Absolutely recommended, the best guide in Egypt - The tour with Sherif was amazing. It is a crack and knows a lot about the history of Egypt, but certainly the best thing was the facilities that put us when booking the tour and reaching the pyramids. Also, since we could not return to the hotel, he helped us and brought us himself. It is nice to coincide with people like that, I absolutely recommend making this visit with him, especially if your English is limited, since his pronunciation is perfect and understandable for all audiences.

Absolutely and highly recommendable. - Sherif is a friendly and communicative egyptologist who will not only thoroughly inform you about every aspect and question that you might have about ancient Egyptian civilization in general and the pyramids in particular but is also blessed with a goodly amount of humor. At the same time he is probably the best possible protection against the numerous folks who stubbornly try to sell you services and souvenirs at „special“ prices. Sherif also is knowledgeable about the subject of photography, especially portraits, which will make sure that you look posh on those memorable shots by the pyramids with your loved one/s! The icing on your pyramid cake are his valuable tips on where to have lunch after the tour, be it local, or any other good quality restaurant you might want to try. What struck us especially is the obvious passion with which he conveys his thorough knowledge of ancient Egyptian civilization coupled with the hints he derives from it concerning modern problems of mankind like questions of the protection and preservation the earth that we all share. Sherif, thank you very much indeed for an unforgettable, impressive time with you on that Giza pyramids tour!

THE SHERIF OF THE PYRAMIDS 🔫🔫 - Spectacular guide. Good sense of humor and excellent command of English. It achieves a perfect balance between history and narration that makes the tourist immerse themselves in the pyramids. Very complete tour!

Best guide in Cairo! - My husband and I did two tours with Sherif and they were both amazing. He is a funny, experienced and prepared guide. He was able to answer to our (many) questions and to make the long tour fly by. I would highly raccomand him as a guide.

Indiana Jones meet Morgan Freeman - Imagine a tour guide who looks like Indiana Jones with the voice of Morgan Freeman. That’s Sherif - the sheriff of Egyptian lores! And a masterful storyteller as well (i have told him that he could be a Vegas performer). I was very careful with choosing my guide, as I know some of them out there can be very ‘sales-y’ and do alot of those ‘tourist traps’ (bringing you to random shops etc). And Sherif is none of that. He is purely here to educate (with a flare for showmanship) you on your pyramid studies - making it so much more interesting than if you were on your own. You can see he’s in this for the passion! Oh! Sherif also has an added value which is being this perfect DP (director of photography) in your picture and video taking escapades! I have great social media content thanks to him. I personally think $20 is underselling the value that he brings, but I suppose its a testament to his passion of being an Egyptologist, and also just being a really nice human being. Thanks Sherif for the wonderful memory!

Highly Recommend!! - Sherif is an amazing guide! He truly has passion for sharing Egyptian history with everyone and does not hold back on his knowledge. He was my first guide in Cairo and he set the bar extremely high. His Giza Pyramids tour is amazing, but you can ask him for other tours too. As a solo female traveller, he was my driver and guide to Saqqara. He explained the history of Saqqara, the amazing excavations and findings in the tomb, and interesting facts about the temple. If you are looking for a passionate and educated guide, I highly recommend you reach out to him. Major plus, he knows all the locals!
