Get Gouda as your guide - Mohammed Gouda made our trip exceptional. He was incredibly nice, funny, and knowledgeable. Gouda used our time commuting between sites to tell us the stories of ancient Egypt and it connected all the dots - made all the difference. He took us to the market to specific shops that gave us the BEST prices, which was confirmed when we saw 4x-10x costs at other “touristy” locations. The pyramids tour was amazing, along with the camel ride in the desert, and the real papyrus shops will make you feel like a kid in a candy store - you’ll want to buy all the art! Every meal was enjoyed on rooftops with the pyramids and Sphinx which is actually named Shesepankh as we learned- Alexander described it as Sphinx when he first saw it.
Highly recommend this company, and specific GOUDA! Thank you for an amazing tour Gouda!

Great experience with tree of life - What an experience. Started the day tour with our guide Yasser at the Giza Pyramids, one of the seven wonders of the world. After many numerous photos and Yasser kindly taking photos of us so we could have kindly attractions in the shots was great. This was followed by a memorable camel ride with the pyramids in arms length. Now for lunch, it was a kings feast at Abou Shakra with great view of the pyramids. Next we visited the Egyptian museum which was just amazing. So much to take in but just a pleasure to be there. Finishing of with a trip to the bazzar was an experience of its own. This whole tour l would definitely recommend for anyone coming to Egypt. From our driver, our camel handler and most of all our guide Yasser with thankyou for your hospitality.

Amazing tour with an amazing guide - I had the pleasure of having Moktar as my tour guide for the one day that I was free in Cairo to take a tour. Right from the start he amazed me with his in-depth knowledge of Egypt’s history and also ancient Egyptology. He made every effort to ensure I was comfortable and safe, changed plans to ensure the itinerary and schedule met my preference and made me feel safe the entire time I was in Cairo alone. It has always been my dream to visit Egypt and see the pyramids and I was not disappointed with what I’ve seen. It was every bit as fascinating and magnificent as I envisioned, and the experience was made even better with having such an experienced and friendly guide with me the whole time. I managed to see the best of what Cairo had to offer in one day, and I could not have done that without such an amazing guide. All in all, an unforgettable experience!

Family Trip to Giza - When the girls asked for a trip to Africa I wanted to make sure it was going to be a memorable one. This trip met all our expectations. Half of our family are Spanish speaker so we requested a Spanish tour, Abdul was very knowledgeable and caring. My mom got hurt during the excursion and instead of rushing us, he took his time with us so we all had a great time. We stop at the pyramids, papyrus house, essential oils shop, jewelry shop, local restaurant for lunch and the Egyptian museum. We skipped the Felucca ride on the Nile.

Wonderful day in Cairo - We had a wonderful day in Cairo with our guide Manar. She was so very knowledgeable about the history of the sites that we visited and was very attentive to our needs and requests. From the moment we first met her at our hotel at exactly 8 am, we knew we had made the right choice in our tour operator selection. Manar is a very experienced guide who has boundless energy when it comes fo describing in great detail everything before our eyes, she has knowledge way beyond her years and made it a truly memorable experience for us. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
