Had an amazing day with guide Ayman Gabry and driver Hamda. They were waiting at the airport at 5:30am and we went right to the pyramids. It was almost completely empty which was great. Ayman was a wealth of knowledge and great photographer. Had a great camel ride as well. We went through the Egyptian museum and highly recommend the mummy room. Had a great lunch at Onion Rings. Then we toured through old Cairo and saw the hanging church, the cavern church and a synogogue. Finally since I had time to kill before my flight, they took me on a dinner cruise which was not prebooked and they stayed on a few hours after my original booking time. Great day and great city!

My guide was Mohamed Goda, a very polite and knowledgeable man, To start, he waited for me nearly 2 hours at the airport and during the whole tour he provided me with very good information about ancient AND current egypt. The tour captured all the promised viewpoints and they even offered me a camelride. As the layover was quite short, the made sure I was back at the airport on time. A perfect tour for layovers and a perfect guide. If you book this tour, ask for Mohamed Goda!
