Traveler Reviews

We had a wonderful tour with Mohamed Hamed. We started early and were one of the first at the pyramids. This made for such a pleasant experience! We had the pyramids almost all to ourselves. From there we visited the Sphinx and then went to Sakkara. We ended in Memphis and then stopped for lunch on our way home. Mohamed was so great and provided so much history and knowledge throughout our entire day. Would definitely recommend him!

My guide was very knowledgeable, kind, and made sure I would not be hassled by vendors throughout my whole tour. I saved the pyramids for my last day in Egypt and had already seen all the major temples from Aswan to Luxor; my guide for this trip was easily the best of all of them. It also goes without saying that the pyramids are incredible, even after seeing all the other ancient sites. Sakkara is absolutely worth adding on. I would have been ok not seeing Memphis if I was limited on time, but the entrance fee was only 80 EGP for this one. I didn’t realize it would be a private tour for just me (I was traveling solo), so this turned out to be an even better deal than I thought. I never felt rushed, and we had great conversations about Egyptian and global politics on top of all the ancient history. I had the option to go to perfume, papyrus, jewelry, and cotton shops but was never made to feel like I needed to go (I only went to the cotton one, which turned out to be not my style at all). I highly recommend this tour! Of note, entrance fees are not included and total ~400 EGP for all sites as of April 2019 (half off if you bring a student ID card, pictures of ID’s are not accepted).

Our Egypt experience would have not been memorable if not for our excellent tour guide. Essam made me and my friend very safe. He is very courteous and knowledgeable. He became our official photographer and bodyguard at the same time. He made sure that all our needs are met. He is very professional in what he does. I highly recommend him to my family and friends. There was never an uncomfortable moment while we were with him. He treated us as his guest to his country. He is very polite and humble.

My boyfriend and I went in September to Egypt. Tonsi was our guide. Believe me when I tell you that he is the absolute BEST!!! He knows so much and does his work with all his heart. If you love adventure, he’s your man. He picked us up from our hotel in Giza, we drove to the pyramids and what an amazing time we had!! I’ve been dreaming of Egypt for over 20 years since I was a little girl. Tonsi seriously made my dreams come true. We became such good friends. My boyfriend and I are already planning our next trip back to Egypt.
