Top tour with many interesting stories about the pyramids and kings.
The successful day began with a punctual taxi driver who took us to the meeting point with the tour guide. It quickly became clear that he not only spoke excellent German but also had a perfect command of Egyptian history. The day was perfectly planned, and the booked activities were executed optimally with a lot of humor and thus a lot of fun. Highly recommendable!
We really enjoyed the day trip, and Adel was a fantastic guide.
Satisfactory tour overall as it faithfully respects the purchased program. Both the guide and the driver were helpful and professional. In addition, they managed to improvise benissssssimo a surprise birthday cake for my wife, on April 25, 2026. Thanks for everything. A++++++++++++++++++
Our day with Tony was great. More than a tour guide he is an Egyptologist with a sense of humour which meant we learned a lot in an easy way. Tony was happy to oblige any requests and gave us plenty of time to take photos and was great at pointing out some hidden gems at the museum. Mohamed was a pleasant and patient driver. We would highly recommend this tour.
Esraa Shaaban is an excellent guide. Our driver was excellent. He made sure we reached our destinations safe and sound without incident. Esraa shared a great deal of historical knowledge with the group of ladies and answered all of our questions every step of the way. She prepared us for what to expect at each location. We had a great panoramic view of the pyramids and I got a chance to enjoy a camel ride along the way. We visited the Valley Temple of Khafre. We spent a good amount of time looking at the Sphinx and taking pictures at each stop. We saw how papyrus is made, took lunch to go so we could spend more time visiting the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities and walk around and shop in Khan el-Khalili. I was surprised at how some of the merchants would say all kinds of funny things to get your attention. They were respectful and funny at the same time. I appreciated the time and care Esraa took to make sure we didn’t miss any important details at each stop. Visiting the old Egyptian museum felt like we were visiting an archival library. Having a film degree, I could see major films and documentaries capturing the beauty and essence of the place. I enjoyed the camel ride around along the pyramids. I wished I would have booked a longer ride. Seeing the pyramids up close and going inside the Great Pyramid was an interesting experience. You’re walking upright at the entrance and by the time you’re within the pyramid, you’re bending forward almost in a bear crawl. It is hot and the climbing feels steep and walls are tight but well lit. It opens up to a space with a little circulation. The experience just left me silent thinking about the history and the fact that the modern world is being built around this historical site while leaving it well preserved is commendable. It is our history and should not be lost or forgotten. Standing by the pyramids made me feel grounded as well as empathetic to the ancestors who lived, worked, and created families at that time. Never in their wildest dreams could they have pictured where Egypt is today—the world really. I was a dream come true for me and I’m so glad I got to experience it with a cool group of ladies and a very knowledgeable guide who knew her history. It felt almost like a really nice girl’s day trip.

Germeen was very friendly, informative and answered all my questions. Thanks for the amazing experience, wish I had more time in Cairo!!
