Amazing day in an amazing place! Menna was not only very knowledgeable of the history of ancient Egypt, but also very passionate too. She did not rush me at all and was very easy going about what I wanted to see or do. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide! On top of all that the transport was comfortable and punctual so I’d recommend this to anyone who’s planning to see the pyramids!

Amany, was an exceptional tour guide. She was friendly , knowledgeable , kind, respectful and patient. From the start of the trip we were greeted warmly and supplied with refreshments. Transportation was smooth and equipped with AC ( beating the Egyptian heat). The way she made sure we understood everything we were told, had opportunities to take pictures (p.s She is a brilliant photographer) and explore the area was beyond what we expected. I would 10/10 recommend.
