BRILLIANT, MUST-DO TOUR
Published on Nov, 2024
We had the most incredible visit thanks to Tarek. He is amazing! A kind, thoughtful, and professional tour guide. He took incredible care of us. I will go back and definitely visit more of Cairo with him.
Ideal choice
Published on Oct, 2022
Ismail Mahmoud is what I call the perfect guide. Accompanied by a very experienced driver we had an amazing tour day to the pyramids of Giza, Dashur and so on. Exceptional service, always at the right spot, emotional intelligence, lots of information on sights but never too much in order to get tired. Would definitely recommend, hands down.
Interesting mix of locations for pyramids
Published on Sep, 2022
Took the base tour where I had to pay my own way for entry fees. The tour commenced on time with our guide Mazen. The plan was to make our way to Dahshur first to avoid the morning crowds at Giza. However, unfortunately the car broke down 30 mins into the trip and left us in the middle of nowhere waiting for a fix. The company responded quickly assigning a new driver (Zaber) and got us going again after a 45min wait. The company owner apologised and offered us a complimentary camel ride for when we would reach Giza which we accepted. The tour from that point on went really well. The pyramids outside of Giza are quite spectacular and without the crowds of Giza are absolutely worth the visit. We also enjoyed Memphis with the large statue of Ramses II and Mazen stopped at a shop to get us some falafel sandwiches which were absolutely delicious. The pace of the tour was perfect. We had one stop at a carpet factory with no pressure or hassling to purchase so we just viewed the process. The pyramids of Giza were the final stop but the camel ride was the highlight which I would highly recommend doing. The young man who led our camels took some great photos so we gave him a small tip for the effort. All in all the tour was really good value and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Mazen also dropped us off at a local falafel place he suggested near our hotel so we could grab another treat. Many thanks to Mazen for his commentary and great photo taking
Fun day with Ehab hoba
Published on Apr, 2022
Awesome day at the pyramids and the other brilliant wonders of Cairo. The lads: Ehab hoba and Abu treka were a lovely pair who lead us around patiently, comfortably and with humor! Highly recommend. Yummy lunch.
Instructive day with Mamdouh Kamal, very knowledgeable guide
Published on Oct, 2021
Excellent tour, very well organized but most of all with a knowledgeable guide, Mamdouh Kamal, who will adapt to your wishes, from focusing on learning or just enjoying the landscape, and a good driver, Shiref, able to avoid Cairo traffic nightmare!
