“A Wonderful Day Of Exploring Old Egypt With An Excellent Guide”
This tour was everything we hoped it would be. Our private guide Mina customized our day so that we got to see all of the major sites in the ancient area of Saqquara without rushing us and giving us ample time for photos and even an excellent lunch. We started our day at the ancient Saqquara archeological site where Mina gave us a briefing on the history of the site as it pertains to the overall Pharoanic history of Egypt. He then led us on a private tour of the Step Pyramid, including its underground rock-cut tomb, plus several other tombs in the area that were even more spectacular than the pyramid itself. Following that we headed for the site I most wanted to see--the Serepeum where the Old Dynasty Egyptians entombed their sacred bulls. It is truly amazing to see the 100 ton sarcophoguses in this huge underground mausoleum, and it is seldom on most commercially available tours. After that, it was on to Memphis where Mina gave us an overview of the world's largest statue of Ramses II, plus many other ancient wonders of this city. After this tour, at our request, Mina arranged a lavish Egyptian lunch (at a very reasonable charge) at a beautiful restaurant en route. It was the perfect ending to a perfect day. We are both older gentlemen with some mobility issues, and Mina was very careful in making sure we understood the limitations of the tight spaces the tombs challenged us with. (This is a limitation of the tour as some passageways are only about four feet tall and require much bending over and care to avoid the rock ceiling. I would definitely request Mina and his driver for this tour. Mina is a trained Egyptologist, and he offered many insights that a lesser guide could not have known.

Waleed E.
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re very pleased to hear that your day exploring Saqqara, the Serapeum, and Memphis exceeded expectations and that Mina was able to tailor the experience to your pace and interests. He takes great pride in combining deep Egyptological knowledge with a careful, attentive guiding style—especially for guests who appreciate both historical depth and a comfortable, unhurried visit. It’s also great to know the lunch arrangement worked well and helped round off the day nicely. We always aim to balance the major highlights with meaningful, less-crowded sites and flexible stops so guests can enjoy the experience fully without feeling rushed. We truly appreciate your recommendation of Mina and your trust in us for your visit to Egypt. We hope to welcome you again for another discovery in the future. Waleed. Forever Egypt tours.

“Family Trip to Egypt 2026”
Our experience in Egypt with a private tour guide and driver was exceptional! Everything was organized, well planned and easy from start to finish. We traveled with our kids ages 9yrs and 11yrs and they also had a great time and were fully engaged with the tours and historical information. Our itinerary was over 2 and a half days in Cairo and included the Pyramids/Sphinx, Khan El Khalili, the Grand Egyptian Museum and the Civilization Museum, and also other quick stops to the spice market, perfume shop and papyrus making exhibit which were all fascinating. We never felt rushed, pressured or forced into buying anything, so it was always light and fun. Also, our guide took the best family photos for us, as they new all the best spots/angles to get the perfect shots! Also, when we needed to change the itinerary a bit, based on our kids energy level, etc, it was easily accommodated which was nice. We went on to have a 2 day stop in Luxor, and again, our guide/driver, made us feel well taken care of, even going their way for special requests (our kids wanted to try pure sugar cane and our guide took his time find it for us). Overall, a very lovely and memorable family trip to Egypt! Five Stars!

Your kind words about the guiding, photography, and overall care mean a lot to the whole team, and we’ll be sure to pass them on. It was a real pleasure hosting your family, and we hope to welcome you again in Egypt in the future for even more unforgettable experiences. Warm regards, Waleed Forever Egypt Tours
