Overview

There’s more to ancient Egyptian Cairo than the Egyptian Museum and the Giza Pyramids. Go deeper on this door-to-door guided tour to three spectacular ancient sites: Memphis, once the pharaohs’ capital, Saqqara, home to Egypt’s first pyramid, the Pyramid of Djoser, and Dahshur, the less-visited desert site that hosts the Red Pyramid and Bent Pyramid.

Mohamed El Azmerly was an excellent tour guide and planned the whole day for us. This itinerary is well worth it and you get to see and start with the first pyramids in the area. Mohammad was extremely knowledgeable in history, culture and archaeology. He has a great background and education and answered every single question and told us great stories Well worth it!!

We were travelers from Japan. Since no one in our group except me could speak English, arranging interpretation would have been difficult, so we booked only a car and driver. As there was no guide, I studied the necessary information in advance and joined the tour. We had a bit of trouble meeting the driver at the hotel at first, but he was very kind and trustworthy. Thanks to him, our entire family was extremely satisfied and we were able to enjoy a truly wonderful experience.

Great tour with Samir and his driver. Samir contacted me the day before via WhatsApp to confirm the pick up time and location. I didn't want a long tour so I asked them to be back in town at about 1 pm, so you could plan something else in the afternoon/evening. Anyway they can stay with you for longer and Samir can give you all the info you want.

Very good service, they respect the pick up point and the time ,contacting you on the day before, and after that they do everything for you, entering in some places that need some aprovation from militarys (Egypt), giving you very good explanations of what you will visit, the only thing that I didnt like was the arrangement they have with the locals, they let you with some guys for they offering this and that in turn of money. Overall, very good service.

Essential visit to understand the evolution of pyramids. We need to get into Djezer's. And don't miss the colossal statue of Ramses II in Memphis.
