Perfect Day Exploring Cairo and Giza with Mimo and Adel. - Fantastic Day visting Cairo, Giza, and the Nile. A private tour and guide is essential to get the most out of your time. Driving all across the city and fast access to attractions. Very informative from an expert Egyptologist of over 20 years experience. Also, your driver may be Adel, who is a gentleman and minds your belongings while your hands are free to climb the pyramids, get on a camel, and explore the museum, not to mention his expert driving skills which is needed here. Also, a light lunch was perfect to keep us going. You can stop off for gifts too if you wish at some shops. The Mosque was beautiful and respectfully done. We finished off our day for a relaxing Felucca trip (boat) by expert boatmen on the Nile. It is an experience of a lifetime with the perfect guide and driver, a must do if you want to experience real history and culture that Egypt has to offer.

Main attractions with a trip along the Nile in one day - I advise to visit this private tour. It is possible visit not only the Pyramids and the Museum, but also the Mosque, as well as ride along the Nile River. A camel ride, a delicious lunch and a visit to souvenir shops are also included. The guide Mimo has good English, he is a real professional. Moreover, Mimo offers various positions for taking best photos. Thanks for the good time!

Big thanks to Mimo and Yasin! - Mimo and Yasin were super nice, professional, worthy of trust. We could experience whole icons of Egypt Cairo in a day, from pyramids to Tutankhamun’s golden mask, while leaving us the room to decide which activities to do. Every itinerary was smooth and unique.

You won’t regret this! Best tour itinerary and experience guide! - Mimo (the tour guide) and Yasin (driver) were lovely, respectful and very knowledgable. You can’t find a better & patient driver in this mad traffic and the bus was very comfortable and spacious which was needed for a full day tour. The tour had the best mix of everything. Extra special was the additional mosque visit and relaxing cruise ending the tour with on the river Nile. He even made extra efforts to find my designer glasses I forgot at the restaurant we had lunch stop at and in which he found and returned back to me. Definitely recommend! Atena & Adam
