Very interesting tour with passionate and open minded guide Mimo who knows a lot (everything and everyone) and he has a direct answer to all your questions. Faraos and their live(s) comes alive on this tour. Talks sometimes very quick, so be attentive because he will tell it only once.
Mimo was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and great fun to be with. He also took some amazing photos and compiled a video for us. Thank you so much. The camel ride was really fun. However, it would have been helpful to have a better understanding of the tipping system, as it was our first day, and we felt the camel man certainly insisted on a huge tip, in addition to paying for the ride. Nevertheless, we would highly recommend Mimo.
We loved our tour with Abla Saif! She was an amazing guide and our experience was overall amazing ☺️ Also, great value for price. Thank you!
We had a wonderful experience visiting the Pyramids and the Sphinx with our tour guide, Doaa. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and patient with our group, which included several students, teachers, and the school principal from Jordan. Doaa explained the history in a clear and engaging way, answered all our questions, and ensured that everyone felt comfortable and informed throughout the tour. She has also took amazing photos for us 😍 We truly appreciate her warm personality and excellent guidance. Highly recommended!
Mimo Viator Tour guided me on the Pyramids Tour today. He amazed me with his experience as a guide, explaining the history of the Pyramids to me, especially since it was my first time visiting Egypt. He was very patient and knowledgeable. I give him 5 stars for his professionalism. Thank you, Mimo, and I hope to have you as my tour guide again if I return to Egypt. I recommend him to everyone!
Merna was absolutely FANTASTIC! Punctual, friendly, knowledgeable and made our day one to truly remember. Thank You for a wonderful day, our only regret is that we didn’t book her for our visit to the GEM. We will certainly be recommending her to all our friends.
Mohammed was an excellent tour guide. Very punctual and knowledgeable. Made the trip what it was. Would highly recommend!
Our tour guide Muhammad was absolutely brilliant . He picked us off on time which is extremely unusual as you can imagine in Egypt and gave us a very informative and comprehensive tour with brilliant stops at the shops and the papyrus factories . The shops we stopped at where surprisingly has a free and the prices were very reasonable . We definitely recommend Muhammad if you want a hassle free and informative tour. Thank you
The day began with a breathtaking camel ride into the desert, the Great Pyramids forming a perfect backdrop. Our guide was engaging and passionate, helping us feel connected to everything we saw. The desert air was still, the moment felt timeless. But then, lunch arrived and it fizzled. The authentic label felt misleading when served bland, flavorless food that missed the heart of Egyptian cooking. We longed for hummus with depth, tangy salad, or koshari with spices and crunch something that echoed the rich culture. Instead, the bland meal lurched the high spirits into a flat moment. The tour was beautiful and well-paced otherwise. But food matters it’s part of the memory. Here, it didn’t match the promise.
Watching the pyramids grow closer on camelback was a moment we’ll never forget. The golden glow of sunrise, the soft padding of the camel’s steps it was poetic. Our guide was courteous and informative, weaving stories about ancient Egypt that added depth to the visuals. But lunch? That part was underwhelming. They advertised it as authentic Egyptian cuisine, yet what was served was a stark contrast: flat pita, lukewarm chicken, and uninspired rice. It felt generic, almost like reheated leftovers. In a tour designed to celebrate Egypt, the food should at least do the same. Still, the pyramids alone made the morning unforgettable. But the lunch dampened the overall experience, leaving me wishing for more coherence between the sights and flavors.
Mimo was an amazing guide. He was so knowledgeable and answered every question that I had. His experience in Egyptology is definely there. He was so full of information. I would definitely recommend him.
Great morning with Mimo at the pyramids and Spinx with traditional Egyptian lunch. The restaurant which was overlooking the Spinx gave us the opportunity to try local dishes. Mimo was good to advise on things to avoid and try. Staff at the restaurant were welcoming. Lunch was included and we paid for beverages. Mimo was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. On his recommendation we also had a camel ride which despite our fears was a great experience and if you’re going to ride a camel this has to be the coolest location! Mimo was very helpful in taking and setting up great photo opportunities by himself and colleagues. The pyramids were incredibly moving and there was real impression on your senses and a connection absolutely worth a visit with a trusted guide Mimo ensured we had comfort breaks in clean environments and access to water it was an incredibly hot day and he safely guided us with the hop on hop off buses. We also were taken to see the Papyrus, the historical and current day use. Amazing demonstration of how the cut, soaked, pressed and dried and then used as paper. Opportunity to buy personalised art at reasonable prices.
Amazing tour guide. Very knowledgeable about everything. Everyone seemed to know him too. He catered to our needs and made everything alot better. I would highly recommend this tour. He is good at taking photos too!
Mohammed was amazing! The experience was so interesting and it was really helpful having a tour guide who kept us safe from scammers and also who was so knowledgable. Every question we had he was able to answer, and he also tailored the trip to suit our needs making it a really enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend!!
First time in Egypt and had the pleasure of having Mohamed Kalel as our glide to the pyramids of Giza. He was so incredibly talented at his job. He knows how to make you feel you are back in the time of the pharaoh’s while still giving you time to learn and look for yourself. After our time at the pyramids we headed to lunch at an Egyptian restaurant with amazing views then to a traditional smoking cafe with hookah’s and coffee (very delicious hibiscus tea there for me). Was also very good at helping get some amazing photos taken while on the tour.
