Emad Salib was such a great guide! He explained so much history about the pyramids and temples that you don’t read about on the internet. Kind, lighthearted and proud of the Egyptian history, it was a lovely tour on my solo adventure to Cairo! Plus he takes great photos. Thank you Emad!

Our day tour of Saqqara, Memphis, and the Giza Pyramids was simply unforgettable. Emad Salib was an outstanding guide, providing balanced, insightful, and engaging explanations while placing each monument in its wider historical context. He was professional, attentive, flexible, and always willing to accommodate our questions and requests. Thanks to him, the experience was both educational and enjoyable. A fantastic day that I highly recommend!
The tour was very nice, with comfortable ride between the sites and our tour guide Emad Salib was very knowledgeable! We visited Giza plateau, Saqqara and Memphis, stopped for a snack at Giza Pyramids, with no rush and time to enjoy the trip. The booking was simple, directly with the tour operator’s WhatsApp number, found on their website, a couple of days before. I highly recommend this private tour to avoid the crowds, have more time and flexibility to do what you like 😊
Our Guide Emad Salib was very helpful and knowledgeable we learned so many things about Egyptian history . The ride around was very comfortable he provided cold water so you are all set to explore
Emad Salib we thank you very much for making our first time ever in Egypt as easy as it was, we were nervous at first but Emad took care of everything knows his way around and guided us through the Pyramids, Sacara and Memphis.
Salib very thorough in explaining the details of each attraction and also took us to great spots for photos. The restaurant he recommended for lunch was also excellent. We will definitely choose him again for our next tour. I highly recommend him as a guide; you can learn a lot from him
We did a full day tour with Salib and it was an incredible experience. He explained everything in detail and waited patiently for us while we took photos. He arrived punctually and answer all our requests and questions. He is a person passionate about the history of the Egyptian people. I highly recommend him. Thanks for everything.
Great tour. Our guide Salib gave us an unique experience. He was very kind and explained everything we should know about every place we visited. Definetively I will recomend this tour.
This was an incredible choice! We did two tours with Salib (Giza & Sakkara & Alexandria) and he truly did an incredible job. He explained all the history very clearly and made us feel extremely safe. He is super kind and had waters in a water cooler that were cold and refreshing. He became like a family friend for our family. The tour was a fun and informative experience without over doing it and he had a lot of patience for slow walkers like us :) excited to come back and have all of our tours with Salib!
Salib is a kind guide. He thinks of everything that his clients can need, he cares a lot about giving you a great experience. The restaurant he took us to in Alexandria was the best restaurant we went to during our stay in Egypt.
Salib was amazing, he explained everything so good, he is very niche and it seems that he likes what he’s doing, he show us so many places for one day, thank you Salib, grate guy.
We had a lovely day , the lunch which is included in the package was delicious! Our guide, Salib, was full of knowledge ,very patient and always worried about our comfort and enjoyment! Super recommend!
The guy was amazing thank you Osama and Ibrahim. I would definitely suggest the tour, we had enough time to do all the things, lunch was great open buffet.
Ibrahim and Osama provided a wonderful trip full of knowledge and insights into historical and archeological background of the pyramids. Osama has incredible knowledge, no matter the question, he always had the answer, ALWAYS. Water was always available and food was great. Ibrahim made sure our travel was very safe and sound. With ample air con to keep us cool in the blistering heat. Really really enjoyed the guide and definitely the best so far during our time in Egypt. Once again, thank you to Ibrahim and Osama. Superb!
Very good day! Knowledgeable guide, Useme. Would 100% recommend this tour. The food was also really good in a nice restaurant.

