Moreover, The Sphinx consists of the lower body shape of a lion and a man's head. Its construction intends to protect the three great pyramids.
What an amazing day we had touring the pyramids with our excellent guide Mimo and our driver Amr. From the time we were picked up to our return to the hotel, Mimo treated us like family. With his expertise on Egyptian history and culture, to actually taking our first camel ride, then a tour of all 9 pyramids in Giza, we saw much more than we imagined. If we could give Mimo more that 5 stars, we would give him 10!
Mimo was an excellent tour guide and knowledgeable Egyptologist. He was very patient with us taking photos, knew all the photo spots, answered all of our questions, he also helped us avoid tourist traps like the sellers! We loved the tour and recommend doing one to fully understand the history! The tour we booked included the Pyramids, Sphinx, camel ride and then Mimo told us on the day that we’d visit an aromatherapy store and papyrus store. Ashraf was an excellent safe driver!
We had an amazing tour with Mimo and Peter today! We were a bit conserned about long tiring tours with two children (2 and 9) but this was put to shame when the day started with a warm welcome by the two wonderful persons. Esspecially Mimo who has incredicible knowledge a out the pyramids, history and facts. He is fluent and easy to understand - and makes sure to put a childfriendly angle to the storytelling. Peter made us feel absolutely safe in the chaotic Cairo traffic and went above and beyond to make sure we could find a place a place to relax when we were done an hour before our flight back to Hurghada. We have tried many guided tours in various destinations around the world, but this was by far one of best experiences, esspecially when considering how much haggling we have experienced in Egypt. Thet both deserve our highest recommendations!
Perfect tour. Mimo and Falcon made sure we were safe, did not wait and had the best views possible. Cannot rate highly enough. Thank you!!!!
I cannot say enough great things about Mahmoud Hoka!! He was professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful and had a great sense of humour! My husband and I booked him for a half day pyramids private tour and had the absolute best time! I would HIGHLY recommend Mahmoud Hoka to anyone looking for a personalized tour of Egypt! He knows all the great spots for pictures and shopping 😊 We can’t wait to go back!
Our guide sameh picked us up on time, led us to the pyramids with a great view, gave us enough time for photos, and he is very knowledgeable about his job. We also enjoyed camel ride, visits to the museum, and a trip to the market in central. Overall a very well organized trip
Amazing, once in a lifetime experience! Our tour guide Mimo and driver Yasin were wonderful. Mimo is a highly educated guide and provided a wealth of information, able to answer all questions in colloquial English. Yasin is a careful driver who kept our belongings safe in the van as we toured the amazing sites. Mimo knew all the best poses and vantage points to take the best pictures. Mimo also was welll organized and served as a barrier between our group and all the trinket sellers. Would highly recommend.
booked this tour a few days before my arrival to Cairo with Zeinab. She was very fast in responding to our requests and organizing in the most efficient way our 2 days in Cairo. We were lucky to have Mimo as our guide, he took the time to take the best pictures. We had 2 amazing days in Cairo. Loved my experience and I will definitely go back and call Mimo and Zeinab because I need to explore more Egypt. Thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏
We had such a blast. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend and I even hope to do it again.
Mimo is what you would wish your tour guide would be like: knowledgeable (he's an Egyptologist), professional, and have a GREAT sense of humor :D Our young kids thoroughly enjoyed his historical explanation, fun facts, and quizzes (!) All delivered in super comical, yet educational way (he'd be a great vlogger / YouTuber). Mimo truly made our wonderful tour in Cairo become memorable. He provided valuable explanation that made me feel it would be a loss for me as a tourist if I were just to come alone & see those historical sites & artifacts without context / backstory. And if you got stuck in Cairo traffic jam? No problem, just start talking about football with him :D Thanks, Mimo! Rest assured anytime our family talk about our Egypt trip, your name will be mentioned in that story. As for constructive feedback to the tour program: maybe you can take away the perfume / herbal oil house from your program, it's skippable & not in the same 'wow' level as the other places ;)
Very friendly and knowledgeable guide Zenab Hanafy She put everyone at ease and explained the Egyptian customs in details. We never felt rushed during the activities and she was always concerned about how we felt. The lunch break was delicious not to mention the view, fabulous. I will be back and use their services again.
I had the greatest luck to meet Zenab. She was my tour guide for a short visit in Cairo. She is a lovely lady and proficient in her knowledge of Cairo and Egypt. Always smiling, good sense of humour and very adaptable to any kind of tour or visit in Egypt. She has the best driver and camel ride handlers with whom she has worked for many years. She immediately puts you at ease with her gentle manner and reminds you throughout all visits that buying and tipping are not compulsory. (However, we couldn’t resist getting some of the incredible oils and perfumes, papyrus artwork and beautiful handmade jewellery!) Zenab and her great team are worth my upcoming return to Egypt to continue exploring and learning with her. Thank you Zenab see you soon! شكراMore
Zenab was wonderfull, very knowledgeable, patient, and full of of surprises! Highly recommend this guide and company, best way to see and learn about Egypt’s treasures… 😎
It was a last minute decision to book this tour and thanks God we did as Zeinab the tour guide is an attraction herself with her knowledge, sense of humour and charisma. We literally enjoyed each single minute of this tour since we met Zeinab till we left her as we were transferred back to our accommodation. The Pyramids and Sphinx was a lifetime dream that we did. Thank you Zeinab and thanks to Egypt Life Tours
We've had a great experience with our tour guide Zenab! She is the best!! She is very knowledgeable and very kind. She told us lota of fun facts and kept everyone interested in what she was saying. Just brilliant!! I would go again in a heartbeat!
