Very friendly and knowledgeable guide, well worth it
It was easy meet up before immigration (with visa they pre-arranged and gave me at immigration), then smooth pick up at Starbucks outside of the arrival hall. Pierre, the local guide was friendly and funny. We toured Giza, workshops of papyrus and perfume oil workshop and a jewelry store, then lunch by the pyramids, GEM, Al-Muizz Street and Khan el Khalili, then dinner by the Nile. He also rearranged the lunch and dinner upon learning that I'm vegetarian. All in all, very productive and pleasant trip.
Excellent communication before the trip and upon arrival. Pierre and the driver were very friendly and knowledgeable. Everything went smoothly. We finished the tour earlier than expected so added a few extra bits on such as a Nile boat ride (at an additional charge). Got back to the airport in plenty of time (arrived at 7am and back to the airport by 3:30pm)
Thank you for your comments . I’m thrilled your experience was a positive one and I look forward to welcome you back, Thanks again. Nada Yehia Quality Assurance Supervisor Ramasside Tours
Pierre is a gentleman and is a wonderful guide with lots of knowledge of the pyramids. He was punctual and addressed all of my wants including choice Shopping locations. All within the 10hr layover window.
I had Pierre as my tour guide, and he was nothing short of amazing! Being a solo female traveler in my early 20s, I was definitely nervous traveling to Egypt, but he made me feel safe, comfortable, and made my trip Amazing! He knew I loved photos so he was my personal photographer, taking 1 million for me! If you go on this trip, I hope you get Pierre as your tour guide!
The whole tour excellent but the amount of tips you are asked if you leave goes to double and the truth about the place and the distance is worth it but if you have to take care of that kind of thing.
I had a long layover in Cairo and had the best time on this tour. Pierre was absolutely incredible. If you want a lot of culture with zero hustle, this is for you. I loved it.
Went where and when we wanted. Guide was knowledgeable and easy to deal with. Was a very good day. Saw the things we wanted to see and omitted others
Mina was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and passionate about what he was sharing. There was a great balance between time with guided explanations and freedom to walk around and take pictures/buy some souvenirs. He also took us to souvenir stores verified by the Egyptian department of Tourism where we were able to buy authentic Egyptian souvenirs.
I organized an 8 hour layover in Cairo. My guide Mani and our driver were fantastic. They picked me up at 6:45AM. Mani is a super knowledgeable, enthusiastic guide with a passion for Egyptology and giving guests an enjoyable, flexible and fun experience. Definitely recommend