He help us with some question about egipt and was Great. The day was perfect in its totally. Thank you for all
We had a great time during our tour. Our guide Salib was very attentive and kind. He gave us good explanations about ancient egypt and its monuments. Also, lunch was very good.
I recently had the pleasure of touring with Salib in Egypt to see the pyramids, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. Salib was incredibly informative and accommodating, never pressuring us into anything we didn't want to do. He allowed us the freedom to choose our stops and shops, showing genuine thoughtfulness throughout the entire journey. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I got a custom one day tour around Cairo, Giza and Memphis and it was wonderful. Salib picked me up on time from the hotel, showed me everything around. It was very interesting to hear about the history of Egypt and learn more about ancient Egyptians' lifestyle. I definitely recommend this company, especially if you'd like a custom itinerary. They are very accommodating.
We had two days with private guide, Salib, and our trip was fabulous. Salib was extremely knowledgeable, was very aware of our needs - when we needed water, food, trips to the loo etc. we covered a lot of places - the first day Saqqara, Memphis, the pyramids and the sphinx. We learnt so much - it was fantastic. Day 2 - with a very prompt pick at the hotel (near Giza pyramids) we were driven into Cairo to visit the museum. Salib got us to the museum so that we were at the front of the queue at opening time. We went straight to see the Tutankhamen exhibition - it was so special as we were first there and saw it on our own to begin with. Spectacular. Salib then steered us round the museum to see the exhibits of real importance, so as not to get too overwhelmed. Then driven to see the Coptic churches and a synagogue , followed by a drive to the Islamic area of Cairo with visits to ancient mosques, and saw the bazaar area. We also stopped for an Egyptian dish at a local cafe - delicious and cheap. The first lunchtime we stopped for falafel - so good and so fresh. We could have had a more substantial meal had we wanted to but we chose to go for the lighter option. We would really recommend this trip - we could not have done this on our own. Our guide, Salib, was just brilliant at bringing the Egyptian history to life.
We did a private tour of Saqqara, Giza pyramids and the Egyptian Museum and it was a great experience, especially with the informative and friendly guide we had in Osama! He took care to share stories and relevant information about the scenes and artefacts that we were seeing and all of it came to life! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting!
Salib was very accommodating on our two day custom tour around Cairo. Him and the driver were able to make all the stops we wanted and more. He was very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions we had. I think what I also liked is that he wasn’t pushy and trying to upsell us on stuff. So many people want to make a quick dollar, but this is not the case with Salib. He definitely wants the best for his customers.
Salib was very friendly and very knowledgeable. We spent two days being guided by Salib and had a great time. His help with tickets and merchants were well worth the price alone. He was also always on time and very accommodating. Highly recommend booking a tour with Salib!
Salib was an awesome guide, he had answers for all my questions about Egyptian history. The transportation was awesome as well!
Salib, our guide was fantastic. Very informational and great with answering all our questions. We had a private bus that was punctual and clean. Highly recommend this tour
It was an amazing experience and adventure spent with an awesome guide, who was very patient and kind! He waited for us and fulfilled all our wishes even out of the time period thar we planned. He was very competent and was acquainting us with the story of each sightseeing! I recommend everyone to choose Osama Mikael as a guide!
Salib was incredibly welcoming and helpful. The lunch spot that Salib took us too was delicious. We had a wonderful experience and we would highly recommend this business and Salib to others. What an amazing day! A childhood dream come true. Thanks so much Sabil!
Excellent tour in every way. 1. Incredible places and 100% worth doing with guides. There is so much to learn. 2. Very good communication beforehand and very punctual pick up. 3. Osama, our guide, is the best I have ever had. He was very attentive and wise in his recommendations. He solved all our doubts about the sites and the Egyptian culture in general, we were never in a hurry and we spent the necessary time in each place. Finally, we would like to highlight his kindness. Mohamed, the driver, was also very attentive and friendly with great driving skills. They were also flexible in ending the tour by dropping us off at the museum instead of our hostel.
Great trip, I went with my father and mother and we were extremely satisfied. As an archaeologist I can say that the guide Salib was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. Durning the whole trip we felt safe and not pressured to do or buy anything we did not want to. I thoroughly recommend this trip!
It was an incredibile trip! The guide, Oussama, Is a brilliant and very friendly guy and the driver Mohamed was very kind too! Thanks to them we learned a lot and they showed us all these incredibile location that we world have missed without them!! Absolutely the best out there!
Very good guide, good knowledge sharing. Good food, and views! Our guide was Salib, and the driver was Hossam.
This tour with our guide Osama was an absolute blast! We first started with a 1 day tour to the Sakkara complex (Step Pyramid, Ounas Pyramid, Serapeum + some Old Kingdom mastabas) and then Osama organized us another tour to the Giza pyramids very flexibly/last minute (less than 2 days later). Osama is extremely professional, smiling and always happy to help and share his extreme knowledge of Ancient Egypt. He answered literally all of our questions and accomodated every requests we made along the way, to make sure our trip was customized to our liking. Osama also recommended a couple of amazing traditional Egyptian restaurants so we can taste the local cuisine after both our tours. Icing on the cake: his car drivers are also the nicest people and always make sure you have everything you need. Truly a once in a lifetime experience - i definitely recommend travelling with Osama to everyone who wants to have an authentic experience in Egypt!!
Salib was a great guide the whole day and told us very interesting insights. Mostafa is a great driver and brought us everywhere in a safe way :)
it was an amazing experience. the sights were amazing and Salib, the guide, was very good. Salib showed us a lot of amazing things not so touristic and it was a pleasure to listen to his stories. he is very knowledgeable and his level of English is very good. we had plenty of time to enjoy each and every place and the driver Ibrahim was a good driver. I recommend them, especially if you are curious to find out more about the Egyptian life, both in ancient and modern times.
Awesome trip! Great guide Salib & driver Essam. Would definitely recommend this trip. Thank you for all the interesting information. Learned a lot. Would even take tour test Salib 😉💪🏼. Thank you!
Great tour, and Salib is a very knowledgeable guide who provided a lot of detail about the sites, history and any question I had. Also want to thank Essam for his driving skills and managing us through traffic. Certainly would recommend going on any other trip with Salib as well.

Salib was a wonderful, knowledgeable, and engaging guide. You could tell he really knows his stuff and loves what he does. He catered to a lot of our special wishes and was attentive to our needs. I would recommend him a 100 to everyone, that is interested in visiting the Pyramids, or any other sites in the area. I was deeply impressed with everything and have found new appreciation for Egypt and its history.
Our tour guide, Salib was incredible. His English was excellent. My wife was hesitant to book a private tour, but after spending time with Salib she was very comfortable and happy. I would recommend this tour to everyone. The price was affordable, the tour guide was incredible and he took many pictures of us. I was very happy with the Tour and the places were incredible. This is definitely one to book. Our tour guide explained the history in great detail, he explained how to avoid fake products and people constantly worrying you. Overall, I would definitely recommend this tour and especially the guide who made the trip very memorable.
