A perfect day

Heba is an excellent guide. She is very experienced and takes care of her customers. The tour was well organized and the driver mde it’s best to manage the challenging traffic here. Both complexes are worth to visit, even if you g e seen the Gizeh plateau and the GEM already. I can highly recommend the program! But as usual some promo stops are included too. But no pressure to attend or even buy something. All in all a perfect day.

Amazing!

Shady and Ehab were so nice! They picked me up from my hotel and drove me to Sakkara, Memphis and Dashur. Ehab gave me a lot of information about Egypt, history and guide me through all those beautiful places! Shady was so nice too, he put Arabic music for me and also some Spanish music!
