Outstanding Private Tour of Cairo, the Pyramids & Grand Egyptian Museum!

Outstanding Private Tour of Cairo, the Pyramids & Grand Egyptian Museum! I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Scott on my private tour of Cairo, the Pyramids, and the Grand Egyptian Museum. From beginning to end, Scott was punctual, courteous, professional, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly accommodating. He arrived on time and made sure everything throughout the day went smoothly. I never felt rushed, and I appreciated being able to enjoy each location at a comfortable pace. Scott was attentive to what I wanted to see and made the entire experience feel personalized rather than like a typical scheduled tour. Visiting the Pyramids of Giza was already a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but having a knowledgeable and dependable guide made it even more memorable. The Grand Egyptian Museum was equally impressive, and Scott helped make navigating such an extraordinary amount of Egyptian history enjoyable and stress-free. What impressed me most was Scott's professionalism and genuine hospitality. Traveling in another country can sometimes feel overwhelming, but I felt comfortable, safe, and well taken care of throughout the entire day. He answered questions, offered helpful recommendations, and made sure I had an enjoyable experience from start to finish. If you are visiting Egypt and considering a private tour of Cairo, the pyramids, or the Grand Egyptian Museum, I highly recommend Scott! He exceeded my expectations and contributed greatly to making my visit to Egypt so special. Thank you, Scott, for your kindness, professionalism, and outstanding service. This was truly an unforgettable experience, and I would absolutely book with you again! 🇪🇬❤️ 10/10 — Highly recommended!

Great experience

Excellent experience with Paul and Dena. I added on the photography option also which was good fun. I also added visiting inside the Great Pyramid, which I thought was worth it. Very detailed explanations and very informative.

Great trip - Part 1 - Day 1

Part 1 - day 1 - excellent service from Paul, we got picked up at airport before immigration and whisked through all the formalities and was in the hotel in no time . Picked up this morning at 8am for the pyramids and John (guide) and Paul were brilliant we toured the pyramids took a camel ride and then off for lunch. Great food - fresh cooked chicken and kebabs etc - next was the Grand Egyptian Museum - John our guide was brilliant just the right level of information at the right pace (you could spend 2 days just reading about the artefacts) - now back in hotel - both were friendly - safe driving and nice conversation - would highly recommend - off on a Nile cruise tonight and another day tour tomorrow - part 2 (both Brits could not change location from USA)

Wonderful day

This day stands out to me as one of the best experiences I had in my time in Egypt. I had the tour on my own, with just the guide and I, and I was a little nervous about that beforehand. However, I had the most wonderful day - not just because of the beauty of discovering ancient Egypt - but also because of my guide, Mario Nagy, who was so friendly, insightful and overall pleasant company. Throughout the day, I had a lot of freedom to decide what I would, and wouldn’t, like to do. Mario let me decide so that I would have the best experience. For example, I did not want to go on a camel ride, which I just expressed, and we just continued the tour without it. Later in the day - while we were still at the Pyramids - I asked if we could grab an iced coffee at one of the cafés on the site. “Of course we can” was the answer, and we enjoyed a coffee with no stress and good chat - and of course, with the stunning view of the Pyramids. As a bonus, Mario provided me with a lot of great photos that he took throughout the day, that I have as a memory of an absolutely wonderful experience in Egypt. I would fully recommend this service to anyone. Sincerely, a woman who went on her own.

The Great tour for the Great Pyramids and GEM

Amazing experience from start to finish! Everything was perfectly organized, and the service was outstanding. The tour of the Giza Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum was very informative and well-planned. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole day enjoyable while ensuring we didn’t miss any important details. What made the experience even better was the personal touch, especially helping us take great photos and create unforgettable memories. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Egypt
