If you need to grasp the full historical context of the Egyptian Pharoahs, and Kings, from the ancient era then please make that reservation with the number one Egyptologist Aly Elsheemy. My wife and I booked this tour with Aly who came to pick us up from our hotel in downtown Cairo. Thank you to Yehia, who expertly and carefully drove us to the museums in Saqqara and Memphis. This tour captures the full scope of the historical facts pertaining to Imhotep, the step pyramid of Djoser, the many tombs that were unearthed, and the ongoing excavations that continue today. You will not be dissapoint
What a brilliant day from start to finish .We were met on time by Aly Elsheemy, our guide and Yehia, our professional driver. At all times they were friendly, courteous, professional & very knowledgeable.If there is anything you want to know about Egypt’s pyramids & history, Aly Elsheemy is your man. In Saqqara we were introduced to the first of many pyramids and tombs . We entered some of the tombs and saw walls covered with beautiful illustrations of daily life and hieroglyphics. We were appreciative of Aly’s knowledge in explaining them. Leaving Saqqara, we went on to Dahshur and was introd
Aly was a fantastic tour guide. Hos knowledge of the pyramids and the way he guided my wife and I through that experience will be an unforgettable time for us both. This tour is well worth it. Ask for Aly and he will not disappoint. Great job, thank you much for making history come alive.
Aly Elsheemy was our excellent guide. Our driver, even though we didn’t get to talk to him, was very good. We were picked up on time from our hotel in Giza and then driven to Saqqara where we were taken around the archeological sites and we went into the Unas pyramid which was amazing inside! We did not enter the Step Pyramid due to the necessary extra cost! We were then taken to a place which showed us how Egyptian rugs (carpets) are made (which was amazing) and then we had the option to buy. We were not pressurised to buy anything. We then visited Dahshur where we entered the amazing Bent py
I used Aly Elsheemy from Egypt in Tours for three trips during my time in Egypt. He guides both small groups and solo travelers to locations in and around Cairo. My trips were the following: • Saqqara – this was the ideal solo/small group tour, capitalizing on his knowledge as an Egyptologist and knowledge/contacts at the site. Normal tours to this site do not cover it in the depth and detail that I was able to enjoy. We were able to get into sites not generally available to the public and also to quickly focus in on the public sites most in line with my interests. • Fayoum/Valley of the Whale
Arrived on time and everything as agreed. Communicated with us perfectly. Felt and experienced 100% reliability and had no concerns. The car was clean and comfortable. Invited us to a private dinner and made personal connections with family, which was the highlight of our trip.
