We absolutely loved our Giza Pyramid and Camel Ride Tour with Ahmed and driver Mohsen. The two of them are a dynamite duo. Ahmed is so professional but at the same time so down to earth and friendly. Right away you feel comfortable being around him and he did such a great job with our 10 year old son. His level of knowledge is amazing! Granted he received both his under grad and Master’s degree in Ancient Egyptian history. It was so unfortunate that we had such a short time to spend with him. We could have spent weeks with him at the Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum. When we come back we will without a doubt seek out Ahmed. Egypt is a beautiful place but it‘s true gems are it’s People like Ahmed and Mohsen. We will miss them. One more thing. Ahmed is a great a great picture taker. Here‘s a few he took with my IPhone. I got a kick out of him taking selfies of himself and us.Prof1794

I really enjoyed this tour, I loved that it was private, it meant I could ask as many questions as possible and really get the guides full attention. My guide was called Dalia and she did a great job, i thoroughly enjoyed myself and I would highly recommend!

Magnifique excursion en compagnie de notre guide, Sherif, très sympatique. Organisation extraordinaire. Nous avons beaucoup appris sur l'Egypte et son histoire. Il nous a fait découvrir des entreprises locales et artisanales (papyrus, cartouches). Il nous a amené à de magnifiques spots pour les photos et nous avons pu voir des monuments à couper le souffle. Ballade en dromadaire amusante et qui laisse un bon souvenir. Restaurant traditionnel savoureux. Nous conseillons vivement cette excursion avec ses paysages et monuments magnifiques au coeur de l'histoire egyptienne.josefarro

Uno de mis sueños siempre fue ir a Egipto y Memphis tours superó toda expectativa. Un viaje de 11 días que logro enamorarme de Egipto, de su gente, de sus ojos, de su calidad humana, historia, cultura y tradiciones. Mohamed Zidan, nuestro coordinador general, organizó todo de una manera tan eficiente que nosotros lo único que hicimos fue disfrutar, además que nunca le falto una sonrisa. Yehia El Gezawy, nuestro guía durante el crucero por el Nilo, además de cautivarnos con su profundo y apasionante conocimiento, hizo de la nuestra una experiencia muy divertida. Mohamed Said Elgannam, nuestro guía en El Cairo, no nos dejo opción de no disfrutar de las majestuosas pirámides de Giza y sus camellos por el desierto. Con su profundo conocimiento transformó el Museo de Egipto en una faraónica experiencia. El conductor Abd El Ghaly le puso el toque especial mientras transitábamos por las caóticas vías de El Cairo. Sin duda elegiría Memphis otra vez.
