You can’t got to Egypt without visiting these and having Manal makes it even better - An amazing experience and only made better by our fantastic guide Manal, she was an amazing Egyptologist and really helped us to understand the true history of Egypt, not just ancient. The museum was great although you can’t see all of the exhibits at the moment due to the move to the new unopened museum
I don’t think the final stops to perfume and paper is required, it’s a long hot day so shortening the trip would be better
The Nile river cruise was also great

The timeless charm of ancient Egypt - I had wanted to do this trip for a long time and I finally realized this dream in the best possible way thanks to the perfect organization of Memphis Tours and the travel consultant Rabab Taha who followed me in every moment from booking to returning home with professionalism and kindness, making this unique and unforgettable experience. Really very good and very reliable

Wonderful pyramids - A wonderful site, polluted by locals who don't know how much this place needs to be protected!! Do it alone without a guide and at your own pace. You can do everything on foot and eat at laduree opposite the pyramid for less than 50 euros

Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx bucket list - From the moment I was picked up on time as planned at my hotel to the time I was safely dropped off this was a fantastic day, an awesome bucket list experience and it was made so easy by Amr and his driver in a private air-conditioned car. We drove to the museum where Amr got us in quickly skipping the queues and displayed his knowledge of Egyptian history and culture. After a few hours we were on our way through Giza and after a brief stop at a papyrus place we ended up at the pyramids. It was very crowded to get in so we walked a little and again were able to skip some main queues to avoid wait times for seeing the Sphinx and pyramids. A truly magical experience which was made all the better by Amr. Full marks to him for his excellent service, his knowledge and his friendly and pleasant nature. I thoroughly recommend him and this tour. Well worth it.

Mina, the super guide! - We spent 2 full days touring Cairo with Mina. He greeted us on day 1 with a big smile and a small anecdote about his name and thats all it took to break the ice. He has a knack for story telling and in depth knowledge about Egypt’s rich history. All this made our visit to each landmark so memorable.
His amicable personality and helpful attitude won our hearts. Thank you Mina, for making Cairo even more special and taking us to the hidden gems.
Ps. He is great behind the lens too!!

Excellent Tour! - I just completed a day tour of the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, and Egyptian Museum and had an outstanding experience! I’d like to commend my tour guide, Mr. Ahmed Magby, for his courtesy and professionalism. Throughout the entire day, he conveyed his enthusiasm and knowledge of all sites with great care and respect. He always checked in to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying the pace of the tour. I’d highly recommend Egypt Day Tours for hosting your visit at some of Egypt’s most iconic sites!

Pyramids of Giza - Our guide Mina was fantastic. Funny, upbeat, informative and showed us how to get the best photos. We took the 7:00am tour and would recommend, to beat the crowds. Our ticket included entry inside the Great Pyramid and I would recommend doing this. Our driver Mostafa was great, driving amongst the chaotic Cairo traffic.

Mesmerising. - This experience has been the most wonderful time of my life. From the pyramids to the warmth of the people and the professional guides, helpful and caring staff Maro, Ahmed, and their team from Egypt day tours. I would highly recommend this company as they are available 24 hours a day and can and will get back to you within a couple of hours. Nothing was a problem. I thank each and every one for making me feel comfortable and safe at all times, being a solo traveller.
I will be back.
