Mona was personable and knowledgeable. The driver was very pleasant and helpful. Of our 3 tours on our own before joining our larger group tour; the guide and driver were the best. The NMEC is a wonderful flavor of Egypt. The felucca ride was enjoyable. This would have been 5 stars if there hadn't been a stop at an essence or oil hop, which was actually a pushy sales pitch rather than a learning experience.

He has patience, he knows secret places where there are almost no tourist, his narrating skills are very good. To make narrating more interesting, he asks before every story, why, when, and how... Every sentence he finishes brings a thrill up the spine. His guide is highly advisable and it's a honor for us to have him as our tourist guide. He made our visit a memory to be remembered for long.

I specifically booked a flight with a 21 hour layover in Cairo so that I could see the pyramids however I got so much more! For an additional cost I was able to go inside of the Great Pyramid, see the solar boat, and go on a camel ride. The Egyptian Museum was full of so many artifacts I coulda stayed there for hours.

I had an excellent time with Ansary and Ahmed touring around some of Egypt's most spectacular locations. They picked me up from the airport nice and early and there began the tour! Ansary was incredibly knowledgable and conveyed a ton of information in our short time! It was the best solo layover tour I could have asked for! Everything was easy and the guys were so kind and knowledgable. Will definitely book again if I'm in the area!
