5.00We booked a private tour my sister and I.we wanted to see the pyramids and museum. We were collected from hotel at 4.00am we flew no sooner did we take off we were descending. About 45 mins flight We had a private car for the day from airport to to our stops. It was catered for what we wanted to do . We had wanted to go to Mac Donald for lunch but there were closed so we did KFC instead . The pyramids were fantastic better then I remembered . Alot of improvement with bus parks restaurants proper raised walking paths. They seemed to have stopped all the hawkers trying to sell there wears they are all in a designated place and you can chose to walk and look and but or not. I have always used zizo Sharm life for over 20 years as found very helpful and professional. Our guide Osama was brilliant very knowledgeable he seem to know exactly what we wanted to look at and show us the best ,very safe with him and couldn't do enough for us. We had finished earlier we've seen the new museum fantastic well worth a trip and we didn't realize that you needed to go to another museum to see the artifacts and the mummies so he arranged for us to do that because which was so pleased we did it. We then cut out journey back to the airport which takes about an hour each way and arrive back at our hotel very tired.

5.00Of all the tours available to book, this one came highly recommended by 100% of past guests — and now we completely understand why! We had an incredible experience with Abdelrahman as our private tour guide. From start to finish, everything was seamless and perfectly organized. He explained the history in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand, bringing each site to life with fascinating details and stories. Abdelrahman guided us efficiently from one location to the next, making sure we saw all the highlights while still feeling relaxed and unhurried. His professionalism, knowledge, and warm personality truly made our experience unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching experience!

5.00We had a fantastic day with Osama, visiting the Giza plateau, the Sphinx and a perfume shop. We were amazed by his punctuality, detailed explanations about the pyramids, absolutely amazing photography skills, and flexibility when adjusting to our needs such as having kunafa! Everything went smoothly and we agreed that this tour with Osama is one of the best we’ve had!

5.00Osama is the best guide you can ask for!! He is punctual, excellent at communication, and will cater to whatever your group wants. If you want more time at a certain pyramid or spot he will give and if you’re ready to move on he’s ready to go! He’s also an EXCELLENT photographer!!!! Ladies he knows ALL the IG ready spots and he knows his angles, and how to direct you to get the best photos. If you want nice photos from your trip, you MUST ask for Osama hands down. He is kind, his English is excellent, his knowledge of the pyramids and history is top notch. Could not have asked for a better experience.
What an experience with forever Egypt tours

5.00We had an exceptional tour to Saqqara Pyramids and Memphis with Forget Egypt Tours, and it was one of the most enriching experiences of our time in Egypt. Our guide and tour operator, Waleed, was outstanding. His depth of knowledge about ancient Egyptian history—especially the Old Kingdom—was remarkable. At Saqqara, he brought the Step Pyramid of Djoser and the surrounding tombs to life with clear, engaging explanations that made the site truly meaningful rather than just impressive to look at. In Memphis, Waleed explained the importance of Egypt’s first capital in a way that connected everything we had seen, giving real context to the colossal statue of Ramses II and the open-air museum. His storytelling, historical insight, and ability to answer every question made the experience both educational and enjoyable. The tour was perfectly organized and paced, allowing plenty of time at each site without ever feeling rushed. Transportation was comfortable, communication was excellent, and every detail was handled professionally. The entire day felt private, relaxed, and thoughtfully planned. If you want a high-quality, stress-free, and deeply informative tour of Saqqara and Memphis, I highly recommend Forget Egypt Tours, and especially Waleed. This tour exceeded our expectations and was a true highlight of our visit to Egypt.
The best of Egypt!

5.00I was happy to go around the main pyramids. The guides I won were kind, and I was glad that they didn't force me to go to the souvenir shop, so I could use my time meaningfully.
