Had a wonderful day with Mona who was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. The pyramids were obviously a particular high point and although the weather was extremely windy I had a great experience.. would thoroughly recommend. Thanks Mona and Said.

We had a great time through the tour but did feel rushed a few time to get through. Saqqara has so much and is worth spending more time at, Memphis is a single site which may not require so much time.The guide was very knowledgeable as he had been involved with excavations in the past. Note that you will expect to double your costs for tickets for the boat, entry to the tombs if you are not afraid of small place.

We booked our group tours with Jimmy. He was an excellent tour guide who showed us around the pyramids and the churchs.
He is a friendly fun tour guide to be with.
The tour was planned really good. With great transport, safe drivers and wifi.
We went to sakkara first followed by lunch organised by the tour company. We had a variety of meat to vegetarian food which helped as we had a vegetarian person in the group.
Jimmy accomadated us in everyway possible.
After lunch we went to the Giza pyramids. Again great views and a breath taking experiance!
The next day we booked another tour with Jimmy to the coptic city. To see a mix of churchs, mosques and jewish temple. Followed by lunch.
