SHERRIF. BEST TOUR GUIDE. - SHERRIF! The greatest of all tour guides.. AUTHENTIC. SHERRIF has a heart the size of the moon and passion for the pyramids greater than any. His knowledge is deep and factual and always down for a discussion. The pyramids were phenomenal but our guide made the whole experience 100 times better

Absolutely 10/10 day - Experience was absolutely amazing, from the airport pick up. Our guide Sherif was 10/10, an amazing tour guide full of all information and could answer all the questions we had, on top of that he was an amazing photographer taking so many great photographs of us with the pyramids. The whole day was a very personalised experience and we both truly felt we left the tour with a new friend. We did the additional sail down the Nile which was 100% worth it too, a gorgeous calming experience on a private sailboat. I would definitely recommend this tour, worth every penny.

A day we will never forgot! Highly recommend! - This trip was AMAZING! We highly recommend! Our welcoming friendly host Sherif (and driver) went above and beyond to give us the best experience of Cairo city, the Egyption Meuseum and the Great Pyramids of Egypt. This was a perfect day, we were well looked after throughout. Our host Sherif is an expert on Egyptian history, his humour and enthusiasm made our trip special. +A day we will never forget, especially thanks to Sherif’s photography skills! Thank you, Emma and Cedri

The best experience - don't hesitate - Amazing experience - definitely worth the price to fly to Cairo and do the private tour. Sherif was one of the best guides we've ever had, hilarious, informative and took great pics! We'll be back for sure.

Extraordinary experience visiting the pyramids, one of the seven wonders of the world. - Our time with the Sharm Club was absolutely amazing, all the way from the airport pickup to end of the adventure. Our guide Sharif (one of the most genuine and nicest people we have met) gave us an experience of a life time. Sharifs great knowledge and explanation of the history in the museum of Egypt was very indulging and very fun. We then had a fantastic boat trip on the river Nile which brought us a lot of peace and amazement of an image coming to life and travelling along the largest river in the world. Our guide then took us to see the pyramids which was an experience of a life time, pictures do not do it justice. Sharif as nice as he is explained the history behind all of the pyramids and guided us through them all. He even went out of the way to take many beautiful pictures of us. We went inside the small pyramid which was a terrific experience. We had a shop at the markets which were around the pyramids and bought some beautiful souvenirs and there were chances to go on camal rides. The whole atmosphere was beautiful and to the end the trip we had a dinner watching the gorgeous sunset and the view of the pyramids. Thank you Sharm Club for a wonderful time and for being so kind. The whole itinerary went as planned and was smooth.

An unforgettable day - We arranged our trip online with confirmation and details provided swiftly. We flew from Hurgada to Cairo where we were met by our tour guide Sherif and driver Izra. Sherif was friendly, personable and extremely knowledgeable as he imparted information throughout the day. First stop the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. This place is unbelievable and is certainly one you could spend at least a whole day in. We then went straight into Giza where my husband and daughter decided to enter the The Great Pyramid - this was priced at 600le gif an adult and 300le for a child and incurred a long narrow walk to an empty tomb. Despite there being nothing to see, for my husband who is passionate about Egyptology this certainly ticked a box for him. Be warned, it is very humid and if you don’t like tight spaces or are claustrophobic maybe think again. As we explored the site Sherif took many photos of us and my, what brilliant pictures they have turned out. We ate late (our choice) at a restaurant that overlooked Giza and were in absolute awe to watch the sun set over the pyramids. The food in the restaurant (we had the grilled chicken and rice) was very nice and was served with a selection of flatbreads and dips. Sherif took us to an Egyptian cotton and papyrus shop too. The whole day, although very tiring, was magnificent from start to finish. Sherif and Izra worked hard to ensure we had the perfect day which flowed seamlessly. We would have no hesitation in booking any future excursions through Sharm Club again.

Excellent Day Trip - Flew from Sharm to Cairo and was met by Sharif, our guide for the day. Sharif was really welcoming and knowledgeable and we learnt so much. We went to the Mohammad Ali Mosque, on a boat trip on the Nile, had a good look around the Egyptian Museum, then went to the Pyramids and Sphinx. Sharif also knew the best locations to take photos. I cannot recommend this trip highly enough.

Great day with Sherif at the Pyramids - Stunning day out, fascinating visit to the Cairo Museum (could have spent all day there, amazing place). Delicious lunch overlooking the pyramids. Then one to the main event, the pyramids are everything you would hope for.

Brilliant (with a few negatives) - 27/7/23 Cairo from Hurghada by Plane. Family of 4 (children aged 12 & 10) Guide - Sherif Was sent information from Sharm Club via WhatsApp a few days before trip so we were fully aware of the plan. Collected promptly from our hotel and taken to Hurghada Airport. Comfortable journey to Cairo. Met by Sherif and the driver at Cairo and given a brief plan for the day. Slightly awkward when it came to paying the remainder of the trip when we were asked for more than we should have been. Trip cost £682 Transfer cost £25 Deposit paid £400 Final payment due £307 However they were asking for £335 and this seemed to be an issue for a good few hours whilst Sherif was trying to sort it out. This made us feel really uncomfortable. We went straight to Cairo Egyptology Museum - this place is fantastic! Could have spent all day in there. So much to see/read/digest. The Tutankhamun room is so impressive. Large gift shop if you did want to treat yourself. We were offered a Nile Cruise but we had only done this at Luxor a few days earlier so declined. We also declined to visit a Papyrus shop and Alabaster shop as again we had done these in Luxor. Went for lunch at a fantastic restaurant which overlooked the Pyramids. Such a fabulous view! Drinks not included in the excursion price but they were reasonably priced for a restaurant in Cairo. From here we went straight to get up close with the Sphynx and Pyramids. It is very hot, so remember to take lots of water with you, hat, umbrella and cover up as much as possible. Wear decent shoes as it's very sandy and lots of walking to do. You have the option of paying to go inside the Great Pyramid and climb up. There is also the option of going inside one of the Queen Pyramids for free. Inside the Pyramids it is very humid, if you do not like enclosed spaces I would avoid this. After we have done at the Pyramids - they are such a fantastic sight - you than have the option of going to a souvenir shop in Cairo. We were taken back to the airport and awaited out flight back to Hurghada. Sadly Sharm Club gave us and Sherif the incorrect time for our return flight so we ended up sitting in the airport for 4 hours. When contacted about this, they didn't even acknowledge it. Quiet annoying as we could have spent some more time in Cairo. Returned to Hurghada and met by our driver to take us back to out hotel (approx 1-1.5 hours from airport). After about 30-40 minutes I was very concerned as the driver was clearly overtired and swerving over the road. Hitting himself to stay awake. Fiddling with the radio. Opening and closing the window. I complained to Sharm Club to which they sent an apology and offered us a discount on any further booking - I politely declined. Trip was brilliant but marred by the money issue and the risky driver. I wouldn't book with this company again purely based on them.
