It was the best tour we’ve ever had. There couldn’t be a better guide than Michael. He took photos for us and was always cheerful and sincere. He absolutely deserves every penny. We would also like to thank our driver, Mr. Muhammed, who even gave us his cardigan when we were cold. Michael and Muhammed are truly amazing people. Thank you so much!

Loved the fact we had a private car with a driver - fantastic driving skills in the madness of Cairo and so polite - we were picked up from our hotel , driven right up to the pyramids , sphinx etc jumped the queues , went to shops of our choice , down to the boat cruise then back to our hotel , absolutely fantastic afternoon/ evening , probably one of the best tours we have ever done , our guide Ahmed was so knowledgeable about all aspects of Egypt and took great care of us . Highly recommended you will not find a better trip than this one , definitely 10 out of 10 , thank you .
