Hello! I just finished a trip to Cairo Egypt in November. I traveled from Cairo airport to Giza for a few days, then headed to Luxor via air then back to Cairo. My trip was amazing! The beauty and the culture of the people are to die for. The pyramids were AMAZING! I stayed in Giza and was able to view the pyramids from my window. From camel riding to horseback riding to horse and cart ride was spectacular. I visited old Cairo and its many temples. I visited the outdoor bazars which are many. In Luxor I visited Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Valley of the Kings, went on a Felucca ( boat), traveled by train, planes and automobiles! Absolutely stunning and a rich experience. I want to shout out my amazing, resourceful and knowledgeable tour guide Mayor Meme tours( hit him up on Facebook and IG) for world star accommodations. He was with me the entire time. I told him what I wanted what my budget was and he had everything planned upon my arrival! Mayor Meme stopped any nothing short of amazing when it came to his services.

Pyramids and Unforgettable sights. I enjoyed being in the 2nd largest pyramid that was practically empty, and beautiful. The guide/driver were polite and kind, and I even got to do ATV riding outside the deserts with the pyramids in the background. I visited the museum of antiquities, and even enjoyed a stop by their tourist gift store. Very polite, with a smile, and I'm glad my short stay in Cairo was a nice one.One of the best magical tour.