Thank you so much, was a great 2 days, learnt alot on our trip and definitely recommend, Mohamed when booking to go to Egypt, very knowledgeable and a guide is needed when visiting. Thanks again.
Merna was an amazing tour guide!! From the minute we started to the ending, everything was smooth and so much fun! I would highly recommend this tour. Merna was very knowledgeable and so nice, she made us feel so comfortable and made this trip memorable!
Excellent and professional tour guide Mohamed Kamel. Very knowledgeable and good experience will go with tour again.
Mohamed took our family to the pyramids and around Cairo for two days. The whole experience has been exceptional with lots of new knowledge gained. We can highly recommend this guide for his great knowledge of ancient and modern Egyptian culture and his professionalism.
The views of the pyramids from various angles were nothing short of spectacular Our guide was incredibly informative providing insights that you wouldnt get on a standard tour We also indulged in a fantastic meal featuring traditional Egyptian cuisine complete with flavors that transported us straight to the heart of Egypt This experience is truly unparalleled!
Excellent tour with Discover Egypt! The tour was an amazing introduction to Ancient Egypt with its history brought to life by our brilliant guide Mohamed. His Egyptology knowledge was so impressive, especially his guided tours of the Pyramids and the Egypt Museum. Our tour coincided with Ramadan and on our visit to Cairo Citadel Mosque Mohamed gave us a wonderful clear explanation of the five principles of Islam that we shall remember for ever.
The experience was exceptional from start to finish Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made the history of the pyramids fascinating After our exploration we enjoyed a delicious meal featuring traditional Egyptian flavors that made for a perfect conclusion to the tour An unforgettable day in Cairo!
The tour was great and we had Mido as guide who was amazing! Very professional since the moment we booked and accommodating; we visited different spots and saw all the pyramids area. Mido spoke perfect Spanish and he was very knowledgeable. We then visited a site on how they made papyrus. Overall I good do it again!
Mimo (Mohammed) was absolutely excellent from the start. He took our group of 11 to the Giza Pyramids and the new GEM museum. He was able to infuse significant interest in everything he showed us. His knowledge is excellent (even down to the risky cartoon of Hatshepsut)! He also took us to the old Museum and flew with us to Luxor to show us all the major monuments there. We would have no hesitation of recommending him. He is also great fun to spend time with and quick with a joke!
Had a wonderful tour with Doaa and Mohamed. Doaa was very knowledgable and really did everything to make the day special, even arranging to visit a perfumery. Doaa took care of the vendors and do really it was a perfect tour of the Pyramids. Mohamed was a great driver - you read about driving in Egypt - but really, I felt completely safe with Mohamed. I strongly recommend both of them 🙏🏻🤗
Mimo is fantastic! His knowledge of ancient Egypt and the pyramids was impressive. He was engaging and we had a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking to visit the Giza pyramids.
Exceeded all expectations and an amazing experience was had by our small group. Memo has great knowledge of Giza and the pyramids. We visited the museum, pyramids, sphinx and had a visit to local coffee shop for true local experience. Recommended Memo for a truly great experience
Mohammed was an absolute gem ! We really missed him in Aswan and Luxor because he is simply the best guide ! His stories and recommendations were amazing . If ever in Cairo just get Mimo to take care of you . Even if it means stopping at different chemist or having local ice cream or hooka with the locals . He really did look after us and we enjoyed it with lots of memories to take back .
Thanks Mr.memo for this unexpected tour I love it so much and I really want to made it again and I was excited for More experience
We loved our tour guide Mohamed who went way above and beyond to ensure that we have a great experience of our Egypt trip. Mohamed ensures that you get to know the Egyptian culture closely and guided us to get right things completed at the right time for the Pyramid trip.

Awesome tour guide. Took us to places without the lines. Knew the area, people, and hit spots. Also taught us the history of Egypt and the site we visited.
The tour organised by Mimo was brilliant. Mimo was very flexible with timings and listened to us when we wanted to make changes/adapt timings of the tour. He was very knowledgable and friendly. He made us feel safe and comfortable for the duration of the tour. If you are coming to Egypt I would suggest you book your trip through him! He is fantastic ⭐️ Thank you!
MIMO is the best guide you can wish for. He has exceptional knowledge of ancient Egyptian history and knew exactly where to take us after enquiring what we wanted from the tour. He was patient taking endless photos for us, never rushed us and allowed us to stay for as long as we wanted at the various sites. He also managed to avoid larger groups. He is a friendly guy and liked by many, obvious from the warm greetings we enjoyed being with him. Thank you Mimo, you made a wonderful day of sightseeing easy and relaxing. We’ll recommend you to all our friends and will see you again.
What an awesome day! I can’t recommend Mimo enough, he was funny, knowledgeable and really made our day exceptional. If you want to go see the Sphinx, Saccara and the Pyramids go with him, you won’t regret it Thank you Mimo and see you next time we’re back 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏👏👏

Amazing lifetime experience looking at the pyramids. Mimo was an excellent guide and so patient when my group wanted pictures. He was super knowledgeable about the history of egypt and passed on this to us. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience Ancient Egypt!
Mimo was very informative about ancient Egyptian history and pointed out items of interest which I'd have otherwise missed. He took us to all the sights around the pyramids. Mimo was easy to understand and answered all our questions. He was also able to answer our questions about current egyptian politics and culture. I would highly recommend taking your pyramids trip with him.
