We were able to book this tour the night before and guide Ahmed and driver George did a great job. We were able to see all of the sights we wanted to see efficiently and Ahmed took lots of great photos of us. We were able to request to see additional tombs at the Sakkara site and that was well worth it - so if there is something you want to see let them know!

This was easily one of the best days of my life. I got to see so much during the day. It went much longer than was planned because we got to see so many things and everything was explained in great detail so I learned so many new things. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helped us understand everything we saw. It was just myself and my uncle so it was very personal/personalized. This is very much worth your money. Please do yourself a favor and book this experience with most wonderful and kind Egyptian drivers and guide!

Great tour. We booked the vip tour which included entrance fees, but had to pay again for the entrance fee and got the money back in cash. Knowledgable guide and fun. Good driver. If you decide to go inside the bent pyramid be aware it is hard work (a lot more so than the Giza pyramids). Worth half a day of anyone’s time.

I was personally escorted to Dashur Red and Bent Pyramids, Memphis and Saqqara by driver John. The service was exceptional, very polite and professional, he listened to all my special requests as well as provided his own specialized local Egyptian knowledge. Would highly recommend and use him again in the future, great service and very friendly.
