Private Day Tour of Saqqara and Quad Bike.

To say the adventure was amazing is an understatement. Our tour guide/ friend was great. He spoke great English and made sure we were well taken care of. His knowledge of the history and culture was awesome. He didn’t push us to do anything we didn’t desire and he kept the Gypsies at bay. He took wonderful photos and just made the day very calming and full of fun. I will definitely look him up on my next visit in hopes that he is still available. Great time!! We left his picture below!

Fantastic experience

Me and my husband had an amazing experience with our tour guide Mr Mustafa. He took us to visit king Titis tomb and the step pyrimids. The tour included water and a very delecious lunch! We then went onto visit two different musseums on our way to the quad bikes. We learnt how the first ever hand made paper was made and also how to make hand made carpets, very interesting to see how the culture still continues to shine through thousands of years with many locals making carpets and paper by hand. We rode the quads for an hour and half, the quads were not in the best conditions but they still did the job! Was thrilling to be able to drive through the sandy desert and around the breathtaking pyrimids. Tour guides were great in showing us the best tracks and routes and even took us to a traditional hutt in the desert were we met some locals and enjoyed some beverages whilst overlooking the beautiful pyrimids. This trip has honestly been one of the best experiences me and my husband have had togeather and we will always remember it! I highly recommed doing this trip, ask for Mr Mustafa he is the best tour guide ive came across, very experienced and kind.

<p>Saqqara is rich with the history of the Old Kingdom and it was really interesting to see some of the tombs. I would advise reading up on some of the tombs before going so you can really appreciate what you see. Taking pictures may end up costing you so do find out if it's OK beforehand. </p> <p>The quad bike adventure was really enjoyable the view of the pyramids while riding through the desert was great. The desert is really rocky so don't expect to be able to speed through but it's still a really good time. </p> <p>The tour guides were very friendly, helpful and informative and with wifi available in the minivan, there wasn't much else to ask for.</p>
