Cairo, a dream day
We spent a wonderful day in Cairo with our guide Beshoy and our driver whose name I forgot 😔.
Very interesting and rewarding excursion.
He captivated us with clear information, anecdotes, out of his knowledge about Egypt which seems unlimited. Very good contact with children. He adapted the tour according to the attendance and heat.
We started the visit of the pyramids around 9:40 am with possibility to take a camel ride (I recommend the view is spectacular, souvenir photos in passing), several strategic stops on the site to take the okus beautiful photos. We then went to a papyrus shop (explanations, tea tasting, possibility to buy without any forcing!).
We then ate at a local restaurant which was very good and varied. We headed to the great museum (magnificent complete tour, Beshoy us to tell the essentials of the history of Egypt which is so complex).
We had a little time left since the visit to the souk did not
Attracted no more than that, being up since 4am children and we were H.S, we made a small detour through the center of Cairo by car to reach the airport.
The excursion ended around 6:00 p.m. Return to the hotel around 11pm. It was just grand.
We highly recommend this guide and agency who are really friendly, available and professional. they made us want to come back to Egypt.
The transfers and flights went very well also.
Very nice excursion.

An incredibly great day in Cairo that is better not to organize
This trip is fully recommended.
Not quite cheap, but worth every penny. Transfer from the hotel to the airport and back by an incredibly nice driver. Flight time at 8:30 am very pleasant. In Cairo a driver and a guide were waiting for me, both were just great. The knowledge of the guide was enormous and he was also able to impart it incredibly well.
The day was filled and exhausting, but that's all you can get out of a short trip.
Thanks again for the great care

A perfect experience
A perfect experience!
We booked a day trip from Hurghada to Cairo via Memnon Reisen at short notice the afternoon before.
Memnon Reisen has organized the day completely individually for the five of us:
Transfer from the hotel in Soma Bay to Hurghada airport and back, a day in Cairo with driver and German speaking tour guide Jakob, who studied German and Egyptology and organized our day perfectly. First a short walk through Cairo's oldest neighbourhood, then the Giza pyramids.
We had instant access everywhere with no waiting times and informative explanations.
We could watch everything in peace. A note: At the pyramids we took a horse-drawn carriage trip to the plateau.
The horses were in poor condition, the carriages could hardly pull up the mountain anymore, they have no shade, no water and have significant pain on their legs.
Please refrain from this program item for animal welfare reasons.
After an organized lunch we went to the new Egyptian museum.
Jakob always explained the most important things to us and then gave us time to visit individually.
Afterwards we spontaneously booked a one-hour Nile cruise, just the 6 of us on a boat and discovered the most beautiful sections of Cairo's promenade from the water. Afterwards we made a small city tour to the garbage quarter and then to the inhabitants of the city of the dead.
Then return to Hurghada.
Memnon Reisen and Jakob organized a super great day for us and we really got an overwhelming impression of the city and the history.
Thank you Jakob!

Unforgettable experience
Excellent service, from A to Z everything Perfectly planned. If you want the best guide in Cairo then ask for Magdy Ghali, he knows everything and is a very great person. We were in good hands with him. Big thanks also to Ahmed Maher who planned the trip for us.

Cairo/Luxor Private Tour
We greatly enjoyed our private excursion to Cairo for the day. Everything was well organized, the drivers, our guide Maria who was excellent. We then booked an excursion to Luxor, everything was perfect also with our equally excellent Akram guide. I highly recommend private excursions, tours are complete and well explained

Unforgettable experience
We made a trip by plane to the pyramids as a couple and can absolutely recommend this trip. We had our own German-speaking guide which is still Egyptologist. An unforgettable experience. Great organization, everything worked (transfer, flight, lunch).

Perfectly organized and individually designed – clear recommendation
The tour from Hurghada to Cairo was overall really successful and well organized. The hotel pickup was mega on time and the airport pickup worked smoothly as well. Our guide was an Egyptologist and knew his way around, so we got a lot of exciting background information. He has answered each of our questions in detail and has always responded to our wishes. It was particularly positive that the tour seemed individually planned and not just a standard program was unwound. We even did a short tour on the Nile. The pyramids and the museum were impressive and the care significantly enhanced the whole thing. We would do the tour again at any time and can clearly recommend it.

Successful day trip to Cairo with a TOP guide
Day Trip by Flight to Cairo :
We had one for us for wonderful, super organized day in Cairo. ****
Our guide Magdy and his driver Yussef have made the pyramids a unique experience for us. Magdy showed us the Egyptian history and culture in the New Egyptian Museum. He had answers to all our questions throughout the day for us.
Another highlight was the bazaar for us, which Magdy also showed us.
Thank you so much for that.
By the way, that food, typically Egyptian, also tasted very good to us.

Very good guidance
Today we experienced very good city tour in Cairo as a family with Jakob as a guide. Starting with phyramids, a visit to the Egyptian Museum, a relaxed Nill ride and a short visit to the bazaar, everything was there to get to know diverse city. Everything was well organized and responded to our wishes!
