amal as a travel companion was super friendly and explained everything nicely. We would book the excursion again. :)

Pyramids and gem museums
Cairo via plane was fantastic. Semi private pick up from accommodation details of check in given by driver. Flight was 70 minutes compered to 5 hour drive. On landing headed out arrivals to a kiosk for on the beach. Given our driver, collected our guide and went on our way. The day was amazing however just 1 quick note ask the guide for a detailed itinerary of the day. As we chose to miss the bazaar and perfume parts for longer in the museum.

10/10 experience, would highly recommend.
The whole experience was very organised, The first driver picked us up from our reception exactly on time, he was very friendly. When we arrived at Cairo we met our second driver Sharif who drove us around to each stop in Cairo. He was also very friendly and helpful, he drove carefully and made sure we were comfortable. He Took us to Giza where we met our tour guide, Wessam. She was great. She had a vast knowledge of Egypt and answered all questions we asked no matter how stupid. She was very personable, and we got along great with her. We loved how when we got to the museum she gave us options on how we would like the tour to go. In all she was very passionate about her work. Thank you for the great experience we would highly recommend this tour to friends.

It was an all-around successful day!
It was a beautiful day. Just as we had envisioned the trip. Starting with the good organization to our wonderful guide Amal. She had interesting facts ready at all times, explained everything very well in excellent German, and was extremely nice. Seeing the pyramids live was very impressive, and the large museum was amazing. We can only recommend the tour, especially with Amal. It was an all-around successful day.

It was an unforgettable day.
Here we actually booked a "worry-free package." From the transfer to the German-speaking tour guide, Amal, everything went wonderfully. We were able to experience an unforgettable day in Cairo.

What makes Egypt such a special destination!
The day was planned and executed so that we can know not only the most usual tourist circuit, but also small details that make Egypt such a special destination. We started with a small boat ride on the Nile, we went to the Pyramids and to the Sphinx. Then we had lunch at a restaurant with traditional food. We did a coffee/tea and traditional perfumery experience and we went to the Museum, which is absolutely wonderful. To finish, we had an experience of how papyrus is made and the different paintings that can be made. To improve I would just leave the suggestion that we can spend more time in the museum, it is really very good and worth it.
