The tour was OK. However, the guide could have given more insights about the pyramids. A thing I didn't appreciate much was that the guide called 2 shops "papyro museum" and "oils/parfums museum". It's a tourist trap, especially in the "oils museum", where there was 0 explanation on how the parfums are done. It was literally just a shop. Look, I have bought a papyrus and a parfum, but I wish I was told the truth.
We were four of us - my wife, my 2 daughters aged 8 and 11 and myself and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Magdy was brilliant - he was there when we needed him but also gave us our space and enjoy the sights at our pace. I would highly recommend Maddy! Thanks for making it a memorable trip for us!
Mohammed was an amazing guide and very personable! He tailored pur tour to our time constraints and desires (and walking pace). He respected pur requests to not do some things, which has been very refreshing. He has great conversation in perfect English and we couldn't have wished for a better experience to thr pyramids! Our tour was private and he picked us up at the hotel. Very communicative as well before the tour began. 10/10
Great tour of the Pyramids and Sphinx with Maddy Tours. Our Guide Ahmed was excellent and very informative as well as taking great photos. No pressure to do anything extra you don't want to, but you are given the options available. We also got to go inside the tomb of Meresankh III, then a camel ride for all the family at the panoramic view point overlooking the pyramids, all included in the price (except the usual tips of course!). You have the option to go inside the Great pyramid and the other smaller ones if you want (for an extra charge, the most expensive being Khufu about 400 EGP). All
