Review of Our Cairo Birthday Tour

Sunday, December 7 – Pyramids of Giza & Sphinx Starting at a comfortable 11:00 AM, our group was greeted by Hussein, a professional German-speaking guide who brought the ancient wonders to life with fascinating stories and historical context. Standing before the Pyramids and the Sphinx was awe-inspiring, and the guide’s ability to explain both the grandeur and the cultural significance made the visit unforgettable. The pacing was perfect—no rush, just enough time to soak in the atmosphere and capture memorable photos. Monday, December 8 – Grand Egyptian Museum Private Tour The highlight of the second day was the private tour of the Grand Egyptian Museum. Beginning again at 11:00 AM, we had the luxury of exploring Tutankhamun’s treasures and countless other artifacts without feeling overwhelmed. The guide’s expertise and clear explanations in German made the exhibits accessible and engaging. The museum itself is a marvel of modern architecture, and the private setting allowed us to enjoy the treasures at our own pace. Tuesday, December 9 – Birthday Celebration & Sound & Light Show Due to a Government Event the show was cancelled short notice, but Ahmed provided several alternatives - we ultimately decided to go Freestyle and chose the Le Petit Chef dinner while transportation was managed by the agency. All in all a very good decision, everybody enjoyed themselves. Overall Impression This three-day program was exceptionally well-organized, balancing sightseeing with relaxation. The German-speaking guide added immense value, ensuring everyone felt included and informed. The itinerary struck the right balance between cultural immersion and personal enjoyment, making it ideal for both first-time visitors and those celebrating a special occasion. Rating: 5/5 – Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable and personalized Cairo experience.

Thank you very much for sharing your detailed and generous review. Your feedback reflects exactly the experience we aim to deliver: knowledgeable guides, relaxed pacing, flexibility when plans change, and seamless organization from start to finish. Thank you for highlighting Hussein’s professionalism and the value of having a German-speaking guide. We are also pleased that the visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum and the alternative arrangement for the birthday evening created memorable moments for everyone. It was a pleasure to support your group throughout the three days, and we appreciate your trust during the last-minute change of the Sound & Light Show. Your decision to enjoy Le Petit Chef was an excellent choice, and we are happy everyone enjoyed the celebration. Your 5/5 rating means a lot. We look forward to welcoming you again to Egypt for more well-crafted and personalized experiences.

Exceptional Service from Start to Finish!Whatever you agree it will happend.

We had an absolutely perfect experience with this company. From the moment we booked our trip, the service was seamless and personalized. A special thank you goes to Ahmed, the boss, who handled our initial booking and ensured our arrangements, including the airport transfer, were flawless. He was highly professional and made the start of our journey stress-free. The following day, our main trip was made unforgettable by our incredible guide, Mohamed. Mohamed treated us so well, providing fantastic insights and making the entire tour enjoyable and informative. His passion and care truly made the trip perfect. Finally, we must praise the amazing driver who was with us throughout the journey. He was exceptionally kind, treating us with a level of warmth and care that felt truly genuine—he treated us just like his own children. This level of personal attention made us feel safe and comfortable the entire time. Thank you to Ahmed, Mohamed, and the dedicated driver for providing such a memorable and outstanding travel experience. We highly recommend Ahmed A.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review and kind words. It was truly our pleasure to have you with us. We’re delighted to know that everything—from the booking and transfers to the tour experience—met your expectations. Ahmed, Mohamed, and our driver will be very happy to hear your appreciation. We always strive to make every guest feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for from start to finish. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you again soon

Very interest

We had a great visit to Saqqara with our guide, who was warm, friendly, and clearly very knowledgeable about the site’s history and significance. He pointed out very interesting tidbits around the site which was mind blowing. The only small hiccup was that at times, he began explaining things before the whole group had gathered, which meant a few of us missed parts of the commentary. That aside, it was a memorable and well-informed tour — would definitely recommend!

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure guiding you through Saqqara and sharing its fascinating history — I’m really glad you enjoyed the tour and found the stories interesting. I also appreciate your helpful feedback about the timing of my explanations; I’ll make sure to wait for everyone to gather next time so no one misses a detail. I’m happy you had a memorable experience, and I hope to see you again soon for more adventures around Egypt!
