Les sites sont remarquables, encore plus avec un grand égyptologue comme Ahmed !
Nous avons adoré cette visite! Ahmed était un superbe guide, c'était comme être dans un cours d'égyptologie avec un excellent professeur passionné! Il était détaillé, précis et a répondu à toutes nos questions. Il nous a toujours donné assez de temps pour profiter des sites, donc nous ne nous sommes jamais sentis pressés. Les sites que nous avons visités (en particulier la pyramide coudée) sont vraiment remarquables et atmosphériques, et certainement mieux appréciés avec un guide qui sera en mesure de tout vous dire sur pourquoi ils ont été construits et comment. Ahmed avait également ses propres théories (là-bas) sur la technologie ancienne, mais l'a gardée extrêmement professionnelle en gardant son point de vue séparé par les explications "scientifiques". Aussi, Ahmed nous a aidés à organiser deux visites supplémentaires à Louxor pour les prochains jours sur place. Finalement, le déjeuner était délicieux.

Recomendadisimo en el Cairo
Fue una gran experiencia familiar, todo lo descrito en el tour fue realizado, Hesham es un gran guía, su español es bueno y sus explicaciones están llenas de historia y gran manejo del tema, recomiendo esta actividad para conocer mas de la historia y de la cultura antigua. Es muy buena actividad además Hesham es un gran Fotógrafo

Wonderful couple days with a guide that felt like a friend
I had such a great day in Giza with Ibrahim, I booked him for the next day even though social media tips said to try new guides. He was so great I couldn’t take the chance. I could tell he tailored the tour to my interests which I appreciated. He takes amazing pics too. Just felt like a conversation with a friend all day. Plus he took me to his favorite coffee shop which was cool. Thank you sir, I wish you were in all the other Egyptian towns I’ve been and am going to!

A GEM of a tour!
Brilliant day with GEM exploring the pyramids and Memphis museum. I’d visited the main Giza pyramids previously and was very pleased by how quiet and peaceful this tour was, and loved climbing inside the Painted and North pyramids in particular - although it’s quite tiring and a small space, not for the feint hearted! My guide Ibrahim was very knowledgeable and great fun to be with as a solo traveller, and Ahmed the driver provided countless ice cold waters from his cool box - much appreciated given how hot it was! The Kosahry for lunch was also delicious. Couldn’t recommend this tour more.

Worth visiting and quieter than Giza
The Saqarra and Dahshur sites are well-worth a visit and are much quieter than the Giza pyramids. The location marketed as ‘Memphis’ was, aside from the very impressive statue of Rameses, pretty disappointing - perhaps it’s all relative and just a bit of an anticlimax after seeing the Red and Bent pyramids, but there was no old city and just what looked for all the world like a reclaim yard of random recovered artefacts set in concrete bases. Our guide didn’t seem to be especially knowledgeable, but that may have been due to the language barrier - it wasn’t easy to get an answer to any questions that I had. The restaurant at the end of the tour (rather than 2/3 of the way through, as per the itinerary) was absolutely dreadful. The pyramids and the Rameses statue are great and deserve 5 stars, but the limited tour guide knowledge, mis-represented ‘city’ of Memphis and terrible lunch mean that I couldn’t give this tour any more than a 3-star rating so as to advise others looking to book.

Great tour!!
We had so little time but tour guide Moni R. gave us the best experience, she and the private driver took us all over Cairo and we were able to visit Saqqara, Pyramids of Giza with camel tour, Khan el-Khalili, the two Egyptian Museums and visit some other cultural places, we loved it. They were very kind and helpful.

