1No show!!
I had booked and paid for a guide for Giza Egypt. They confirmed I had a ticket printed from when I left the states. The I've never showed up we tried calling we couldn't get hold of anybody. Tried texting on WhatsApp no reply. My hotel got me another guide. I have to wait over two hours. Lost for visiting Egypt. And it cost me an extra $30 on top of it. 😡
5Great tour
Our tour was coordinated through our hotel. Hosny, our driver, met us at our hotel on time and gave us a warm welcome. The vehicle was new and spacious. We visited Saqqara and the Serapeum, Memphis and the Giza Pyramids. We stopped for lunch at the most delicious Egyptian buffet. Our guide was very knowledgable and answered all our questions. He also helped us take photos. We feel so fortunate that we had Robert as our guide and Hosny as our driver for the day. We were able to hire Hosny again to drive us around the city and take us to a popular market. We hired him again to drive us to the airport.
5We had a fantastic day....
We had a fantastic day. Aya was our tour guide, she was very accommodating, took us to all of the places that were less crowded than the big bus tours. Thank you for a great day
5A memorable and well-organised experience!
My husband and I had a great private tour in Cairo, visiting Saqqara, Memphis, the Green Papyrus Government Outlet (where we were shown how papyrus is made and had the option to purchase some beautiful artwork), the Pyramids of Giza, and finally an Oil and Perfumery Government Outlet (where we enjoyed a free oil-smelling experience - though would probably miss this if we did this again). From the start, Demiana was professional and well-organised, with clear communication before and during the day. She and the driver navigated the roads and crowds smoothly, helping us feel safe and ensuring we made the most of our time at each location. Demiana’s knowledge, enthusiasm, and storytelling were excellent. Her understanding of Egyptian history brought each site to life with insights and details you wouldn’t find in a guidebook. She also went out of her way to make our day comfortable and enjoyable — from pointing out the best photo spots (and taking great photos for us) to choosing a lovely local restaurant for lunch, giving us a taste of Egyptian cuisine. We recommend this tour — a memorable and well-organised experience!
5Full day tour from Cairo to see Giza, pyramids, museum, sphinx
We did a full day tour from Cairo, we saw the pyramids, the sphinx, the museum, we had a lovely lunch and we even managed to fit in a gorgeous boat trip along the River Nile. Our tour guide was called Rasha Yehia Mubarak and she organized everything perfectly from start to finish. Rasha was amazing and showed us everything there is to see. The transport was comfortable for my whole family and Rasha showed us the best that Cairo has to offer. We would definitely recommend Rasha to all our friends and family or to anyone visiting Cairo!

It was an amazing trip. Our tour guides made everything easy and enjoyable for us. They arranged everything from where to eat the best food to where to drink the best coffee to how to take the best photo:)) It was very comfortable and pleasant for us.
