Hanging out with Karim! - Had a wonderful full day trip to visit Djoser, Ramses, Pyramids of Giza, Sphinx, and everything in between, all in one day! Karim was an excellent tour guide, he knew all the locals and special spots off the normal "tourist" path. He has studied Egyptology, and was a wealth of information, even though he still thinks the great Pyramids are tombs, haha! Recommend hanging out with Karim, but you have to tease him back!
