We had a wonderful day tour visiting pyramids and Memphis. Our guide, Amr Aswany, was truly exceptional. He was kind, friendly, and knowledgeable, and he made the entire experience both enjoyable and informative. He was always helpful and patient, answering all our questions with a smile. In a word, he felt less like a guide and more like a friend or a good neighbour. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a memorable and personal tour experience.
Our guide was excellent, he was knowledgeable and shared a lot of information about Egyptian culture and history. The driver was also great. We saw all the highlights, no parfum shop stops, we were not interested in shopping. We wanted to see the sights and hear about the history, which is exactly what we got. We really enjoyed our day and recommend this tour

It was funny she helped us when we needed Niveen was really nice and funny I loved this market thanks you so much see you again I hope
It was a great experience for me. I want to thank the activity guide, Neveen, for making the trip an extraordinary time. At all times he explained to me each of the places we were, their history and the value of Egyptian treasures. I highly recommend the tour and would take it again on my next visit to Cairo.
Very good tour. Amir, despite of being young, is very prepared and ready to answer questions. Our driver was Rafi (i hope i spell it correctly) and he drove very safely and always ready to bring us to the various locations I highly recommend this tour Just an advice to future travellers: leave the bend pyramid at the end because its the toughest one to do. So, if the Red Pyramid gives you problems, better not to go inside the Bent. I managed to go inside all pyramids, it is a lovely experience. But trust me, Bent pyramid ia tough so begter to leave it at the very end.
This was an awesome tour. Spending the day learning about the sites with Amir was an honor. He was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. Had a great day with him. Couldn’t recommend more!
Bilal was a young, friendly, and informative tour guide. We had a nice experience learning new things about pyramids and Pharaohs. He didn't push us to do shopping after the tour. The driver was excellent, careful, and on time.
We have a fantastic few days with Amir, he is so warm and friendly, his knowledge of the area and history was 5 stars. We would highly recommend him as your tour guide. Next time we are in Cairo we will be requesting him qgain.
That was wonderful experience! Very fulfilling day in Memphis and Saqqara. Thanks Adam the guide for all explanations, photos and help and Khaled the driver for safe and comfortable driving. Definitely recommend Horizon Travel. They know their job.
