My family was nervous about the chaos of Cairo and the pyramid grounds. We looked online the night before and found Osama’s tour package for a third of the price the hotel offered us. We saw the pyramids, went inside two of them, saw the sphynx, rode camels, went to a great restaurant for lunch and he took tons of amazing photos along the way. The car was convenient and the whole experience was a wonderful, calm day! Instead of being stressed we truly enjoyed Cairo. Thank you Osama!
Very good visit, we loved the discovery of craftsmanship with essential oils and papyrus. During this visit, we particularly enjoyed our guide Joe and Hossam capoo, two very kind, professional and attentive people. I highly recommend this visit!

This was a wonderful private tour! We got picked up at our hotel and then visited the Giza Pyramids. It was a fantastic tour and our guide, Mina had so much great information that he shared with us! After the pyramids, he gave us options to set our own schedule and instead of Memphis, we visited the papyrus museum and the Egyptian museum to see the King Tut exhibit. We had a great time and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!
