Giza Private Tours & Local Tour Guides

“Best Tour Guide Ever!”

We had a wonderful experience touring the pyramids with Safa, and we’re so glad we chose to hire a guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable, fun, patient, kind, and, above all, wonderful with our 3-year-old. Our little one needed frequent breaks, and Safa was so patient and thoughtful, finding ways to keep her entertained along the way. She even stayed with our daughter at the ice cream shop so we could go inside the pyramids. I truly can’t say enough good things about her. For any families wondering whether to hire a guide: do it, and choose Safa! As a mom, I know how hard it can be to find someone who is genuinely comfortable working with children, and Safa was exceptional. She also helped us navigate the vendors so we wouldn’t be taken advantage. It was money very well spent, and we’d hire her again in a heartbeat if we return. We’ll be recommending her to all our friends and family visiting Giza. 10/10!

“Guide of the Pyramids with Maryem”

Maryem guided around the pyramids and the sphinx. We are glad we had her as a guide as it helped understand the area and history so much better. It also made it easy to navigate around as the bus routes are not clear and the way to walk to the sphinx is not clear. She speaks good English. Well worth the money.

“Another Incredible Day and a Friendship Made Along the Way!”

Another Incredible Day and a Friendship Made Along the Way! After such a great first day, my mom and I were excited to spend another day exploring Cairo with our guide, and once again, she did not disappoint! We visited the beautiful new Grand Egyptian Museum, where she shared so much knowledge about Egypt’s fascinating history. She also took us to a certified perfume shop, which I really appreciated because I wanted to purchase authentic, good-quality Egyptian perfume oils. It was nice having someone knowledgeable who could guide us toward a reputable place. One of my favorite parts of the day was visiting the local market. She openly admitted that negotiating wasn’t her strong suit, but she had the best time watching my mom and me negotiate with the vendors! We shared so many laughs, and those little moments made the experience even more memorable. What started as a tour guide experience genuinely turned into a friendship. We connected so well that we’re already talking about planning a trip together outside of touring! I truly enjoyed getting to know her, learning about Egypt through her perspective, and sharing these experiences with my mom. She was kind, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and such a pleasure to spend time with. I would absolutely book with her again, but even more than that, I’m grateful that our paths crossed. I came to Egypt looking for a great tour guide and left with a new friend!

Wow :)) That’s honestly one of the best reviews I’ve ever had, and it reminded me why I love doing this job so much. I’m so glad I met you and your mother, and I’m even happier that our tour actually turned into a friendship. We’re already talking about planning a trip together, so I guess this isn’t the last adventure! And that time at the market was definitely one of my favorite parts too! I had so much fun watching you both negotiate, and I took way too many notes on how to do it properly next time. :”D I’m really grateful our paths crossed, and I can’t wait to see where our next adventure takes us.
