Best tour guide ever

She is so lovely. She reminds me of my aunt and i love her. Helped in every possible way, where to find good spots for pictures, where the prices are better. We had so much fun. Went to the museum, then floating through river Nile, then perfume shop and had lunch in a beautiful restaurant in Giza and lastly were the pyramids. If I'm coming back to Egypt i definitely will search for her. Much love Henna from Nora🫶🏻

Operator response

Dear Nora, What a truly beautiful and heartwarming review! Reading your words brought a huge smile to my face, and knowing I reminded you of your aunt is the highest compliment I could receive. Thank you so much for your "much love" – it means the world to me. I had an absolutely fantastic time exploring with you. From the wonders of the museum to the peaceful sail on the Nile, the delightful perfume shop, a delicious lunch in Giza, and finally, the awe-inspiring pyramids, every moment was a joy. I loved helping you find those perfect photo spots and getting you the best deals – it's all part of making sure you have an unforgettable experience. It was genuinely my pleasure to guide you, and your fun-loving spirit made the day incredibly special. I truly hope our paths cross again in Egypt. When you decide to return, please don't hesitate to reach out! Warmly, Hanan🫶🏻

Trip of a lifetime🏝️🙌👌

One of the most wonderful and unique places on the planet. 🔥 It's was mazing!! 🙌 This was one of my childhood dreams. Definitely must visit at least once in a lifetime. 👌😍 Overall I had a lovely time in Cairo and the Pyramids! I personally booked my trip in May this year through a private person called Dima from one of the shops in Hurghada - Top Four Star Center. Honestly I think the package and the service provided from Hanan our English guide was extremely affordable and professional, definitely was worth it.🙌👌❤️ I'll definitely be back next year for the evening lights show which I missed this year. 🙏☺️🔜

Great trip to Cairo, with the best guide we have ever experienced!

When you go on an organised trip to somewhere new, especially one with lots of history, you want a guide who can make you feel welcome, can inform you well, and share the experience in an engaging way. Hanna, as she called herself, did all of these things with the right balance of wisdom, humour, compassion and intellect for our group. We have been on many organised experiences with lots of different guides and honestly Hanna was the best guide we’ve had. Her warmth and wisdom, coupled with her respect for diversity, her organisational skills and great way with people make her an ideal guide. We very much recommend Hanna to anyone thinking of using a guide. Thank you Hanna for making the experience so unforgettable!

Operator response

Dear Fiona, Reading your review brought a huge smile to my face! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to share your experience. It's incredibly rewarding to know that you felt welcomed, informed, and engaged during our tour. I strive to create a memorable and meaningful experience for every guest, and your words validate that effort. Hearing that you consider me the best guide you've had is truly an honor. I'm passionate about sharing the history and culture of this place, and I'm so glad that my 'balance of wisdom, humour, compassion and intellect' resonated with you. Thank you again for your kind recommendation. I hope to have the pleasure of guiding you or your friends and family again someday. Warm regards, Hanan
