Touring with Manar - Manar was our tour guide in this trip and she was phenomenal!! She showed up on time, spoke fluent English and was very well educated on the history of Egypt. We had our 11 year old son with us and we all loved it!! Manar is extremely trust worthy and she looked after our belongings when we were inside the Pyramid. She answered all of our questions and took us to have an incredible lunch overlooking the Sphinx. I would definitely book with Manar again in the future! She takes great family photos!!

Excellent Day Trip in Cairo - We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids) that planned a long layover in Cairo for a day trip on our way to Jordan. It was the best decision we could have made! We organized the trip through Viator who connected us with Let’s Explore Egypt as our tour company. More importantly we were connected with an amazing tour guide, Mony! She reached out to us by WhatsApp the day before we left the U.S. to confirm our flight information. Even though our flight ended up landing 1.5 hours late, she was waiting for us and ready to provide alternate suggestions given our shortened time. Also, she was very flexible as we wanted to reorder and change some of the itinerary items. We started off with lunch (which was included) except for additional soft drinks and juices that we ordered. Lunch was plentiful and very tasty including appetizer, entree and dessert. They were able to accommodate vegetarian and allergy restrictions as well as good meat options. This was a good way to start the day. Once satiated by our meal, we headed to the pyramids. It did not disappoint. Mony was very enthusiastic about Egypt in general and proud of her background. It came through as she shared not only information about the tourist sites we visited but also gave a personal perspective from her experiences having spent her entire life in the Cairo/Giza area. She happily took many pictures as we posed. Mony also negotiated replacing our included camel ride for a horse carriage ride instead. (Saving the camel ride for Jordan!) After the pyramids we went to a museum/store where we learned about how papyrus paper is made and found some paintings that we just had to have! No pressure at all to buy anything and very educational. Next we had a desire for ice cream, so she found a place for us to have a treat. Despite all that we had done, we still had a few extra hours before our flight. No problem - Mony gave us several options. Go to a bazaar, see a light and sound show at the pyramids or head back to the airport early. We decided to have dinner and see the light and sound show at the pyramids. Mony arranged the reservation at the last minute as it was not on the original itinerary. It did not disappoint. Seeing the lights and hearing the history about the pyramids again in perfect outdoor weather conditions was exceptional. Finally, we were ready to head back to the airport. After a full day of seeing Cairo and its surrounding we were happy. Even on the way back to the airport, Mony was full of energy and shared much information as we continued to have many questions. We will definitely be back to Egypt for another, longer visit in the future. And we will definitely look to Mony to show us around again!!

Great tour! - My mom and I had a wonderful day with Ibrahim (and driver Amir). We learned so much about Egyptian history and had lots of laughs along the way. Ibrahim was a gentleman helping my mom navigate the areas with uneven ground. He took fabulous pictures for us and made sure we were comfortable and happy. I would happily recommend Ibrahim (and Amir) - they were fantastic!!
