Great guide, knowledgeable, helpful and funny. - Firstly - if you’re planning to do anything in or around Cairo and the Giza complex, whether solo or in a group, you need a guide. Most importantly a guide will help deter the many vendors that will approach you, some of whom can be pretty persistent. But also a good guide will help you avoid being charged ‘tourist prices’ for everything. But more than that a good guide will help you get the most out of your experience, and that’s what I got with Mohamed Fayed. Mohamed really knows a lot about Egyptian history both ancient and modern, and this really added to the tours. He showed me around the Giza pyramids and Sphinx on day 1 and took me around Saqqara and Memphis on day 2. He was so helpful. There is a LOT to see on both tours and Mohamed helped streamline the visit, and also minimise our time in the sun - which is a real bonus if you’re as pale as I am! Mohamed also has a great sense of humour which really added to my enjoyment of the tour. And he knows where to get a really good falafel! Thank you Mohamed for helping make my visit so memorable.
