2-Day Ancient Egypt and Old Cairo Highlights Tour

We had Zenab as our guide, and we couldn't have asked for anyone better, in fact we asked to have her the second day as well. The tour was personalized as we were offered to make additional stops. We were catered to in the sense that we asked to go off route and stop at the Cairo Harley Davidson store to pick up a souvenir for a family member. Both Zenab and our driver had no problem with it and added it to our day. Due to a late flight on our second day Zenab offered to add to our tour a dinner with view of the Sphynx evening light show and then transfer us to the airport for an additional cost; it was very well worth it. We appreciated this as we could take our luggage with us in the morning and have it all day rather than leave it at the hotel and have to go back. Zenab took fabulous pictures for us and was always offering anything we needed. I highly recommend this tour and make sure to ask for Zenab as your guide.

Wonderful tour ask for Rania she is Amazing!

WARNING!! do not attempt to tour Egypt, especially Cairo without a guide. I cannot praise our guide, Bassan, enough. All tour guides are university educated and licenced, and are a vital and valued part of the Egyptian tourist industry. Bassan was enthusiastic, friendly , and a mine of information. Be ready to confront a city of 25 million people....and nearly as many cars. A holiday of a lifetime, Thanks Viator!

We had a wonderful two days with Fatma. She is the best. Thank you.

We had a great time. Yasser was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and fluent in English. On the first day Yasser collected us on time at our hotel, introduced us to the mini-bus our driver, Hassan, and briefed us the day ahead. He explained that because of overcast weather in the morning we should reverse the routine of the day and visit Saqqara first. This worked out well as there were few people at Saqqara, and no queues. In fact we had the Red Pyramid completely to ourselves. Yasser maintained an ongoing informative commentary through most of the driving, and fully answered questions as they arose. After a good lunch Yasser took us to the Pyramids at Giza. We frequently stopped for information and photo breaks, and of course the obligatory camel ride, We saw everything as planned, and the afternoon visit was indeed better for photos. We finished the sightseeing part of the day, and were driven back to our hotel, where Yasser told us about the plan for the next day - Old Cairo. Again we were picked up on schedule, and we visited all the sites as planned. Yasser guided us where he needed to, and when we wanted to do our own thing in the bazaar he stayed close by. We spent just the right time at each site, without feeing that we were skimping, or cramming. Another great day, and we were very pleased with the 2 day package. Of final note Hassan was a hugely professional driver in the chaos of the city's roads.
