The trip was just perfect and very mesmerizing. The guide, Mr. Maged was very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. The pyramids and the civilization museum were the main highlights and though it was long but it was not tiring at all. The experience in all i would say was a blast and having such a wonderful guide made it even better and made us fall in love with Egypt even more.

Best Guide in Egypt! Maged has a high passion for his work and the Egyptian culture and tells the stories of the artifacts and sites in a very captivating style. He also always knew a place or artifact overlooked by other guides and has a huge knowledge about all of it. He made sure we could see all we wanted for a very fair price. He even helped us get our money back after we got scammed by unlicensed guides on the first day. Maged is a very lovely, nice, helpful, kind and good hearted man! We did several tours with him: Egyptian museum, day trip to Alexandria, coptic Kairo, Memphis and Sakkara and more. He took lots of lovely pictures for us and always had something to tell about any piece we wanted to know about. He also taught us to read hieroglyphics! Gem explore is the best address for exploring Egypt in a safe and entertaining way! We would choose them again for any activities in Egypt! 10/5 stars! Really safes our holiday and gave us back the trust in Egyptian people.