Nous avons apprécié...
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette visite, nous avons visité Saqqara, Dahshour et Memphis. Nous avons eu l'occasion d'aller à l'intérieur des pyramides, ce qui était une expérience incroyable. Notre guide, Annan était très sympathique et compétent. Elle nous a tout raconté des endroits que nous avons visités, ainsi que des faits intéressants sur l'Egypte. Elle nous a emmenés pour un authentique barbecue égyptien sur un toit-terrasse avec vue sur les pyramides de Gizeh. Nous avons voyagé dans une voiture climatisée entre les attractions, et avons été régulièrement fournis avec de l'eau glacée. Ce fut une journée brillante, et nous recommandons vivement cette visite. Merci Annan d'avoir rendu l'expérience si agréable.

Un voyage à ne pas manquer
Ce voyage n'est pas aussi populaire que les pyramides de Gizeh, mais vous devriez certainement le prendre si vous voulez voir plus d'histoire des pyramides. Le voyage l'a offert plus que ce à quoi je m'attendais. Différentes histoires et vues fantastiques. Beaucoup moins fréquenté. Par exemple, j'ai exploré l'intérieur de la pyramide coudée à peu près seul et l'expérience a été incroyable quand personne n'était là. Mon guide Mina et mon chauffeur Ahmed (Moza) est une super équipe tout au long du voyage. Très ponctuel dans les temps et très flexible. Ils ont offert des logements pour mes demandes. Mina était certainement l'un des meilleurs guides parmi les six tours que j'ai eu en Égypte. Très sympathique et bien informé. Explique l'histoire et la culture avec beaucoup de détails. Partagé beaucoup d'histoires et d'expériences intéressantes. Il m'a aidé à mieux comprendre la culture et l'histoire égyptiennes, ce qui me donne envie de revenir. Merci Mina et Ahmed !

Absolutely amazing private tour of the first and the original pyramids site, with many more things to see and places to go
We went on this tour, myself and my husband, with Abraham and a driver. We were not expecting this private tour, we thought it would be a group tour, so this was a total bonus and surprise!
We first went to Dashur, and I went into the red pyramid.
It was about 50 steps up to the entrance, which wasn't too bad (and for me being an older asthmatic lady too😅)
It was a gradual dissent of 140 wooden step bars, where you have to step on the edge of, and go backwards holding on to wooden rails stooping down, it was quite wide enough for two people, quite a bit easier than the great pyramid's descent.
Once at the bottom, there was a wide room with a triangular roof, we were accompanied by a tiny bat or two, (the red pyramid is also called bat pyramid)
There were also more stairs to go up, these were solid wooden ones to see something else, but I didn't go as I was quite happy with what I had seen.
You could even see who had discovered the pyramids, British archaeologists, and the date they had written, which I have photographed.
There were only four other people that went behind me, so hardly anybody at all.
Seeing these sites for me was astounding and awe inspiring!
These pyramids are world heritage site protected and of a major importance in Egypt's history and the first pyramids to be built, even before the great pyramid. We saw the Bent pyramid and the black pyramid as we were passing by in the car
Ibrahim and our driver took us to the town of Memphis, originally called Mem, where we visited a museum that housed a giant statue of Rameses II and many other interesting artifacts, mostly outdoors, including a giant sphinx.
Finally we visited a lovely restaurant where we were served pasta soup with pitta breads and six dips and sauces, chicken breast from a kebab stick, that we had requested, with rice and home made chips and finally a slice of melon, totally delicious 😋
Finally, after our beautiful meal, were driven back to the doorstep of our hotel
Ibrahim was a conscientious, honest, safety driven, informative and all round amazing guide🤩
Our driver got us everywhere safely and in comfort, and was just the best driver we could have asked for!
We asked that the air conditioning be switched on when we were too hot from climbing too much, and also for some water, when we stupidly forgot to bring some. Both guys gladly obliged at all the requests and questions were all answered to more than our satisfaction.
I can highly recommend Ibraham and his company GEM for all your private tours and to be your guide.

Great trip with deep discussion
Amazing trip we had with Ali and Muhammad. Ali has a deep knowledge of history and it is great to have a discussion with him on the topics. I highly recommend it!
