Perfect experience - Here’s the English translation of your passage: --- Today, we joined a half-day tour to the Pyramids and the Sphinx, which we booked through Viator. It came with a private guide and driver. Before coming here, we had already heard about the notorious scams around the pyramids, but after experiencing it firsthand, I didn’t think it was that scary—maybe because we had our guide Yasser with us. Our guide was amazing—he was funny and had a great sense of humor. When we arrived at the pyramids, he helped us take all kinds of photos and videos until we were satisfied. While we were riding camels, he even carried our backpacks and walked alongside us the entire way. Seriously, where can you find such a great guide like him? Of course, since Egypt is known as a “tipping country,” tips are expected—but they won’t force you to give. Other than some upscale restaurants that charge a sales tax, you can tip however much you feel comfortable with. At noon, we had lunch with Yasser and our driver Solba at a local Egyptian restaurant. Yasser ordered us a grill mix (which I jokingly called a “carcinogenic platter” ), but it was actually a pretty tasty Egyptian meal. After that, they drove us back to our hotel. To sum up my final impression of Egypt—there are security checks and police inspecting bags and cars everywhere. But I really like Egyptian people. They’re warm, kind-hearted, and very genuine. No matter where you go, people say hi or ask to take photos with you. But if you stop for a photo, more and more people will keep coming. If I had more time, I’d stop for every one of them. Even if you don’t buy anything, just saying “thank you” is enough—they won’t get upset. It feels like interacting with a friend—natural and relaxed. Thank you, Egypt, for everything. As I write this, I’m getting teary-eyed. This journey has brought me so many wonderful encounters, and I’m truly reluctant to leave. Our trip is almost coming to an end. Wait for me, Egypt! One day, I’ll definitely be back. LOVE EGYPT --- Let me know if you'd like this in a more poetic, travel-blog style!

Fatima was awesome! - We could not have been happier with our guide Fatima. She was flexible with us, made it interesting for our little kids, took wonderful family photographs, and had detailed knowledge of everything we asked about. I wish we’d booked all of our excursions in Cairo with her - great kid-friendly tour that was a lot of fun for the adults too.

Perfect from start to finish - A great day from start to finish thanks to Fatima who is as knowledgeable as she is passionate about Egyptian history. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Looking forward to the next tour.

Amazing views, great experience - I recently had a tour with Mohammed (tour guide) and Magda (driver) who were both great hosts. Mohammed was incredibly personable, spoke English very well and was eager to take pictures throughout. He showed me all the sights and made sure the tour was catered to however I wanted to spend my time in GIza. Further, he provided great insight about life in Cairo - amazing experience

Fantastic Layover thanks to Yassar! - Yassar picked us up from our hotel. We didn’t have much time but they ensured we had a perfect trip. We visited the pyramids, took a camel ride and had a great lunch. They did everything for us. We felt very safe and he was constantly checking on us. We got to do everything we wanted and they got us safely to the airport. We highly recommend them!

Great tour! Thank you Fatma, you did great!

So much fun! - We had a blast today! Fatma and our driver were prompt and waiting for us first thing. Fatma was extremely polite and intelligent!! She gave us a ton of information starting in the car on the way and was sure to continue to fill us in on all things, and answered many of our questions. She made us feel extremely comfortable and made us laugh often. We got great pictures with the pyramids, Sphinx, camel ride etc. Lunch was authentic Egyptian food and was very delicious! If I had to do the day all over again I would do it the exact same way! I would recommend Fatma as a tour guide to all who sign up as well!!

A Day to Remember! - It was our first time in Egypt and we wanted to fit a lot of sites in a short amount of time. This tour was perfect for that! We went to the pyramids, did a camel ride around the pyramids, saw the Great Sphinx, went to the Cairo museum, and had a delicious lunch overlooking the pyramids! Our guide, Manar Atwa, spoke perfect English and was very knowledgable about everything that we saw throughout the day! Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone in Egypt looking to cram a lot into a short amount of time!
