Traveller reviews
Excellent day trip to see pyramids at Giza, and then on to Sakkara and Darshur which were less touristy than Giza, so worth seeing if you want a bit more context. We learnt so much from Emad our guide. He was great at explaining facts in a clear way. He was also friendly and helpful, as was our driver. We had a very good lunch too and felt well looked after!
Emad was our guide. He was on time in picking us up and he was extremely informative throughout our tour. He was very friendly and patient when we wanted to take more pictures. Definitely recommend.
Very nice day with our guide Emad Salib. Excellent egyptologue. He is a walking encyclopedia! Emad took us to 3 sights for pyramids. Take the lunch on your tour, it’s very good. We strongly recomand! Thank you for this amazing day Emad!
We were lucky to have the guide Emad Salib for our tour. I’ve booked different guided tours in our trip in Egypt and he was the best one by far. I picked the tour to visit 3 major sites (Giza, Sakkara, Dahshour) in one day even though we had the option to do the tour in 2 days and it was completely doable. We covered everything we wanted to see as well as interesting things we didn’t know about. Emad was key to making it happen without any rush. He knew exactly where to take us to avoid crowds and helped us resolve the issue where I booked tickets for the sites online with the wrong date. If I didn’t have him to talk (negotiate) with the ticket office people, I probably would have needed to buy them again. Pro tip: do not buy the tickets online to save time, the lines are not long in person. Doing 3 major sites is a lot of sightseeing in a day but definitely doable. We did the Giza pyramids first to avoid crowds and heat, with a camel ride in the morning when it was cooler. We had the option to either have lunch or save it for the end of the tour, which we opted for. Next at Sakkara, we visited a noble’s tomb with detailed reliefs, climbed into King Teti’s pyramid, went inside the Step Pyramid, and visited the Serapeum. I highly recommend spending time at Sakkara as it’s not crowded and is more interesting historically than the Giza Pyramids. Lastly, we went to Dahshour to see the Red and Bent Pyramids and did the difficult, but unique climb into the Bent Pyramid. Note: This climb may not be for you if you have mobility issues since it requires going down hunched backwards a steep 80m tunnel. Emad knew the highlights and explained the history and archaeological findings in a way that was both interesting and memorable. He is an extremely honest, hardworking guide (even refunded parking money that we paid when we bought tickets). We spent almost 9h with him where he always put us first. I would 1000% recommend booking this tour with him.
We enjoyed our time with Salib. He is very passionate on his job. He will answer all your questions in details. I would highly suggest you do tours with him.
Definitely recommend this day tour if you are visiting Cairo and planning to see the pyramids then this day tour is a must . Our tour guide Salib was very impressive, the way he explained the rich history of the pyramids and areas really let us learn about these world wonders, Salib was very patient with us and adhered to our needs whilst taking us to all the main sites on this day tour. If you are looking for a day tour to visit the pyramids and learning about Egypt’s rich history then we definitely recommend this day tour especially if you have Salib as your tour guide! 5 stars !
Had a fantastic day, Salib was an excellent guide with so much knowledge and made the experience so enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour to add to your experience in Cairo.
One of those days you will always remember. Starting with the great pyramids of Giza our guide Salib took us on a journey of discovery. His friendly approach and knowledge both of the ancient world of the pharaohs as well as local customs and usage was extensive and made it a day to remember.
