The Pyramids of Dahshur are a must see! - Our guide, Osama, was not only kind, but also intelligent and humorous, and gave us a very enjoyable tour. Our driver, Abu Tolla, drove safely (not scary). Thank you. It was a precious memory. Personally, I recommend Dahshur over Giza! If you want to see the inside, Saqqara is definitely the place to go!

Good day trip to Sakkara - Good tour! Liked Sakkara a lot, way less crowded than Giza the day before, and more reconstructed runs; Dahsur was also pretty nice (we went inside the pyramid, which was a lot of work); Memphis didn't have much but I already expected that. Guide had very good info without being too pushy, I recommend him. Lunch was good as well. This was one of the few group tours I could find (didn't want to go solo with a guide); they were very responsive helping me schedule last minute (10pm the day before). Started 7h40, ended 4pm.

Individual travel in Egypt - Our tour guide Salib was always very nice, patient and helpful. We spent 3 days with him around Cairo. My father really wanted to have a personal trip to Egypt and Salib fulfilled all of his wishes without fail. He was very enthusiastic. Whenever we had questions, whether about religion, culture or history, he was always able to answer everything. Thank you for these 3 wonderful days Salib!

%100 Suggested / Unbeliveable Experience - On behalf of Cairo private guided tours, Salib is the magnificent guide. He knows the way of doing his job in an amazing hospitality way. You can trust his any kind of word what he is saying. He will definetely fulfill your enthusiasim with his knowledge of all period of Egyptian history just listen to him. In a short way he is a encylopedia of Egypt. If you are looking for a private guide in Cairo, now you found it.

Ancient Egypt Treasures! - During our vacation we met Salib and George that took us visits three wonderful Egypt pearls; most people prefer to visit the Giza ones, but I think that Dahshur and Sakkara have a chance too to be visited. Before returning to our hotel we saw also Memphis, where you can see some of the oldest statue of Egypt and immerse yourself into ancient stories. Believe or not, these places took a piece of our Heart.
