The piramides were great to see. We rode camels and the guide Nasser was super! He told us everithing about the puramides and took a great pictures of us. In the museum he told us everithing about mummification proces and the great kings of the valley. The mummies were great to see. I recommend it!

Première fois aux pyramides en solo, je n’aurais pu rêver meilleure expérience. Mohamed est particulièrement serviable, ponctuel, calme et attentif au confort de ses clients. Je recommande ses services !
