My friend and I booked a 2-day private tour of Giza and old Cairo via Viator. The tour is great; it is well balanced in terms of time, history and convenience. We were picked up by the tour guide with a driver and a nice car in the morning. The highlight of this tour was our guide Ahmed who took excellent care of us. He is knowledgable, funny, very kind and seems to know everyone! He also went above and beyond of what the tour offered. We did not wait in any lines; he added a 1 hour session at the Lotus garden essences salon to learn and try the many gorgeous smells of Egypt. Then, at the end of the second day, when he found out that we missed to book a flight to Sharm El-Sheikh the next morning, Ahmed organised a private car for us. He stayed in touch with the driver and us until we were booked into our hotel in Sharm. Ahmed is simply amazing!! I highly recommend the tour, and make sure you ask Viator for Ahmed as your guide. Thank you, Ahmed!
