This was 100% the highlight of our trip to Egypt. Mamdouh, our guide, absolutely made our day! He catered the tour directly to us, was able to answer all of our questions, and was so kind throughout the entire day. Our trip would not have been the same without Mamdouh. Although the entrance fees to the pyramids are not included, I would recommend this tour to any of my friends and family that travel to Egypt.Amazing tour, our guide was the best, he helped us with taking nice pictures around the great sites of pyramids. I give this tour a 10/10 for someone who wants to see all of this in just one day.

This was the highlight of our trip to Cairo Egypt. Our tour guide Mimmo was amazing! He did a fantastic job from the beginning to the end of our day tour. He was very knowledgeable about Egyptian history. I have to add that he did outstanding with taking cool and creative photos of my boyfriend and I. It is not everyday that one gets to visit a place like Egypt (especially coming from North America) so it is very important to spend time wisely while visiting. Thank you Mimmo for an awesome experience!