Amazing experience, nice tour , professional facilities. Thanks for everything. Looking forward to visit Cairo again .
Awesome tour! Our guide was so helpful and showed us a wonderful time! She went up and beyond and would highly recommend the tour!
What a great experience which was only enhanced with the assistances of our wonderful tour guide Zenab. Thank YOU!! We were celebrating my father's 80th Birthday in Egypt and what better way to do that than with a tour around the Pyramids and Sphinx. Zenab was a fountain of knowledge and explained all the attractions in detail along with our several questions. Even if a quick unscheduled stop was required, it was catered for without any issues. We had a wonderful time and above all my dad still talks about it till today, so thank you again and hope to see you soon
My fiancé and I travelled to Cairo from Chicago to explore the pyramids and check it off out bucket list. We found Zienab through trip advisor and read all the positive reviews. Our experience was first class as she arrived on time with a driver, directed us to our camel ride, took our pics and gave us insight to life in Cairo. We felt safe the whole time! When we come back we will do another tour with Zienab.
Zainab was a fantastic guide and we really enjoyed the visit to the pyramids. We plan to return to Cairo again and will definitely be contacting Zainab!
An absolute must do to see the pyramids, everything was professional and everything you needed catered for, if you are in Cairo book this tour you won’t regret it
We had only 3 days in cairo so we took the 8 hours tour around Cairo. We had our private tour guide Ms. Zainb who was informative, welcoming, and she did an amazing job showing us the highlights of Cairo giving us tips and taking photos of us, she bought water for us and got the tickets we need to enter the attractions. Thank you Zainab for the wonderful experience!
Great experience! I had a long layover in Cairo and wanted to make the most of it so I booked a tour to the Pyramids and Sphinx for the day. Got to ride a camel and takes pics. I randomly found this tripadvisor tour and it ended up being exactly what I wanted. Zeinab picked me up from the airport with our private driver for the day, and prior to my arrival she was really great with communication since my flight had been delayed by 40 minutes. I was solo, so I had some concerns going into Cairo alone, but Zeinab and her colleague were pleasant, kept me safe, we had a nice meal together, and we visited a couple local spots. I would highly recommend using Egypt Life Tours and specifically with Zeinab.
We were in Cairo on business and wrapped off the trip with our amazing guide Zenab. She added colour and wit to the tour, we'd highly recommend her. Seeing cultural icons like the Pyramids is also going to be amazing but Zenab made it special and even more informative. She added the human dimension. The other parts like the papyrus factory where fascinating as well. All in all a great trip.
Amazing experience! My friends and I had a great time with her. She was a wonderful host! Highly recommend her.
We did an 8-hour private tour of the Pyramids, Sphinx, Egyptian Museum and Bazaar including Camel Ride and Lunch from Cairo. A lovely lady-guide, Zenab, made the whole day extra special. She had so much knowledge on any topic about Egypt we had interest in. We loved the Egyptian Museum and enjoyed the local lunch very much. I can recommend this tour agency if you get this guide.
Zenab was reliable, brilliant, and fun to tour with. I absolutely loved spending the day with her. She taught us so much while giving us the freedom to explore what we were most interested in. We even came back to her on our last day so she could take us to the pyramids again. I would recommend her to anyone, especially women travelers!
My husband and I spent a wonderful day being shown the Pyramids and the Sphinx. We were even taken to a shop selling great Egyptian artwork.
My tour with Zened (our guide) was the most memorable day in Egypt. She takes care of you like you are family and go above and beyond to make your experience prefect. She knows her stuff, her people, and she has a really good English. I would definitely do a full day tour with her next time.
We had such a good time with Zenab! The tour was professional, safe, and we felt like we had a very local experience. Definitely recommend!!
This tour was so amazing! We had such great customer service and assistance during the entire tour. We felt extremely safe and tour guide was very accommodating. The camel ride at the pyramids was outstanding!
Fantastic informative guide and great photos taken by the guide. Highly recommend it is an experience of a lifetime.
En un principio fueron muy amables. Nos recogieron a la hora pactada y nos llevaron a hacer la actividad. El problema es que querían ir muy rápido porque nos querían llevar a tiendas de sus amigos para intentar vendernos cosas. No está bien ir muy rápido, explicar las cosas a medias para luego intentar meterte en tiendas, carísimas por cierto. No lo recomiendo
I had a fantastic experience in the company of Zenab who was our guide for visiting the pyramids. She is extremely friendly and competent. We visited the site on an early Saturday morning to avoid the heat, Cairo traffic and crowds. The tour included entrance to the pyramid site, a 20-minute camel tour through the desert to take incredible photos, dinner at a local restaurant with stunning views of the Sphinx, a tour and demonstration of an essential oils workshop, and a visit to a papyrus making workshop. The asking price for the half day is unbeatable. I strongly recommend that you use the services of Zenab. I will definitely participate in another round when I next come to Egypt.
