Recommended for people who want to go around

Recommended for greedy people who want to go around. We were able to efficiently go around multiple pyramids and ruins. I had a new experience by seeing pyramids other than Giza. The driver, Saeed, was very friendly.

Travelling

We had an incredible time on the Egypt Tour with Sayed mahmoud. From the very start, they were punctual/welcoming/energetic and made us feel included. What really set Sayed mahmoud apart was their deep knowledge of local history / ability to find the best hidden street food. Instead of just reciting facts, they told stories that really brought the place to life. Highlights: • The personal touch: They knew all the best spots to avoid the crowds. • Expertise: Answered every random question we threw at them! • Logistics: The pace was perfect and we never felt rushed. If you’re looking for an authentic and memorable experience, ask for Sayed mahmoud. I’d give them 6 stars if I could!

Safe, fun, and truly memorable

Robert was an amazing tour guide! We felt incredibly safe and comfortable with him. He taught us so much about Cairo, Giza, Egyptian Arabic, the history of the pyramids, and he went out of his way to ensure we had an amazing experience. Also he’s a great photographer!! I would definitely recommend the tour as well as Robert as your guide!
