We had an amazing time on our tour with Aziza! She made the day such a delight and she was full of great knowledge. I would highly recommend doing this tour, and spending the more time at Saqqara like we did.
This encounter was very remarkable! Since childhood, I have had a strong desire to see the pyramids, and I am pleased to report that they did not disappoint me in the slightest. The person that led us for the day was Jemmy, and she was exceptional. She has a remarkable depth of knowledge, exhibited a warm and kind demeanor, and proved to be an excellent companion for the whole day. Once we depleted our water supply, she promptly stopped at a vendor and purchased more water for all of us without seeking permission. We appreciate your efforts in making our vacation exceptional, Jemmy!
We toured Giza, Saqqara, Memphis, Alexandria, including a quick stop by the library, plus the Islamic center and Coptic centers in Cairo. AND the National Museum…on the first legs of a 2-week tour throughout Egypt. Egypt Portal Tours delivered! I especially commend our guide for this portion of the tour: Hussein Elgabry. He was a delightful personality, attentive and easygoing, who took care to make us feel welcome, in addition to having answers to the gazillion questions we raised.He was the perfect person for our family group on the first leg of our adventure. Highly recommended!
It was an amazing experience to tour the Giza Pyramids and Saqqara, and Memphis in Cairo, Egypt utilizing Egypt Tours Club. Youssa our tour guide was knowledgeable and ensured all our questions were answered.
Amazing guide! Took great care of our group of 5 . 10/10! Very informative. I would definitely recommend!
Our tour guide, Youssa with Egypt Tour Club, was amazing! He was very detailed and knowledgeable when it came to giving us our tour around the city and during the actual excursion. It was a smooth process when it came to picking and dropping off, if you’re considering booking with this company…. Go for it, you will not be disappointed.
Perfect tour of the Pyramids, Saqqara, and Memphis for a family! Our family of two adults and four children (12, 10, 6, 2 yrs) thoroughly enjoyed this tour with Mohamed thru Egypt Tours Club! It included all the sights and some amazing local stops along the way. We added the camel rides at Giza which was such a fun experience for the kids and our family! We have some absolutely amazing pictures and memories. Mohamed and our driver were really great, patient, and knowledgeable. We ended up booking an additional tour the next day with the same company! We’re very pleased and would encourage any family to take this trip!
We had a great time visiting Saqqara, Memphis and the pyramids all thanks to our guide Ibrahim. He was very knowledgeable and helpful, giving us plenty of information about the history of Egypt, making sure we weren't overwhelmed by sellers and showing us the best picture spots. The lunch that had been set up for us was delicious and in a cool place. The guide and driver wore mask and constantly sanitized their hands and ours, making us feel very safe Covid-wise. Highly recommend and would definitely book Ibrahim for another trip!

We took this outing to Saqqara and Memphis with driver Mohamed Ali and tour guide Reham Shawky and we found it well worth the extra expense to have a very well informed guide who went out of her way to help us. We were interested in trying some tameyya and she stopped and got us some at a local shop and it was fabulous and fresh! I would recommend this tour with Memphis tours for families with teens.
