Can't be missed tour while in Egypt! - Trip Egypt did a fenominal job arranging this last minute tour to the unmissable Pyramids in Dahshur and Saqqara. Memphis city was also a great visit. This tour was also made interesting and fun because of our tour guide, Sayad who was the most knowledgable and well spoken in English in the two weeks we were in Egypt.

Good, not optimal - Ahmed is the guide who touched me, very friendly and polite, his Spanish is not perfect, it is allowed to be understood, I do not give 5 points because according to what he published were 9 hrs, only 6 approx, were not on the tour the papyrus factory and the specie shop (between two little more than 1 hour) was missing the place where the mummification was done. Summary if you have Ahmed is an attentive and simple young man, but at the beginning of the journey it would be better to list the places to go, to avoid inconvenience, one thing I give you 10 points is that you take wonderful photos and strategic points to make them.
