Again and again. Perfectly organized!!!! - Just great!!! We booked the private Cairo tour from Hurghada with flight. Punctually 4:45 we were picked up and driven to the airport. Once there, our guide Makdi introduced himself and planned our day. He was very helpful and always had an open ear. He only recommended the pyramids to us because it can get very hot there at lunchtime. Makdi explained everything to us about the whole day. And kept asking if we understood everything. He also told us something about the population and its way of life which was very helpful. The whole day was perfectly planned through, but at our pace. The guide took care of us all day, bought water again and again or other drinks on request. Just great. We will come back and then book Luxor and definitely through Memnon Trips. I can only recommend it. No sales tours, just pure culture. PERFECT!! 5stars are not enough for this here you should give 10 stars. TOP!!!

Cairo is worth a trip - with great organization and many impressions! - It was a great day with Jakob. Everything was coordinated with us temporally and locally. We had enough time and breaks everywhere. Lunch was great too. Highlights were the pyramids, the Nile cruise through the city and the bazaar at the end. The organization was great also from hotel pickup to flight with Egyptair. Would recommend the trip to anyone if you want a lot of cultural information and to look into the culture!

Private Cairo Excursion 2 Days by Flight - Our 2 day private plane trip to Cairo and Giza was perfect from start to finish. The morning pickup from the hotel in Soma Bay took place on time and in Cairo our guide Essam and our driver Khalil were already waiting for us. Both led or drove us safely through Cairo both days. Essam followed our wishes and so we started by visiting the pyramids in Giza. A unique experience, we even stayed in the burial chamber of the CheopsPyramid. After lunch, which was also very good, we visited the articulating pyramid and the red pyramid and then drove to the hotel to prepare for the next day. The next day we were picked up again on time and drove to Sakkara to visit the pyramid and tomb. We visited a small inconspicuous pyramid with a fantastic burial chamber. After visiting the Coptic quarter and having a very good lunch right on the Nile again, we went to the Egyptian museum, of course with the Tutankhamun exhibition and many other beautiful pieces. Finally we went with Essam through the old town and souks of Cairo, which was also super interesting. At no time did we feel uncomfortable or insecure, it was all super interesting and absolutely relaxed and safe. Also the return flight from Cairo to Hurghada and the transfer back to our hotel went great. We can fully recommend Memnon Trips, after the private trip to Luxor last year it was our second trip with Memnon and certainly not our last!

Hard to believe what's on offer - Our trip to Cairo with Memnon Trips was simply unforgettable! The day started with a smooth pickup from the hotel, and the driver was extremely friendly and helpful. At the airport we got our plane tickets and the adventure could start.
Our guide in Cairo was excellent – he responded to all our wishes, showed us the main sights and took numerous photos with us. The Egyptian Museum was, as always, impressive alongside the giant pyramids. Especially the exhibits like the silver and derglass sarcophagus I saw for the first time. A big praise to the guide for his extensive knowledge and passion!
Lunch in a well-chosen restaurant was delicious, and the subsequent visit to the bazaar took us into the atmosphere of Old Cairo. We particularly liked that the traders were not intrusive, which made the visit very pleasant. Since we still had time before our flight went back, we enjoyed dinner at a local restaurant – the Springbok dish was a real highlight!
Even if our return flight was an hour late, this disadvantage was offset by the excellent service of Memnon Trips. The driver waited patiently for us and brought us safely back to the hotel.
All in all, it was a wonderful and eventful day in Cairo. I can only recommend everyone to invest a little more and take advantage of this unique service. Memnon Trips has given us an unforgettable day!

Great and impressive - We had a great day in Cairo on May 24th, 2024. Everything went smoothly. Special thanks to our extremely friendly Egyptologist Magdy, who told us so many interesting things about the pyramids and the exhibits in the Egyptian Museum.

Great, individual excursion! Anytime again! - As a family, we booked the day trip from Hurghada by plane to Cairo/Giza to see the pyramids and everything went really well from the start! As big fans of Egyptian history, it was important to us not to book a run-of-the-mill tour or a coffee trip! It really exceeded all of our expectations. Our guide Magdy had so much knowledge and surprised us with so much new, interesting information, just great! He was so attentive to us, even when I was feeling unwell because of the heat, he and our driver took very good care of me. Thank you both very much!
If you want an individual tour, Memnon Reisen is the right place for you! We can recommend it 100% and will definitely book with Memnon Reisen again on our next Egypt vacation.
