Highlights

Pyramids of Giza - Ancient masonry structures known as the Egyptian pyramids are located in Egypt. Sources mention at least 118 identified Egyptian pyramids. Most of these were built during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods as burial sites for the nation’s pharaohs and their consorts.

Great Sphinx - A sphinx is a legendary creature with a human head, a lion’s body, and falcon wings. In Greek mythology, the sphinx has the head of a woman, the body of a lion, and the wings of a bird. She is depicted as cunning and ruthless, ready to kill and devour those who fail to solve her riddle.

The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Cairo, Egypt, also known as the Egyptian Museum or Museum of Cairo, houses a vast collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts. It contains 120,000 items in total, with some on display and most in storage. Built in 1901 by the Italian construction company Garozzo-Zaffarani, the museum has been open to the public since March 2019. The new Great Egyptian Museum in Giza is set to replace it in 2020.

Egypt Papyrus Museum - Papyrus is an early form of book. Egypt is the first known place where papyrus was used, dating back to at least the First Dynasty, due to the once-abundant papyrus plant.

Top friendly professionals credit to your company - I would like to take time to thank all the staff on the trip I booked. It was a very special occasion (just married) and the staff made us feel so welcoming. They were not only kind but also considerate they didn't rush me with a bad knee and I couldn't have asked for more. The staff here are a credit to you. We all started of as strangers but the kindness of your staff has made us feel more like family. Will definitely book up again for more tours. Again thank you.

Good quality one day extraordinary experience - The trip to Cairo is a bit long experience but I would not miss it for the world. We went to many places with all a unique experience. The Nile river boat was nice but the pyramids off course the highlight. It’s very recommended to go with this trip. They take good care of everything along the way and in every experience they tell you what you could experience and also what not to do. With this they really make the experience comfortable. We managed to do everything we wanted to and it was very nice! Amr and the bus drivers but also the nice guide in Cairo named Abi, a nice lady who knows a lot, gave us an extraordinary day. This is absolutely worth the visit. Thanks Amr and Abi.

Very pleasant private adventure - Very good day. We did the adventure in private only my spouse and our 2-year-old. The IMA Guide was great. She speaks French very well and is excrementally kind patient and adorable with our child. We were able to take a small cruise for 15€ per person extra , nice but not very useful. We obviously made the perfumery where we negotiated the Award. And the paper factory where we did not buy anything without problems. The lunch restaurant is not crazy but fast. We made camel on site, very nice. I advise you to take the tour in private , the van is that for you so you can end your night and take a nap on the way home . Sam and the drivers are nice We do not regret our day It’s a “big tourist” day but that’s what we are in the end in this country
