Wonderful - Zoze has been an excellent guide to us. He picked us up on time from our hotel and gave us a lot of info about the pyramids and the churches in the city. He also took us around the city to show us the best places to buy souvenirs and coffee. Absolutely enjoyed it.

Amazing tour to the pyramids. - It was a dream come true! The pyramids were breathtaking. Our guide stayed with us the entire time, so we felt very safe. We also had a private vehicle with AC, which definitely helped us through the hot sun. We had a nice dinner, overlooking the Sphynx. It was just a perfect day.
