“Day tour to saqqara necropolis and giza pyramids, excellent guide, memorable experience”
I write this review for two guides, Sarah who coordinated everything for us from before leaving India to time we left cairo and for Mahmoud aka congo who took us for the actual trip. Sarah is a lovely person, she ensured we had the best itinerary tailored to our interests in the right duration and gave us great advice to make it budget friendly. While guiding another group, she checked on us through the day to make sure it was going good as planned. Thanks Sarah We had a memorable day with Mahmoud.. for the saqqara necropolis and giza pyramids tour. He was quite knowledgeable and explained the importance of each place well. He even took us to get some lovely authentic egyptian perfume and cartoush.. Extremely accommodative to our requests and cheerful, he made the day one to remember for a long time. Highly recommend both Sarah and congo for guided tours in egypt

“Very sweet and nice guide ”
Sarah was very knowledgeable about Caïro and showed us all the sightseeing we had asked for. She told us also many things about daily life in Egypt, very interesting. She is a very sweet person and ready to help in any way. Contact with her before the trip was easy as she was very responsive. She had a good driver who had an excellent new car to drive us around. I would certainly recommend using Sarah as a guide to Cairo.
