Great touring professionalism and love for the object
Great guide we learned so much about the history and culture!
Unbelievable experience, Ayman was awesome. From the places he took us to the information he carried us, everything was amazing.
I really enjoyed the tour. I learned a lot about ancient Egypt and modern culture.
Ayman, our tour guide, has deep knowledge of Egyptian history as well as of the contemporary political and economic matters of the country. He has exceptional communication skills, he is very polite and helpful and speaks fluent Greek. It's not an exagerration to call him Egypt's gem! Highly recommended!
I highly recommend our tour guide, Ayman, he was a true highlight during our trip to Egypt! He speaks perfect Greek and has deep knowledge of the ancient Egyptian history and civilisation. His guided tours were very interesting and at the same time easy to comprehend even without any prior knowledge. He shared with us insightful information not only about the past but also about the current political and social environment in Egypt. His professional yet very friendly manner and his sense of humour made our trip a truly memorable experience! I would definitely book him again on one of my future tours.
The tour guide was really kind and helpful. His knowledge, not only of ancient Egypt but also of contemporary social and political matters in Egypt, is very deep and insightful. It really gives a very authentic and vivid impression of what Egypt is and used to be. I highly recommend him!
Our guide Ayman, very explanatory, full of positive energy and honest!
