Unforgettable Journey with Egypt Life Tours - From a sense of apprehension to experiencing our most memorable adventure, our recent trip to Egypt, facilitated by Egypt Life Tours, defied every expectation. We were initially hesitant due to the turmoil and the many errors that often occurred during generation. Please try again or contact support if it continues.

Beyond the Pyramids: A Tour Through Egypt's Living History - From the moment our adventure began, stepping into the crisp morning air awaiting our pickup (albeit a tad late, but what's a few minutes in the grand scale of anticipation?), to the evening's gentle waves on the Nile, the tour was nothing short of magical. Our guide, Zenab, was knowledgeable and had an incredible ability to weave stories that made ancient stones breathe life. Ashraf, our seamless navigator through Cairo's bustling streets, ensured we were spectators and participants in the day's unfolding tapestry. Giza Plateau: Up Close and Personal with the Sphinx The Giza Pyramids, majestic and towering, were as awe-inspiring as one might imagine. The highlight, unsurprisingly, was the Sphinx. There's something unexplainably profound about standing in front of such antiquity, feeling the weight of thousands of years in its silent gaze back at you. The knowledge Ashraf imparted added layers to what we saw, transforming our awe into a deeper appreciation. Sakkara & Dahshur Pyramids: Unearthing the Layers of History The tour didn’t stop at the familiar; it took us deeper into Egypt’s heart, to Sakkara and the remarkable step pyramid, and then to the less frequent but equally fascinating Dahshur Pyramids. Each site had its unique charm and mystery, pivotal pieces in the complex jigsaw puzzle of Egypt's history. Nile Cruise: Cairo Through a Different Lens The dinner cruise on the Nile was enchanting, offering respite after a day of exploration. Cairo's nighttime skyline, a stark contrast to the ancient relics we'd been immersed in throughout the day, reminded us of Egypt's living history - an intricate blend of the past and present. The Surprise Finale Zenab's thoughtful surprise, based on an off-handed remark I made earlier in the day, was the perfect ending to our tour. These personal touches elevate a great tour into an unforgettable experience. Even Great Experiences Have Room for Improvement While the day was near perfect, a more punctual start and perhaps a deeper dive into each site's historical context could further refine the experience. Yet, these are but minor details in an otherwise captivating day. In Conclusion The "Beyond the Pyramids" tour is more than just a trip; it's an invitation to walk through the gates of time into Egypt's heart. Zenab and Ashraf didn't just show us Egypt's wonders; they made us feel its pulse - the awe, the enchantment, and the profound connection to humanity's shared past. For those considering the tour, prepare for a day that will linger in your memory, weaving its enchantment long after you return home.

Our best tour! - Well, we were a little worried about visiting Egypt, as we had concerns regarding Middle East turmoil. But it turned out to be our best tour ever. We had limited time, so our best tour was booked with Egypt Life Tours. Ashraf was our guide. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and patient, and he became a friend of ours. We strongly recommend it.

Family adventure in Cairo - Our father-daughter adventure in Cairo was something out of a storybook, and the tour of Giza was absolutely breathtaking! Ashraf was Our Guide, he gave us in-depth insights into the Giza Pyramids, Sakkara and the museum of Memphis. We bombarded him with questions and he answered every single one with incredible knowledge and patience. Would definitely recommend this experience to any family looking to explore the wonders of Egypt.

Best Cairo tour - It was quite a full day and evening covering all major pyramids sites with my Egyptologist Ashraf and his driver ( I don't recall the name). Ashraf is also a great photographer. I ended up on the Nile enjoying a dinner with oriental show. Thank you Egypt Life Tours

A Glorious Dive into History: - Visiting Egypt and skipping on the Pyramids of Giza, Saqqara, and Memphis tour? Unthinkable! This guided tour provides an extraordinary opportunity, offering a close-up glimpse into Egypt's magnificent architecture and profound history. On the Giza Plateau, you are greeted by the pyramids, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, in all their majestic glory. They stand as testimony to an advanced civilization that existed millennia ago. Being around these ancient structures puts you in awe, reminding you of the timelessness of human endeavour. Although the place can get crowded, the sheer magnificence of the pyramids and the smooth organization of the tour makes up for it. The Saqqara complex, home to the Step Pyramid, is another thrilling stop on the tour. The spectacular staggered architecture of Djoser's pyramid along with the surrounding ancient tombs make for a unique experience. The exotic aura of Saqqara captivates you, highlighting various aspects of Egypt's antiquity. Lastly, the journey takes you to the ruins of ancient Memphis. Once a thriving city and a center of rule, it presents an archaeological treasure site that sparks amazement. The colossal statue of Ramesses II and other artifacts displayed in the open-air museum leave a lasting impression. Overall, the one important aspect of the tour are the guide and driver (Mimo and Amr). Mimo great knowledge and insights to the rich Egyptian history. Amr, great and safe driver.

Giza Memphis and Saqqara Private Tour - Mimmo, our guide, accompanied us on the visit to the sites of Giza Menfi and Saqqara, providing us with exhaustive and detailed explanations. Absolutely recommended

Amazing tour with Mimo! - Really awesome day. Private tour that hits not just Giza but also a Nile cruise, the step pyramid at Saqqara, and the museum in Memphis with the Ramsey II statue. Mimo was an awesome tour guide as well. Even scheduled a surprise at the end of the trip based on some things I had mentioned during the trip.

Great Cairo highlight experience - We had such an authentic experience with our guide Mimo. He was knowledgeable and went out of his way to show us some additional highlights. Even arranged a 2nd day tour for us as we were so impressed. Ali was our driver. Best driver in Egypt. We felt safe with him every minute and he stopped to spoil us with little treats on the way. These two people made the private tour all the more enjoyable and we would highly recommend them.

Full circle - I totally recommend to pay extra to get a private day tour. Although the booking agency missed our last change of reservation we were able to rearrange and stick to the original date. The guide was very keen to make sure we had a very nice experience so we started the day on the Nile and chose a different boat than the felucca, as the wind was week. We sailed for an hour or so and enjoyed the awakening of the city and the picturesque fishermen, then we moved onwards to Giza to see the pyramids, the sphinx and we rode on camels. Then the trip went on to Memphis to see the giant statue of Ramses II and then further on to Sakkara to see more pyramids, temples and mausoleums. Then we went back to the hotel where we relaxed a few hours before we got picked up for the Nile dinner cruise. The last part could be skipped. But all-in-all a great experience with a knowledgeable guide who made sure that we got a nice experience with no traffic jam and lots of stories about Egypt history past and present. We got a full circle experience for life from dusk till dawn.
