He was very knowledgeable about the history and construction of the pyramids, he has a talent for speaking multiple languages, he tailored the day to our needs and preferences, and he made sure we were comfortable the entire time.

5.00Our tour guide Zizou was AMAZING!!! I highly recommend him! The nicest, most patient, knowledgable Egyptologist you will have!! He took the absolute BEST pictures of us and was so helpful with bargaining at the market. He made sure we had water and got to the bathroom as an all day tour can be a lot. We had a wonderful time and are so happy we had him as our guide!!

5.00參觀胡夫金字塔是一段非常有趣的經歷。我親眼見到了真正的金字塔，進入其中後，發現內部狹窄而神秘。 此外，我還體驗了騎駱駝的特別經歷。一整群駱駝聚集在金字塔下，場面非常壯觀。 導遊 Zizou 非常優秀，他詳細講解了歷史與故事，並且非常細心地幫助旅客解決問題。
A great experience with a great guide!

5.00The experience was incredibly enjoyable and we were surprised on how much we were able to do and see in the day. Was able to see so many remarkable monuments of history and had lots of opportunities for some stunning photos! Mohamed was an excellent driver and was incredibly knowledgeable on both ancient and modern Egyptian history. He kept us engaged, entertained, and well fed with all the best food spots. We can't recommend him enough and hope to see him again if we ever return to Egypt.
Great experience
