Very happy again!!! - I booked a 2-day private trip from Hurghada to Cairo for myself and my son, all via the internet, especially via WhatsApp.
This was the first time, otherwise I always book on site.
We have been more than delighted, the direct contact with Osman of Memnon Reisen, the driver ( Asaat), and the Egyptologist (Mr Magdi Ghali) were all totally professional and super friendly and very pleasant.
They have fulfilled all our wishes.
We visited everything with enthusiasm, the Egyptologist told us a lot with his great knowledge and went to great lengths to explain the history and culture to us.
The hotel with breakfast in Cairo was personally a luxury hotel, the suite was great, with a view of the pyramids , that we did not expect at this price.
The food at lunch was very tasty and rich.
Free drinks were also plentiful in the car.
The organization and the car itself are also worth 5 stars.
We didn't have to queue anywhere, we had the freedom to determine how long we wanted to stay in one place.
I am relatively discordant about travel, my expectations have been more than exceeded.
I found the price in comparison to other providers very good!
With our travel provider (Coral Trevel), the total package would have cost more than twice as much.
There were no hidden costs.
As a woman with a child, I always felt safe.
I will now book all my trips with Memnon Reisen in the future!
Quality and fair prices stand for this provider.
Can only recommend to everyone!!!

Luxor two days private - The two-day trip from Marsa Alam to Luxor was excellently organized. We were picked up at the hotel with a pleasantly air-conditioned car and chauffeured to Luxor. A German-speaking guide boarded in Luxor and brought us closer to all the sights and their stories. Very pleasant and interesting. In between, we were deliciously catered for in pre-booked restaurants. We spent the night in a luxurious hotel, in the middle of the city. Overall an absolutely worthwhile trip. We would book here again immediately!

Overwhelming. We were thrilled. High competence of the tour guide, good organization and safe drivers - Overwhelming. Were thrilled by the high competence of the tour guide, the good organization and the safe drivers.
We can only recommend this tour.
Some details: Picked up at the hotel on time, taken to the airport, no problem that the plane tickets were only on the mobile phone. Jacob picked us up in Cairo and accompanied us for two days with perfect German and his overwhelming knowledge of the history of Egypt and Cairo. He knew how to convey the Egyptian museum and all other places of our trip in such a way that it always remained exciting but did not become exhausting. Our special requests (el Makkatam and the Church of St. Simon) and a Nile trip were integrated and competently explained for a fee. I would like to point out the light and sound show in front of the pyramids in the evening. In an impressive way, the story of the pyramids and ancient Egypt is conveyed right in front of the pyramids.
The passage into the interior of a pyramid and Jacob’s explanations of the scenes depicted by wall reliefs of everyday life of the Egyptians about 4,400 years ago in the tomb of Ptahhotep remain unforgettable. Taken back to the airport on time after visiting the bazaar and even brought back to the hotel by a German speaking driver in Hurghada.

Great experience - Very good organization of the excursion, vehicle, driver, guide and hotel overlooking the pyramids were to our complete satisfaction. Since there were only three of us on the private tour, our wishes were always taken into account and we did not have to take into account others or wait. Overall, an unforgettable experience that is recommended.

Cairo - 2 Days Private Tour - Things we Germans (partly me xD) like to worry about:
Is the provider reputable?
100 percent! Very great contact with Osman, who accompanied us throughout the booking process friendly and helpful. Also when canceling the tour, which we had to do the first time, because we could not start the trip.
Questions, even after booking, were always answered quickly and competently.
We loved that we could design the tour according to our wishes and visited Sakkara (step pyramid) instead of the alabaster mosque.
Isn’t the excursion or the journey much too strenuous? Is it worth the effort at all?
My wife is a chronic pain patient and survived the 2-day tour very well.
The comfort in the private car was very good. We were picked up in the morning at 2:30 a.m. by Mahmoud with a new Toyota Corolla, which offered us ample space.
The 6 hours outbound and 5 hours return journey flew by. Also thanks to Mahmoud, who has already shown and explained many things to us during the trip. But even the small talk with him was fun.
By the way, the effort is definitely worth it! I have had little to nothing more impressive to get to know than Egyptian history, architecture and culture, especially from the time of the Pharaohs.
The Pyramids of the 4th Dynasty of Giza are madness. How humans were able to accomplish this thousands of years ago remains a mystery to me
The pyramids of the 3. Dynasty (step pyramid) are not quite as impressive as Giza's, but there we could visit a burial chamber below a pyramid. For this we had to cross longer corridors and stairs with a maximum height of perhaps 120 centimeters. That was a nice adventure.
The National Museum is literally a treasure! What great exhibits and masterful craftsmanship. Here I spent almost 4 hours with our guide who explained everything to me patiently and excitingly.
The bazaar is interesting, thanks to our guide Maha we visited this morning, where not all shops were open, but there was still a bit of freedom of movement:-)
The Coptic quarter, or the Christian church standing there from the 4th century. Century was great too.
Thanks again to Maha. You have brought the history of Egypt very excitingly closer to us.
Food and accommodation, does that meet my standards?
For us a very clear yes! The two lunches were simple but authentic cuisine. Very delicious! And our stomachs can confirm that everything was very hygienic!
We were accommodated in the 33rd. Floor of Hilton The grand Nile. The view breathtaking, the breakfast outstanding. The rooms are very worn out but clean.
All in all, this was one of the most beautiful excursions we had the pleasure of making in our lives so far.
If we come to Egypt again, Luxor will be on our list. Only Memnon Reisen is eligible for booking!

Unrestrictedly recommended - We booked a private two-day trip from Hurghada to Cairo with Memnon Reisen. It was all, from the ride, to the very expert guide, the restaurant and the impressive hotel with pyramid views quite outstanding and as advertised in the travel description. I can therefore only agree with the many five star reviews without any qualification and recommend Memnon Reisen as a good and reputable company in every respect.

Completely happy and satisfied - We really enjoyed the trip to Cairo. With over 40 degrees it was of course very hot, so it was even better that Toni took us safely and quickly from one sight to the next in an air-conditioned car. Adel, our tour guide, is very competent and informative. This meant that we not only learned a lot about the great sights, but also about the country, people and life in Cairo and Egypt. He was very responsive to our wishes. A particular highlight for us was lunch at the bazaar. There are many delicious dishes in Cairo for vegetarians.
We can only recommend this tour.
