Our day tour to Memphis, Sakkara, Citadel, and Mohamed Ali Mosque was fantastic, perfectly blending ancient wonders and Islamic heritage. Hazim guided us through Memphis and Sakkara, delivering a great experience by explaining the history and significance of temple development—from simple tabletop structures to step pyramids and beyond. Zanaty took over for the Citadel and Mohamed Ali Mosque, explaining the history in a captivating way while directing us to the best photo opportunities—stunning panoramic shots at the Citadel and magical light at the mosque.

We spent a wonderful day on tour with Hazem, our guide. He's a very kind, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable guy! He explained all the history and highlights of the places we visited with great attention to detail. He also took some wonderful photos of us. We were very happy with the day and I recommend everyone to choose him as their guide.

Mahmoud and Omar were great with our young kids and us changing around our itinerary. Greatly appreciated! Mahmoud has a cadence that helps kids pay attention when explaining history.

The experience was amazing!! The history and culture of Egypt goes beyond words. It is a narrative that can rarely be matched. It really takes 7-14 days to encompass everything. You have to start from the Old Egyptian era to the Middle Egyptian era and end with the New Egyptian era. Unfortunately, my trip didn't cover all three eras but to have the opportunity to experience one is breathtaking. My guide Ahmed M. El Gabry was great. Very knowledge, easy to approach and ask questions, and was able to debunk some of the myths associated with the pyramids. Visiting Egypt is not for the faint-heart
