Traveller reviews
The tour was as advertised and Salma explained the sites well. I would book more tours with her.
Roaa was a knowledgeable and friendly guide for the half day. She contacted us the day before and turned up exactly on time. We were very glad that we didn’t have to worry about getting taxis, what to look or where to go at so it was relaxed as well as really interesting. These attractions are more out of the way and less organised than Giza or the GEM so happy we had a car and guide. If you’re short of time and been to the GEM then Memphis is the one to miss out on.
Guide contacted us the day before and picked us up from our hotel on time. We had been to Giza / Citadel / GEM by ourselves but really happy that we had a tour and driver as these locations are more remote, probably very sketchy with uber and much harder to get a real understanding without a guide. Our guide, Roaa was very knowledgeable, friendly and cheerfully answered my many questions. Also great having a private tour as the coach tours are large for the tombs and move slowly given the multiple sites. Very relaxed, informative and thoroughly recommend.
Yemani was the best guide! Very knowledgeable and accommodating. He made sure our experience was personalized and fun at every stop. Would highly recommend booking him as your guide!
What a great day. A nice alternative to the Grand pyramids of Giza. We started the tour at Saqqara, it was lovely to hear from my guide Yemani all about the history, especially about the running around the area. I was able to enter some of pyramids and see the amazing hieroglyphics. Next stop, Dashur. Now this was a real experience entering the pyramids, complete with bats! I'll be super fit after this experience. We saw Rameses II at Memphis, then off gor a bit of shopping and a lovely buffet for lunch. Yemeni was very knowledgeable and passionate. Being a solo traveller he took lots of photos to help me document my day, together with Paddington my travel companion! I would thoroughly recommend this trip!
Salma was amazing. Love the tour and her company. She was very acknowledge and polite . I will love to take a tour with her again. Thank you so much.
Lovely tour that is a lot less crowded than the big name places like Giza and Luxor. My guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely recommend
Your guide was very informative and helpful. Learnt a lot from this guide Roaa was very gracious and pleasant to listen to
