Fantastic tour and great guide and driver. - The tour was an excellent overview of Egyptian history and culture. Ali was excellent and his knowledge and love of his country’s culture were evident. The driver for the day navigated the streets with ease and was very friendly. The sights were beyond my wildest imagination. To see pyramids such as The Step, Bent, and Red in person after only reading about them was a dream come true. Ali added to the experience by explaining the history behind the pyramids and the statues at Memphis. The lunch provided was more than I could finish with a great selection of Egyptian cuisine. Overall the tour was great and I would highly recommend it.

Nice experience - The trip was a nice experience. I did one week exercise in a day by ascending and descending the steep ramps of the pyramids. My guide was Mona. She is so caring, thanks to Gems tour for the well organised programme.

Saqqara Pyramids Tour with Ola and Sam - This was a fantastic tour to see all of the original pyramids south of Cairo. We found these pyramids to be a lot more relaxing to visit than the ones in Giza since there is a lot less traffic and you can take in the sights a bit more. I would also recommend going into all of the pyramids if you can since these are a lot easier to navigate through than the Great Pyramid and is still a really cool experience. Our tour guide Ola was amazing as this was the third tour we had booked with her. She did a wonderful job of giving us tons of information about the different pyramids while also giving us a good amount of time to explore each one. Our driver Sam was excellent in getting us through all of the Cairo traffic as well. Highlights: The Step Pyramid, Bent Pyramid, Red Pyramid

Excellent day all round! - Our day with Wael was fantastic from start to finish. Good communication the day before to confirm meeting etc, Wael was on time to pick us up and Temal drove us safely to all the sites. Wael’s knowledge of the history of every site and Egyptian ancient history generally was outstanding. We learnt so much. Wael allowed plenty of time to look around and take pictures. He also gave good advice on which pyramids to explore more and the difficulty levels. The Egyptian lunch was delicious in a lovely restaurant and included in the price. We thoroughly recommend the tour and particularly Wael. Thanks our brother Wael, from your King and Queen Ian and Tracy 😁
