Full-Day Tour From Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, and Saqqara

Our trip to Egypt has been seamless and great thanks to Jakada Tours Egypt and our guide. Our guide, Mo, is a really friendly and patient person who truly does his very best in helping us get the most out of our trip. He is very flexible in terms of planning, and makes sure that we are able to do anything that we prefer to do. He is very knowledgeable and passionate when he shares about the Egyptian history and heritage. His guidance is whole-hearted and honest too. Thank you, Mo.

We had a wonderful day in Giza! Our guide, Mina, was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. I really liked that we were able to choose where we wanted to spend more time, which made the experience feel personal and relaxed. Since it was just my husband and me, the tour felt private and focused on what we wanted to do. Mina and the driver picked us up from our hotel, which had an incredible view of the pyramids. They look amazing at night. From there, we went straight to the main entrance of the Great Pyramids and began our tour. Mina took care of everything, and we didn’t have to wait in any lines, which was a big plus. We first visited an area that felt like a small museum before taking an electric bus to our first stop. Mina helped us take great pictures and made sure we captured every special moment. I mentioned that I wanted to ride a camel, which wasn’t part of our tour, but Mina made a quick call and made it happen. It was such a fun and memorable experience. Overall, Jakada Tours did an excellent job planning everything, and Mina was fantastic. We had a great time and have already started telling our friends about our tour and stay.

I spent two days with Sayed driving and Muhammad guiding me through the Giza Plateau, the Egyptian Museum, Saqqara, Memphis, and Old Cairo. Sayed could not have done enough for me to ensure I had a safe and comfortable ride through the streets of Cairo. Muhammad is an excellent and enthusiastic guide. He's very personable and couldn't have done enough to make sure my every need was met. He's exceptionally knowledgeable and intellectually curious, as well as quite approachable and honest. I would recommend both of these guys to anyone visiting Egypt. For anyone concerned about the deposit to Jakada via PayPal, it's completely legitimate. I was apprehensive, but they are a good company. There was some confusion about paying the remaining balance, but that was easily sorted out. As a seasoned traveler, I knew what to do, but for those who are not, I encourage you to do a bit of research about using payment cards abroad.
