What To Expect
The Great Pyramid of Khufu
The famous Great Pyramid of Khufu is by far the biggest, tallest, and most intact pyramid in Egypt. After its construction, it became one of the “Seven Wonders of the Ancient World”, and today, it is the only one of them remaining. For a period of 4300 years, the pyramid was also the tallest building on earth, until the French built the Eiffel Tower in 1889. Khufu’s Pyramid is built entirely of limestone and is considered an architectural masterpiece. It contains around 1,300,000 blocks ranging in weight from 2.5 tons to 15 tons. Its square base covers 13 acres, and its sides measure about 230m (755ft). Its four sides face the four cardinal points precisely and it has an angle of 52 degrees
Pyramid Complex of Khafre
Khafre's Pyramid, or the 2nd Pyramid, is easily recognizable by the layers of its original casing stones that still remain near its summit and this, along with the fact that it actually stands on a higher part of the plateau, gives the impression that it is taller than the Great Pyramid. An optical illusion, as it is only 136m (446 ft) tall, with sides of 214.5m (704ft), a surface area of 11 acres and an angle of 53 degrees. It also has lost some of its original height through the years, once being 143.5m (471ft) tall.

Great driver and very nice guy

5.00Mahmoud was a very nice driver, who brought me to the airport of Cairo from Giza. We had a very nice chat during our trip, and he was extremely kind to accompany me up to the main entrance of the airport. We had such a lovely trip, and discussion on Egypt, Cairo and other things that I was almost aad to break our chat once at the airport. Surely, when I'll go back to Cairo, I will call him for a tour of the city - I had his number on my agenda
5 star ⭐️ experience.

5.00Great experience in Egypt found this tour guide online. Contacted them before travelling very helpful and friendly. They helped arranging everything from accommodation to day to day activities. Plus transportation during our whole stay. Very clean and Morden car with air conditioning and comfort. They were very transparent about the costs etc. I would recommend this tour guide. We felt in safe hand no issues with anything, their English was very good. We went to see all the pyramids , deserts excursion black and white desert , hot and cold natural springs and Nile boat cruise . Would definitely visit Egypt again and use the same guides.

5.00First at all Egyptians are so friendly people the experience with Omar was perfect he speak English is very informative we talk about all. Omar is extremely informative. He knows a lot about the history of Egypt. Unfortunately, we did not meet him the first day we arrived because it was difficult on many occasions to communicate even though today we use Google translate. I asked him many things about the Muslim religion and customs and he was really brilliant and I would recommend booking with Omar to anyone who visits Cairo. You won't regret it, he organizes the tours very well, he knows about the prices we have to pay and that is perfect for a tourist in a country who doesn't know the language. Thank you Omar I hope to see you soon at our new stop in Cairo
Reliable, friendly and good value.
