We had a great experience at the pyramids with Sharif. Pickup was absolutely right on time. As soon as we we're comfortable in the car he began to explain the programme and was very straightforward as to what was included and what was not and never forced us to pay anything extra that we didn't want. Once at the pyramids, he took his time to explain everything and was very happy to answer any questions and take a bunch of photos for us. 100% definitely recommend.
