This was fine, but the guide kept insisting I wasn’t having a good time and it made me very uncomfortable. She also provided way more information than I needed and asked questions to make sure I was paying attention, which made the whole thing extremely tiresome. I was not going to write a review, but the tour operator keeps insisting that I do. I wouldn’t go with this tour operator again.

Sakkara, Pyramids of King Zoser and Memphis Today I had the pleasure of a fantastic guide Heeba and our driver Hisham who showed me some hidden gems of the city. We started our tour with a delicious local drink made from sugar cane. Our first stop was Sakkara monuments were we visited the pyramids of Zoser. The Egyptian history was explained while we travelled to the first stop so when we arrived I had a good understanding of the history and traditions. After an excellent time there at the pyramids we headed to a traditional Egyptian carpet weaver. I learned the skill and art of this ancient tradition and had a go at carpet knotting. We then headed to Memphis the old ancient city while the sun was setting we strolled the grounds which were amazing. The friendliness of the Egyptians made me feel very welcome and at ease as I was a solo tourist.

Great tour with Mondy and Heba! Heba was very enthusiastic and I was very happy all time with her explaining everything. I really enjoyed it!

Rafat was amazing, very friendly and knowledgable. Took us to the Saqqara pyramids and a few stops along the way - spice shop, and saw how they make carpets. 100% recommend!

It was an amazing afternoon exploring the complex of the Step Pyramid and Memphis! My guide, Ehab, was knowledgeable and made tour enjoyable. He took great pictures of me which was an added bonus. The driver Mohamed, was professional and made me feel safe in the crazy Cairo traffic. After the official tour ended, I was able to extend it to include seeing the Bent and Red Pyramid in Dahshur, which made my afternoon complete!

We had a great trip with Doaa - so informative and friendly and so much to see. Would have appreciated an air conditioned car.

Our guide Ehab was very friendly and knowledgeable. Our driver Ahmed did a great job always being ready for us when we exited our stops and navigated expertly. Ehab is highly educated and has even worked in archeological.

The communication from the tour operator and guide was great, and the driver arrived right on time. Our guide, Bishoy, shared lots of information about history, culture, and politics We learned that the step pyramid (Sakkara), is the oldest in Egypt. It was amazing to see and we also had an opportunity to venture down into the tomb of a different pyramid. That was a bit of an adventure, but definitely worth it! We also visited Memphis which was the first capital of Egypt. Lots of ruins and the largest statue of King Ramses II. So much to learn and experience!!
