Great experience! - I think Sameh did an excelent job and the whole experience is a great value. As you visit the places in the main itinerary he starts with an explanation and then he takes you some photos and allows you to roam freely until you're satisfied. He also offers several optional stops to some shops and the camel ride but he doesn't pressure you in any moment, it really was as the reviews said and he respects your decisions.

Amazing trip 👌 - Sameh exceeded our expectations for our tour. He treated us like royalty and provided the most kind, professional, insider knowledge imaginable. His thoughtfulness, passion, and dedication is evident with everything he showed us today. He took his time explaining all the wonder details of ancient Egyptian history and culture which truly reflects his 20+ years of experience in his field. Sameh made us feel like family and we are so grateful that we had the honor and pleasure of having him as our tour guide in Giza. Book him asap, and you will love the experience. Thank you so very much Sameh for your hospitality.

No need to hesitate, book now and thank me later :) - Sam is amazing! We are a family of four, went on this private tour with Sam, and he is the perfect guide at least for this route. He is very professional, respectful, honest, flexible and humorist, and most importantly, good story teller. He even used stick to draw on sand while explaining the history of the sites, so anyone could easily understand and remember the key points. He is very passionate on ancient Egyptian history, so no need to doubt on his knowledge. He also graduated from Cairo University, Department of English, so that should answer your worry about language. Before the tour, he would let us know the itinerary, listen to our opinion and preference, then give us options we could choose for. You could feel safe having Sam as a guide around, as he would also tell you tips and trick, do’s and don’ts at those tricky tourist sites. Plus, he will always remember to stop and take good photos for us. He patiently wait until we are done visiting each site, no rush at all. Conclusion: best guide you could ever ask for :)
