It was an amazing day!!! - Pick up was on time, first we started with Sakkara, then Memphis, Dahshur and Giza at the end of the day. Sunset in Giza was breathtaking! Everything was awesome and my private tour guide Walaa Farah was the best, she explained me everything and we had lots of fun as well :)!!!
I highly recommend this trip!!!

Great trip to less commonly visited sites - Went for a half day trip to Saqqara, Dahsur and Memphis, with just a driver (ie. no guide). My driver Ali was very friendly and patient especially! I believe the typical duration for similar excursions is typically 4-5 hours, but being obsessed with taking the ‘perfect’ pictures I took 6 hours. Ali was also helpful in suggesting a couple of local koshary restaurants.
Saqqara and especially Dahshur were significantly less touristy (and fewer touts) than the Giza plateau - highly recommended for those who prefer a quieter visiting experience or want pictures without hundreds of visitors in the background.

Highly recommend for any Cairo trip! - This excursion truly beat our expectations! Khaled was a fantastic guide and extremely knowledgeable. He took time to answer all of our questions in detail and never made us feel rushed. We chose this experience over our hotel options as this included all three sites at once and I highly recommend. We chose the option that included a driver, guide, and tickets included.

Exceptional and unforgettable - Our tour guide Abdula was exceptional and made our experience in Egypt warm, welcoming and unforgettable as we wish to come back as kindness and good heart made all the difference in the world. We have travelled globally on all continents and Egyptian people are the best.

Underrated spots in Egypt! - Really interesting tour to Memphis, Dashur and Saqqara! We even had free snacks and drinks by our french-speaking informative guide! However, we kinda felt rushed sometimes and didn't have a lot of room for questions but it was still interesting!
