Hend and her team made this dream a reality!

I’ll start by saying this, anytime I return to Egypt, I will definitely be using Nefert Tours again. Our drivers, Sameh and Mohammed, were punctual, professional, kind, and pleasant throughout the day. They drove safely, made us feel completely comfortable, and even gave my wife and me extra time to finish breakfast before starting our tour. Then we met our guide, Hend, and she was exceptional from the very beginning. Her knowledge of Egyptian history and culture was remarkable. She knew everything from the history of the pyramids down to their measurements and dimensions, while also knowing the best way to experience each pyramid and the Sphinx. She even guided us to the best spots and angles for photographs. The included camel ride was breathtaking and one of those experiences that words and pictures simply cannot capture. After exploring the pyramids and Sphinx, Hend and our driver took us for a traditional Egyptian lunch, which was absolutely delicious. What really shows how impressed we were with Hend is what happened next. We had originally booked her only for the pyramids and Sphinx. We already had separate tickets for the Grand Egyptian Museum that afternoon and planned to explore it on our own. But after spending the morning with Hend and seeing how knowledgeable and engaging she was, we changed our plans on the spot and upgraded our tour so she could guide us through the museum as well. That was one of the best decisions we made all day. Hend’s knowledge inside the Grand Egyptian Museum was incredible. Rather than simply looking at artifacts, we were able to understand the history, meaning, and stories behind what we were seeing. Her explanations brought the museum to life and transformed what would have been a self guided visit into a truly unforgettable experience. Throughout the day, we also stopped at several shops where we could learn about local products and optionally purchase gifts and souvenirs, with no pressure or obligation. From beginning to end, Nefert Tours far exceeded our expectations. The safe and comfortable transportation, professionalism, hospitality, organization, and especially Hend’s extraordinary knowledge made this one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Egypt. I cannot recommend Nefert Tours highly enough. Hend was truly outstanding, and Sameh and Mohammed made sure we were safe, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the day. If you’re visiting Giza and want more than just a sightseeing tour, if you want an experience that brings Egypt’s incredible history to life, book with Nefert Tours and ask for Hend. You will be glad you did. As for us, whenever we return to Egypt, Nefert Tours will be our first call.

Cairo

We had such an amazing experience with these two guys Sameh and Abdul in Cairo! They were incredibly accommodating and made sure we got to see everything we wanted while also giving us some awesome local recommendations we never would have found on our own. We truly felt like we were experiencing Cairo with locals rather than just visiting as tourists. They always made us feel comfortable and safe, and they were extremely kind, friendly, and so much fun to be around. We genuinely enjoyed their company and had lots of laughs along the way. They made our time in Cairo even more memorable! I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Cairo who wants a fun, authentic, and personalized experience. Thank you both for taking such great care of us and showing us the best of your city! 🇪🇬❤️
