Memphis Tours is amazing!
Memphis Tours was amazing!! We had Shaima and Ibrahim to guide us in Luxor, Yaser in Hurghada, and Heba Ezz Eldin in Cairo. Ibrahim is the person who organized the trip, and is apart of the administration team. Shaima was our tour guide for Luxor, her warm personality and kindness was amazing. She was detailed when showing us around Luxor. Yaser was very helpful in Hurghada with organizing! When we got to Cairo we met Hiba. She was super fun and generous. She was very detailed, and explained everything thoroughly.
