Mohamed was a terrific guide and Essam was a terrific driver! We had a great time and were very well taken care of. Mohamed was extremely knowledgeable and adapted our tour and the info he shared based on what we had already learned on previous days, and knew the answers to all our questions.
Would highly recommend!

This was the first time I booked a tour on Trip Advisor and our first time in Egypt! Having spent the previous day on our own visiting the Giza plateau (amazing as it was) we realised you definitly need a guide with you! If anything just to prevent being constantly hassled! As Dahshur and Saqqara are a fair drive away we arranged this short tour and were blown away by the experience!
Our tour guide was Hosni who kept in touch before the day to make sure we were all set and picked us up from the hotel in the morning. Both Hosni and the driver were very friendly and welcoming and made us feel relaxed throughout the tour.
We visited Saqqara first, checking out the step pyramid of Djoser, then visited the pyramid of Unas (home of the pyramid texts) and then visited the tomb of Princess Idut.
Then we headed to the Serapeum - Not part of the scheduled tour but we requested to visit this site and would highly recommend it!
Then we headed to a carpet school to see how traditional egyptain rugs are made (an optional stop as we had time).
After that we went to the Bent pyramid and the Red pyramid in Dahshur. We also decided to go inside both pyramids (be warned, the bent pyramid is the most difficult to enter!)
We originally planned to skip visiting Memphis, in order to spend more time at the other sites, however Hosni was keen for us to see the old capital and managed to show us the main parts briefly - which we were very grateful for!
After the tour had finished we explained we were planning on visiting the GEM and we asked if it was possible for them to drop us off there (another 10min drive from our hotel) and they were happy to do that!
Hosni was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable about all the history at the sites we visited and also telling us about local culture when we were driving.
Hosni and the driver also arranged a customised tour for us the next day to visit 2 museums and airport transfers.
I would highly recommend Deluxe Travel Egypt and this tour specifically. You can tailor it to which sites you want to spend more time in and also any extras that are not listed!
We plan on going back to Egypt to visit other sites and will book a tour with this company (hopefully with Hosni) again!
