My sons and I thoroughly enjoyed our day with Kerolos seeing the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum. Great knowledge and Kerolos delighted in answering whatever questions we generated ! He couldn’t have been more courteous and helpful .

“Kerolos, a true expert in Egyptology”
Kerolos does his job with passion. And you can really feel it. I really enjoyed our day together, from the Pyramids to the Sphinx to The Egyptian Museum. Kerolos also fulfilled my request to explore fragrances and perfumes by taking me to a shop where I had the best ever perfume boutique experience. Enjoy a hassle-free day in Cairo and learn more about the beautiful Egyptian culture, and how different people shaped this country in the past centuries. And there is no question Kerolos is not prepared to answer. A true expert. Cairo is not easy to drive around, so a special thanks also to our driver who made the whole trip so smooth.
