Excellent guide and great tour
I wasn’t very involved in booking this excursion but it was brilliant. Our guide, Sabry, was friendly, very knowledgeable, took some excellent photos and just knew how to make the most of a potentially big day for tourists without it becoming exhausting or overwhelming. The pick up and drop off were both easy and on time, and we packed a huge amount in - visiting the Giza panoramic viewpoint by camel, the Pyramids (including going inside), the Sphinx, lunch, Memphis and Saqqara within about 7 hours. Having a private guide made it so much more informative than relying on a guidebook and having the driver meant we were as comfortable as possible in Egypt in 40°C! Thank you to Sabry for a fantastic day which really did deliver on everything we could have hoped for and more.

Our guide Heba was...
Our guide Heba was friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. We had to skip the last part due to heat. Lunch was streetfood falafel sandwiches which we ate in the car but it was tasty.

Heba was a great tour guide! Took great pictures and showed us really cool areas that most people skip over.

Amazing tour!!
Hend’s tour of the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Saqqara was excellent. The tour was everything I had dreamed of doing to experience Ancient Egypt. Hend told us the history in a way that was like listening to a story. She was also very kind and considerate. She knew great locations for photos. It was a lovely day. I highly recommend Hend as a tour guide.

Incredibly thorough, personalized tour of the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and more
We had the best time with our guide Hend on the Egypt Tailor Made day tour of the Giza Pyramids, Memphis, and Saqqara! The whole day went so smoothly and both Hend and our driver were so professional. We hit all of the high points and also learned a lot about history that we wouldn’t have known to ask about. Hend thought of everything and knew all of the best spots to take photos. I recommend very highly!

A totally amazing experience
Totally mind blowing experience. Sabri was excellent and extremely knowledgeable. He paid extra attention to bring the history to life , through stories , showcasing everything its significance in civilisation and its relevance today . His knowledge was deep but was effortless in his delivery making it easier and entertaining to understand what we were seeing He spoke several languages too including Italian and English .
The Pyramids and the GEM are a must , as is Saqqarah - where our journey began given us access to tombs that the every day tourists would bypass then ending with a fascinating tour of old Cairo .
Nothing was a problem. With a private driver and an expert guide in Sabri our visit to Cairo ( which topped and tailed a fascinating Nile Cruise - another must ) was truly inspiring and remarkable. Very highly recommend!

A wonderful day with an expert
We had a wonderful day with Mr Sabry and Mohamed the driver. His knowledge of the subject is phenomenal and he keeps up with all the most recent developments. He uses his knowledge to give such clear and informative explanations. We cannot recommend him more highly.

A great itinerary made even better with an excellent guide
Manar, our guide, was absolutely outstanding. She was incredibly knowledgeable and generously shared her insights throughout the drive, bringing every place to life with context and stories. She was warm and accommodating, always making sure we were comfortable. She was gentle and thoughtful with my 11-year-old son. We would highly recommend her, especially for families traveling with children.

Amazing intro to Egypt!
We used Tailor Made Tours for three different excursions during our trip to Cairo. Hend was our fantastic guide for all three days. First off, communication was super easy with the company via Whatsapp, and they were accommodating to tailor the tour to what we wanted to see. Day 1 we went for a half day tour of the GEM where Hend was instrumental in explaining ancient Egyptian history. We wanted to stay extra hours at the end of the tour which wasn't a problem and she even tried to have the driver stay and wait for us (we declined since we didn't know when we'd leave)! Day 2 we took the trip that this review is posted under for Giza pyramids, Saqqara, and Memphis. She made great recommendations on which extra things were worth paying for vs not based on our interests. Day 3 was a half day tour of the citadel/Mohammed Ali mosque, 2 Coptic churches, synagogue Ben Ezra, and the NCEM. Again her explanations were instrumental in gaining a deeper understanding of Egypt and Egyptian history. She was also super friendly, answered all our questions even about modern life in Egypt, and never pushed any additional sights (ie no stops at tourist traps unless you want to go buy a rug or what not). We had two different drivers and they were excellent (in sharp contrast to an Uber driver where I thought we might all die). I used this company in 2014 and came back because they were excellent then and excellent now. Definitely recommend going with them!

Perfect tour of the pyramids, the sphinx and Memphis - Very knowledgeable guide!
Wonderful tour with a very experienced guide across the pyramids and the sphinx, as well as Memphis. Sabry had an answer to all my questions and was incredibly kind and organized. Pick up at 7am was perfect timing to avoid the crowds. Truly amazing experience!
