Overview

The ancient sites around Cairo—Giza, Saqqara, Memphis—sit spread across the desert, a long way to reach and a lot to see in a single day on your own. Get driven privately instead, with an Egyptologist guiding the day and admission sorted at each stop. Visit the Pyramids of Giza, the step-pyramid at Saqqara, and the old capital of Memphis, with hotel pickup, transfers, and lunch handled for you.

Very poor experience as the tour guide that we had and we picked up in Cairo, had NO IDEA what we were doing and where we were going. Also it was the first time he had been a guide in this area and he specialized in antiquity, which is not the case there either. Our driver was phenomenal, but our tour guide had no idea where we were going and his english was VERY poor. Lastly the restaurant that they suggest is literally ripping you off. The mentioned price is 15$ (for a meal that in Cairo costs 5) , and somehow we ended up paying 30$ each. 60$ for 2 people in Egypt is the steal of the centrur

The tour covered all the key sites to see at the pyramids, saqquara and Memphis. We also had a nice lunch and visited an papyrus factory with (overpriced) souvenirs. All in all a good tour, however our tour guide wasn't very talkative. He gave a few highlights at each location and otherwise quiet unless probed for more information. That said, he was very gracious in taking several great photos of my mom and I. He took them with his phone camera of better quality and sent me the files. I really appreciated this.

Seeing the pyramids was great! Tour guide was very experienced and easy to follow. The pickup times were clear and the food was one of the best during our time in Egypt.

I did a trip to Egypt and I get the tour guide Mohamed for 2 days-tour. He was excellent, attentive, has the knowledge about the history of all places I visited, and explained everything in Portuguese! I was lucky, because I am Brazilian! This tour was amazing, has a lot of walking and lots to see, but worth it. Thank you Mohamed for this wonderful and memorable experience ! Highly recommend.

This is such great value for the money! An excellent tour! Seeying the Great pyramids of Giza, statue Sphinx, Sakkara, Dahshur. Absolutely magnificent. Next day the egyptian museum and Khan El Khalil Bazaar.. Ayman was a super guide. he spoke about ancient Egypt with great knowledge. Answered all my questions. I was travelling on my own and didnt expect it to be easy but it was. I didnt feel rushed and had time for myself. Actually seeing the Pyramids and the sphinx was a highlight - made all those years of reading about it come to life! I really appreciated the flexibility Ayman and the compa

El tour comenzó bien, el guía nos recogió en el hotel en un carro muy moderno. El conductor amable. Primero fuimos hasta Memphis, y si bien dimos un recorrido por el coloso, y el guía algo explicó, en comparación con lo que escuchábamos que otros guías contaban sentimos que nuestro guía se quedaba muy corto. Luego fuimos a Saqqara, a la pirámide escalonada. Nuevamente explicaciones muy generales de parte del guía. Si bien en la descripción del tour anuncian que uno va al complejo de Saqqara, realmente es solo a la pirámide escalonada y nada más. El almuerzo fue en un sitio afuera de esa pirámi
