Great Experience
We only had a short time in Egypt and this was an excellent tour that allowed us to see not only the famous Giza pyramids but also the sights at Saqqara and Dashur in a single day. Our guide Hussam was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and spoke excellent English. He provided great context for the sights and took some excellent pictures. This was one of the best tours I’ve booked in my travels and recommend it to everyone.

A great day trip to see many pyramids South of Cairo.
We had an excellent trip. Our driver and guide picked us up on time from the Giza Hotel, and then we headed down to Saqqara first, next on to Dahshur, and finally Giza. Our guide was Hussam and he was very friendly and knowledgeable at all the sites. Because we had a guide with us we also felt 'protected' from other would-be guides and vendors. It's well worth the money to pay for the full package in my opinion.

Drie piramidesites op één dag
Onze gids, Abeer, sms'te ons een dag voor de tour om de pick-up te regelen. Ze stelde voor om vroeg om 7 uur te beginnen: 20 en we zijn blij dat we het gedaan hebben.
Het bleek een privé tour voor ons tweeën. De chauffeur kwam op tijd, reed voorzichtig en droeg altijd een glimlach. Abeer sprak duidelijk Engels en legde goed uit, en ze was erg vriendelijk en attent.
Het was rustig toen we voor het eerst aankwamen in Saqqara. Staande op het open hof voor de Step Pyramid, de rust was onvergetelijk. We bezochten ook de prachtige graven van Unas en Teti.
Vervolgens bij Dashur hadden we de kans om naar binnen te gaan in de Bent Pyramid en de Red Pyramid, beide inbegrepen in het ticket. De eerste was een heel eind naar beneden (~ 80 meter) en we deden maar een heel klein stukje. Dat laatste was relatief makkelijk en helemaal niet druk. We konden lopen en waarderen de kamer in ons eigen tempo. Als je tussen alle piramides door naar binnen wilt, dan is de Rode Piramide de juiste.
Het plateau van Gizeh in de middag was ook minder druk. We stopten eerst bij Panorama voor een kameelrit. Ons pakket bevatte het niet, dus we betaalden ter plaatse EGP 1000 plus fooien per persoon. De rit was vrij kort maar de man ging all in om foto's te maken voor ons. Daarna brachten we wat tijd door rond Khufu’s Piramide en de Spinx.
Het was ongeveer 15.00 uur toen we alle drie de piramide sites af hadden (gelukkig stopten we bij een supermarkt om wat drankjes en snacks te kopen). Drie winkelmogelijkheden - papyrus, kruiden en wierook - werden daarna aangeboden. Ze waren optioneel en het was onze eigen beslissing om de papyruswinkel te bezoeken.
Al met al hebben we genoten van onze dag veel en kon het niet meer aanraden!

Fantastic start to our trip!
We throughly enjoyed this trip! Niveen was our tour guide and we got along really well with her. She offered to take pictures of us, even gave us so much information regarding everything we went to. And we had a lot of fun conversations with her. A lot of fun for the both of us to kickstart our Egypt trip

BEST tour ever
This is the best tour I’ve ever done. Abeer gave me such a personal experience and was so knowledgeable about everything egyptian history. We explored the Saqqara pyramids, Dashshur and then ended the day off at the great pyramids and the sphinx. She made the information so interesting and fun - I learned so much and was consistently shocked. The day started off at 7am and we ended off at 5pm but it was so worth it. Ahmed, our private driver, was so kind and is an excellent driver in the Egypt traffic. He consistently offered water and snacks and was so friendly the entire time - I truly felt so safe with Abeer and Ahmed. This is genuinely the best tour I’ve ever done and even after my tour, Abeer has checked on me as I am a female solo traveller in Egypt alone. I would 100% recommend Abeer and Ahmed for their next tour in Egypt!!

Wonderful and captivating tour experience
We could not be more grateful to have made the most of our short stay in Egypt thanks to lbrahim. He built a perfect itinerary for us and thanks to his wise management, we beat queues and visited as many places as we could in a day. His knowledge and kindness made this tour a wonderful, captivating and enjoyable experience for a dad and teenage daughter. Forgot to tell if you want the best shots of your visit, no one better than Ibrahim. I have no doubts in recommending Ibrahim in your plans to visit Egypt.

An outstanding tour!
I had the most wonderful tour with my tour guide Toka, who was absolutely brilliant. The tour was simply perfect: no waiting in lines at all, good car, friendly and professional guide and driver, amazing lunch location. This tour is a real example of a truly 5-star experience, there is simply nothing not to be happy about it. I highly recommend!

Crystals in the desert
We met a great man, Ibrahim is not a common person. His energy and personality are rare to find, as rare are pure crystals in the sand of the desert.
His life is a gift to the world, so take the chance to spend time with him. Of course we had an amazing tour in astonishing sites.

Cool and funny guide. Cool and enriching pyramid history
The tour is a wonderful introduction to the evolution of the building of the pyramids from the step pyramids of saqarra to the smooth side pyramids we know and love today. Mostafa is a cool and funny tour guide. Aside from a rich knowledge of the pyramid history, he could make everyone feel safe and entertained. It is a whole day affair so be ready. You have the option to actually go inside the pyramids but only the one in saqarra i think is worth it. This tour is worth it.

Amazing
This journey is much better than we could ever expected before. I was looking forward seeing the evolution building history of real pyramid. Therefore, a good guide is important. He must know the background well and he also needs to really love this history. Luckily we had Ibrahim Allam to be our guide. He knows each pyramid so well. Importantly, he also has his own thinking and opinions, this is very valuable and interesting. We really had a wonderful day together with Ibrahim. Strongly recommend to everyone.
