Pyramids Tour (Giza—Sphinx —Saqqara —Dahshour —Memphis)

Amazing private tour for 5 days in Cairo. Can't recommend Marwa highly enough. She guided my son and me round some popular and lesser known sights with great knowledge and pitched it just right for a 15 year old to keep him engaged. Whether you are a female travelling alone or a family, Marwa will ensure you have the trip of a lifetime.

I came to Egypt looking for a personalized tour - and one owned by an independent female business operator. I was so lucky to find Marwa Hafez - the Egyptian Museum’s first female Egyptologist. My time with Marwa began at the airport where she arranged my transport and was there to meet me in person (which gave me so much comfort upon arriving into Egypt as a solo female traveler.) She got me settled into my hotel and my adventure began at the pyramids of Giza the next day. It was incredible! She took me to all the sites, explained everything in detail (but kept it interesting) and took as many photos of me as I wanted (even more!) I highly recommend Marwa Hafez and her customized tours. She takes care to ensure that all of your transport is taken care of (and is performed by trusted drivers), that you see and do all that you like, and that you enjoy your stay in Egypt in comfort and safety. Having an Egyptologist there to explain things as only an Egyptologist can is one of the highlights of course. I overheard other tour guides while seeing the pyramids and knew I was getting the good stuff (the legitimate information!) Another highlight is that she knows almost everyone in Cairo and beyond - drivers, guards at checkpoints and at museums- and all welcome her with a huge smile and conversation. You know that you’re working with someone you can trust - and that you’ll have a smoother experience than if you were to travel alone or with a large tour. Do yourself a favor and book with Marwa.

I would give Mawra ten stars if I could. She is an incredibly passionate and knowledgable Egyptologist - my partner and I could not have asked for anyone better to show us around Giza, Saqqara, Memphis. The tour has been the highlight of our trip so far, and we cannot wait to visit Egypt again. Mawra is very kind, communicative and thoughtful. She always ensured we were comfortable and spending the right amount of time at the various locations. If you are searching for a guide, look no further than Mawra. Thank you for being a part of us creating such lovely memories!
