Layover tour. Family. Parents, me and my brother.
Sayed Mahmoud, our guide was amazing. He is very kind and took care of us.
We had a layover of about 16hrs, and we did the Cairo tour in about 7 hrs.
Sayed took us to the museum first which was a great idea (rather than going to the pyramids first) because of the air conditioning. Haha. He showed us around and knew all the best spots for group pictures.
We stopped on the Nile bridge for a quick photo op.
The the pyramids were really good. Sayed took us to the panoramic spot and the photos are just muaah.
The best part is that Sayed handled it when we were stopped by an angry security guard at the pyramids. Police wasn't allowing our big camera zoom lens inside. Sayed made quick work of it and we didn't even had to come into the conversation.
Over all a great day.
I recommend Sayed 200%...... And he never pushed us to buy anything, rather handled the pestering hawkers. Guard + guide all in one.
