“Exceptional memorable tour with Safy”

We traveled from the USA to Cairo as a group of eight, including young children and elderly family members (my parents), for a two-day trip. Our main goal was to experience Cairo’s key attractions, with a special focus on camel rides and quad biking. We planned our itinerary with Safy, who proved exceptionally helpful, informative, and flexible. She remained consistently honest, caring, and attentive to our safety throughout the trip, and also arranged reliable airport transportation for us. Safy is sincere, highly knowledgeable, and communicates clearly. Thanks to her guidance, we gained a thorough understanding of every site we visited, and she made sure we were comfortable at all times. Over the two days we explored from morning until late evening, visiting the Pyramids, museums, a traditional village, farmland, mosques, and a bazaar. We also enjoyed camel rides around the Pyramids. She guided us—including our 7-year-old—through the tunnel inside the Bent Pyramid, providing detailed explanations that made it an amazing experience. She also arranged a memorable quad-biking adventure just before sunset, with the Giza Pyramids as a stunning backdrop—something both the adults and children thoroughly enjoyed. Our entire family had a wonderful two-day experience in Cairo under Safy’s expert guidance. She speaks excellent English and possesses an exceptional depth of knowledge about Egypt’s attractions. Most importantly—especially in Cairo—she is genuinely honest. Every member of our group, including the children and the elders, was extremely happy with the tour.

“A great tour with a great guide”

Maryem is an experienced guide, very friendly and extremely flexible in adapting the tour to our preferences and interests. Her explanations matched the level of detail we were looking for, and she adjusted each visit based on our questions and what interested us most. We had an excellent morning and would definitely recommend her!

“2 Day guided tour pyramids and GEM”

We had an absolutely outstanding experience with Bishoy as our guide in Giza and at the Grand Egyptian Museum. On our first day, Bishoy spent around five hours with us exploring the Pyramids of Giza. His knowledge of ancient Egyptian history is exceptional, and he brought the history of the pyramids and their surrounding sites to life in a fascinating and very engaging way. One of the highlights was visiting some lesser-known and hidden tomb chambers that we would never have discovered on our own. He was always happy to answer our questions in detail and clearly has a deep knowledge and passion for Egyptian history and culture. The following day, Bishoy guided us for another five hours through the Grand Egyptian Museum. He selected the highlights from the enormous collection and explained them in their historical and cultural context, giving us a much deeper understanding of the pharaohs, their lives, beliefs, and the development of ancient Egyptian civilization. Bishoy is not only extremely knowledgeable but also very friendly, patient, and pleasant to spend time with. He picked us up from our hotel and brought us back afterwards, making both days completely comfortable and hassle-free. We could not have wished for a better guide. Spending two days with Bishoy added enormously to our experience in Cairo and Giza, and we would book a tour with him again without hesitation. Highly recommended!

Dear Jörn, Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful and detailed review. Your kind words truly mean a lot to me! It was a real pleasure spending these two days with you and sharing my passion for ancient Egyptian history with you. I’m especially happy that you enjoyed not only the famous highlights of the Giza Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, but also the lesser-known places and stories that made our experience a little more special. I’m very grateful for your kind words about my knowledge, patience, and the personal atmosphere of the tours. As a licensed Egyptologist and private guide in Cairo, my goal is always to make history come alive and create a comfortable and memorable experience for my guests, including German-speaking travelers. Thank you again for your trust, your recommendation, and the wonderful time we shared. I sincerely hope to welcome you back to Egypt one day and discover more of its fascinating history together! Warmest regards, Bishoy Gadallah Time Traveller Tours Cairo
