5.00Hussam was the best guide! Absolutely worth it to go with a guide when you visit the pyramids. He is great with kids and is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history. Fantastic photographer, too! You won’t regret it! 6 stars if I could!
A great guide and tour.

5.00The family enjoyed a fabulous morning tour with our guide Ibrahim. We had a tight schedule and he timed everything perfectly steering us skilfully through the history and crowds around this amazing site. He guided us to ideal locations for photographs and was fluent, flexible and engaging. Everyone had a great time. Highly recommended. The Whittakers
Amazing Tour Guide & Driver To The Pyramids

5.00Our tour guide, Ola, gave us amazing insight/education/knowledge into the Pyramids and grounds surrounding the pyramids. From the moment, Ola & Sameh (who is hands down the best driver in Egypt :) picked us up from the hotel - we felt like family :). Travelling with two toddlers (ages 4 & 5) made it feel like easy with them as tour guide and driver around a half day trip to the Pyramids. If your ever looking for the best tour guide and driver in Egypt, look nowhere else! We are still in love with our papyrus artwork as well that we picked up after visiting the pyramids with them.

5.00We had an incredible time exploring the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx with our personal guide, Ali. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel, the experience was seamless, well-organized, and fun. Ali is not only punctual and professional, but also incredibly knowledgeable. As we made our way to the Giza Plateau, he gave us fascinating insights into the history of the pyramids and ancient Egyptian culture, all explained in an engaging and easy-to-understand way. Once on site, Ali took care of everything—from navigating the crowds to helping us get the best photo spots. His storytelling really brought the monuments to life, and his passion for Egypt’s history was infectious. This tour was the highlight of our trip and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. If you’re visiting Cairo and want a stress-free, memorable visit to the pyramids, we highly recommend booking with Ali!

5.00It was a great experience learning about the pyramids and their role in the history and culture of Egypt. Hussam was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable and passionate about the topic, as well as very thoughtful, patient, and accommodating to our needs. He waited for us to visit the tomb inside the Great Pyramid and to catch our breath after the climb. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt. I learned a lot! :)
