Cairo Tour - Ahmed was great and super friendly. He let us explore at our own pace, allowing us to enter Khufu pyramid as an add on. He was also a great photographer! He also took us for a lovely lunch with fresh meats and fruit juices. The tour was informative and interesting and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The only downside is that we were taken to a perfume shop which caught us off guard - however there wasn’t any pressure to buy.

Only gripe? - It got hot by midday, bring a hat with you. Other than that Ahmed handled everything and navigating through crowd, which was a lifesaver.

Very happy we booked this! - Our guide was knowledgeable he knows a lot and explained things simple so we can understand. Car was clean, Ac worked good, and they gave us cold water which helped me lot because it was super hot. We covered the spots and among all of them I loved the red Pyramid the most.

Day trip to Dahshur, Memphis, and Saqqara - We had a spectacular day visiting Dahshur, Memphis, and Saqqara thanks to our guide Ahmed and his driver, both of whom were extremely friendly and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day. The monuments we visited were truly wonderful, and the lunch included was delicious. Some classic Egyptian hospitality. Thank you to Ahmed. I would strongly recommend this trip to anyone

Wonderful trip with a wonderful team - Ahmed and Islam, his driver, have enabled me and my friend to enjoy Egypt and its special beauty. We not only visited and learned about the Pharaoh’s historical period, but we also had the opportunity to discover the ancestral industry of perfumes ♥️ - one of my passions.

Glad we booked a private tour! - Our guide Ahmed was very knowledgeable and friendly. He accommodated our family’ pace as that was the main reason we opted for private tour. We wanted to take our time and decide how much time to spend at each place without being rushed around. We had a great time!
