We thoroughly enjoyed our day tour to Saqqara, Memphis and the Giza Pyramids. Hammad was an excellent guide - he was very knowledgeable and informative but was always conscious to let you have your own time and space to explore all the sites at your leisure. Meanwhile, Abdullah made sure we got everywhere on time and in comfort despite the chaotic roads and, between them, we always felt very well looked after with a good sprinkling of humour. All in all, would highly recommend!

We had a truly incredible experience exploring Egypt’s top highlights, including the Giza Pyramids, the Grand Egyptian Museum, and Alexandria. Everything about the trip was well-organized and exceeded my expectations. Visiting the Giza Pyramids was a lifelong dream, and seeing them up close was absolutely breathtaking. The Sphinx was just as impressive, and the whole area is full of history and wonder. The Grand Egyptian Museum was another highlight of the trip. The architecture is stunning, and the collection of artifacts is simply world-class. It’s a must-see for anyone visiting Egypt. Alexandria was the perfect addition to the journey. The coastal views, relaxing atmosphere, and historical charm made it a unique and enjoyable experience. A special thanks to our guide, Hamad, who made the trip even more memorable. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Egypt’s history. He explained everything in a clear and engaging way and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt. With a guide like Hamad, you’re guaranteed to have an unforgettable experience!

We spent the touring Memphis, Sakkara and the Giza pyramids with Mr. Egypt. What a phenomenal experience. Not only did we learn a lot of history but he was friendly and made us feel very comfortable. We had a great traditional Egyptian lunch and got to ride a camel. We were never rushed and were able to do things on our own time. It couldn’t have been a more perfect day. I completely recommend Mr. Egypt to anyone who wants an authentic tour.

Today was absolutely INCREDIBLE. Hamed was amazing genuinely nice and very knowledgable guy, he took us to Saqqara Pyramids first before the crowds so we could see inside the tomb there as that closed as midday. The lunch included was very generous so we definitely stacked up on energy for the afternoon at the Giza pyramids. None of it was rushed and Hamed took the time to explain everything in great detail. Very fun day and a great way to wrap up our trip of Egypt. Would 100% recommend!!

It’s an experience to remember for the rest of my life. Camel ride was super fun, be able to touch the stones of the pyramid it’s like touching human history. Food was delicious. The Gide Hamed is very kind, knowledgeable and fun. I’ll definitely be back!
