Maganificant Tour - Everything was perfect ! A bit of a long journey but it was worth it. We had a Russian- English guide just for the 6 of us. We started with the museum, really wonderful, we learned a lot. Then the meal in a restaurant near the pyramids. Very welcoming staff and very good meal. Then we went to the pyramids, very impressive. I do not advise you to enter the pyramid if you are short of breath. Short camel ride to the viewpoint, magnificent, you can trust your camel driver to take magnificent photos! Then we went to see the sphinx. We loved all the explanations from our guide Mina William! A perfect day despite the fatigue of the journey and waking up at 1:30 in the morning.

Perfect tour With Mina William - Russian-speaking guide with Mina William, and chauffeur service with Abanoub. Professional guide, he speaks excellent Russian and offers numerous advice, as well as historical explanations of the places visited. We visited the pyramids, the sphinx, camel ride , Saqqara necropolis and Memphis, without shoping . Before returning, typical lunch included in the price. The guide is very kind and often takes photos. Fresh water and fruit juice offered during the trip. Advised!

Memorable trip - Everything about the day was excellent - a perfect 10! They asked us to schedule a hotel breakfast box for pickup, and they were very communicative from the moment we booked it until the time of pick-up. We were picked up by a van with air conditioning, WiFi, a TV, snacks, and a variety of soft drinks! On pick-up, we were given the itinerary for the day along with the driving time for each item. We went straight to the museum after our early arrival and enjoyed a private boat ride down the Nile. I've never had a tour guide as informed, devoted, and enthusiastic as yasser Abd elmaged. I would wholeheartedly suggest this tour to anyone because we saw and learned so much during it.Huge thanks to Mina William for booking us & sending us the info xx

I Cannot recommend this tour enough - This was an amazing day visiting the pyramids, the sphinx and the museum. This is the tour company you must book for such a day out in Giza, but more importantly you MUST request Mr Yasser to be your guide in cairo but when you are in Hurghada request Mina William he is the best guide in Hurghada . Yasser is beyond connected: He knows every security guard, every ticket officer, every gate keeper, it’s unbelievable. He managed to drop us less than 50 meters from the great pyramid with Minivan and picked us up at the same spot once we were done. With him you will jump every queue, every line, you won’t have to wait anywhere. He is super knowledgeable and really great fun to be with. Please ask him to take you for a proper lunch near the sphinx: he has him entries in a restaurant band in front of the pyramids and the sphinx. He can takes amazing pictures as he knows the best spots to stand for every monument. He will translate hieroglyphs for you and give you very interesting facts about the ancient Egyptians. But more importantly for me, he was on time, with everything organised for the day but also very careful that people don’t bother you and he always had fresh water and sodas to keep us going. I cannot recommend Yasser in this tour enough. He will make a special day very special indeed!.In the end i want to thank Mina William who provided us with info and we booked all tours through him.He is really a nice guy

HurghadaToGo Team is So incredible. Thanks to our guide Yasser & Mina william who provided us with information - This is a fabulous tour with Yasser! He is very knowledgeable and informative.He picked us up from our hotel and took us to the great pyramid. He dropped us off and parked the car. He took fabulous pictures, told us what to look for in the pyramid and waited for us. We didn't have to wait in line for anything! He made sure that we received priority access to everything! He knows everyone there and they know him. We even received private access to the Queen's tomb. We skipped the line at the Sphinx. After that she took us to ride the camels and then the small bazaar there, then a fragrance shop, He order us lunch and he showed us the local areas while we ate a falafel on our way to the museum. She provided us with ice cold water throughout the trip. I was going to send him a baseball cap from the US, but unfortunately I deleted my WhatAp and lost him information, so if you see this Yasser contact me on WhatAp. We felt very safe in Egypt and we plan on returning, we will definitely request Yasser & i want to thank Mina william who explianed the program on WhatAp & contacted us smoothly

Would recommend - Fantastic day trip to Cairo. The minivan was very cozy, and the driver gave us extra pillows, lots of snacks, and drinks for the ride. Assisted by the kind guide, I saw all the important sites in Cairo. The driver was familiar with Cairo, so we were able to avoid any traffic. We traveled to and from Cairo much faster than we had anticipated. You can save time with this provider if you don't mind driving quickly.

So Fantastic - What a fantastic transfer and tour! Abanoub, our amazing driver, made the drive go quickly. There was also excellent Wi-Fi and a TV showing Egyptian history programs.Abanoub gave us information as we went and pointed out interesting vantage points. Lovely car, snacks, excellent air conditioning, and pillows. We left the Hurghada hotel at 1:40 am, and he returned us there by 7:45 pm. I really do think Abanoub could take me anywhere! The amazing man who gave tours of the pyramid complex and museum had a deep love for Egypt, his beautiful country. Thank you, Yasser, for sharing your wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm with us and for allowing us to see some of your country's treasures and history!

I recommend this tour for everyone - Fantastic day excursion to Cairo! Arrived at the hotel at two in the morning, picked up by a first-class driver in a first-class minivan. went on a tour of the Ancient Museum after spending the early morning on the Nile. After lunch, we're going to visit the pyramids in the afternoon. fantastic tour guide who looked after us the entire day and was very knowledgeable... Fantastic time spent learning about history and meeting new people. Wonderful drive back to the hotel for dinner that evening.

Amazing pyramids & Sphinx - Seeing some of the top sites Cairo has to offer is made possible by this trip! Highlights include the museum and the pyramids/Sphinx. Alla was an excellent guide who took care of us from beginning to end. She made sure we were safe at all times, comfortable during the journey, and satisfied with the trip's outcome. Even though I would go to bed fairly early before the trip and it is a long day, it is still well worth the money!

We received more than we anticipated - On our first trip to Egypt, we paid for the trip to the pyramids in Cairo and received more than we had anticipated. The Egyptian history museum was excellent, and the boat ride down the Nile to the floating restaurant was delightful (the boat cost $10). After that, we went to the Bedouins' home for tea and coffee. Next, we visited the pyramids and sphinx at Giza, also known as "old Memphis." The views were breathtaking, and the panoramic view, which included a camel ride, was well worth the $10 each. We made an interesting stop at the Egyptian Papyrus Museum when we thought the day was over. Overall, I would heartily recommend this trip to anyone planning a trip to Egypt. Many thanks to Yasser, our tour guide for the day
