We started the day with a camel ride to see the sunrise over the Giza pyramids at dawn, and closed with the iconic light show at the foot of the Sphinx. Mamdouh was our attentive and deeply knowledgeable guide, and he truly made the experience as perfect as it was. I've traveled to Egypt a number of times, and doing touristy things in Cairo (on one's own) can often be an overwhelming blur of heckling and haggling with dubious ticket-hawkers and some guy trying to get you to take a picture with his camel. This was smooth, fun, customized to our group's interests and needs, and legitimately educational.
