- Chris P00Pyramids, market, museum tour-excellent choiceWe did the pyramids, sphinx, camel ride, market and museum tour and I would definitely recommend this tour. We wanted a Cairo tour with the main highlights, and I spent a long time looking up various tours from many different providers on different platforms, and found it very difficult to separate them from one another. This tour was an excellent experience for me and my gf. Our Egyptologist/guide Youssef and driver Aly were both very friendly and professional. Great pyramid tour and accurate historical info, and useful practical advice re optional activities at the pyramid site. Excellent photo spots throughout. The lunch was great, pyramid views included. The museum tour was brilliant and I was very happy with the pace, detail, and overall manner of Youssef. It was accurate and well structured, calling back sights and info from the pyramid tour, and helped put the exhibits in context in what is a long timeline. The driving was at a very safe pace throughout and Aly kept us hydrated in the heat. The best feature was the manner and the flexibility of the team. As an example, after the pyramids we were taken to a perfume shop (which appears to be ubiquitous amongst these tours). While not on the schedule, we were expecting this as were told clearly at the beginning, so not out of the blue. Despite some trepidation, we were made very comfortable by the host and it was reiterated that we were not expected to buy anything, and it did not come off as pushy whatsoever. We got a complimentary drink without paying anything (but again very clearly stated up front in perfect English we were not required to buy anything) , and not made to feel like we had to tip for the drink etc which I found a very positive. The whole thing lasted maybe 20mins and then we left. We then were given an option to go to a papyrus place which we declined-again fully flexible and professionally dealt with. Instead we were taken straight to lunch then onto our other activities. You leave a tip at the end which is customary for Egypt, but I think it was fully entitled for the service. I would recommend this tour and advise travellers to clearly state if they want more or less time per activity and they are very flexible. Overall, would recommend for the professional and friendly service, decorum and flexibility.
- 112elizabethannem00Team Mimo and AliIf you want to experience strikingly unique Egyptian excursion we highly recommend Mimo and Ali. Fun, safe, convenient, and educational. Mimo is an egyptologist, there’s no dull moment with him, he’s a local and you know you’re safe with him plus he has a touch of good photography skills! No bluff! Ali, he should be featured in fast and the furious movie he drives like a pro! Plus the hospitality in the car is 5 star. Both of them represents Egypt.
- ericbM5609AC00AwesomeThe tour guides were very nice and very knowledgeable. The whole experience was planned very well and went very smoothly. The food for the lunch was amazing and they helped us take great pictures of the pyramids and riding camels.
- brianhH8132ZA00Unforgettable experienceThe views were incredible. Riding a camel around the pyramids is something I’ll never forget. Our guide Zenab was so knowledgeable and an absolute joy to spend the day with. The fact that it was just our group made it all the more special. After the pyramids we got to go shopping at some stores with authentic Egyptian products- perfumes, papyrus, and jewelry. We also had a delicious lunch and spent some time in the Egyptian Museum. It was an amazing day. Highly recommend this tour for everyone.
- aniperM5207RG00Mimo is the best!Fantastic tour with Mimo! He is so knowledgeable and entertaining! We could not have had a better experience with another tour guide. So much fun and educational too! His driver Ali was also excellent in the Giza traffic. Would do it all over again with Mimo!
- Stay3739198349500Best guide and driver in Cairo.We had a spectacular day out! Mimo is a very knowledgeable guide and Peter is a brilliant driver. We highly recommend them for a great day out.
- W1933HUilariap00Amazing tourIman has guided us into the history of Egypt. She was a really pleasant company. Hope to meet her again
- 214cjb00A Shining Shimmering Splendid ExperienceVisiting Egypt for the first time with family can be daunting but from start to finish, Mahmoud Hoka, showed Cairo/Giza to us with such admirable knowledge and heart for his country. We truly felt like we were with family as in every turn he explained each piece of history with such eloquence, that it was as if we were transported into the past. Our guide also ensured that we were comfortable and excited for the Camel ride, he helped capture moments that can be forgotten in chaos, but not with Mahmoud Hoka. His artistic attention to detail was an immense help with photos, which can often feel awkward but with his guidance, it was as if we were on a photo shoot. Never have I ever experienced such passion, joy and hospitality. It would be to the benefit of every country to have a Mahmoud Hoka, so that each guest can feel as welcomed and blessed as we were. More than a guide, our biggest take away was feeling like a friend took us on a magic carpet ride.
- Compass1640988620000Most highly recommendedThis experience was way above all my expectations. The day was so wonderfully planned and executed. Mimo is so incredibly knowledgeable and hospitable. He paid careful attention to all our individual needs and made sure they were taken care off. Mimo is extremely friendly and very well spoken which made our communicating fun and engaging. Also have to mention that Mimo's photographic skills are on point. Mimo had lots of exciting things for us to see, learn, indulge in and loved his special surprise for us too. Our driver Peter was also extremely professional. I felt very safe in that chaotic Cairo traffic with Peter's navigation skills. All in all, a highly recommended experience with Egypt's best guide and driver⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- bernardl21200Magnificent Tour of the Pyramids and the MuseumOur guide Rania who was with us the whole tour was an expert, she explained things to us very precisely. The Pyramids were just awe inspiring. The pieces in the Museum took you back many thousands of years to an impressive Civilisation. Thank you to Pyramids land Tour, Rania and Yaseen (our courteous and friendly driver)
- vcurator00Simply incredible experience!Amaizing experience with a highly professional team! Our guide, Manar, is an incredibly knowledgeable Egyptologist. She explains not only history but also social aspects and political aspects of modern Egypt. Lovely person and a great animal lover. Our driver Peter also was extrimply professional, polite, friendly & helpful. Each time we would return to the minibus, there was a new chilled bottle of water. It's a very long day, but it flies by with professionals like Manar & Peter! Thank you so much for the unforgettable experience and great time!
- Relax71916700One day trip in CairoThis trip is well worth it. Our tour guide Mahmoud Hoka is professional, knowledgeable Also he cares his customers very much.
- Jane P00Great One Day Tour in Cairo!Karam, our guide was excellent. He was so knowledgeable and welcoming. The tour was wonderful and included so much of what we wanted to see in our short time in Cairo. Karam deftly navigated us from location to location and to the best vantage points to appreciate the pyramids. The day was filled with sights and activities from start to finish. We made a very last minute booking late the evening before, and by early morning Karam and the driver were ready to go. We feel very lucky to have had this guide, especially with. the wealth of information he shared with us. 10/10
- margief32000Amazing Day with the best!!!Mimo was are amazing tour guide!! His knowledge and great communication was the key to our 8hrs private tour!!! Our driver complemented the amazing journey and thanks to Mustafá we were always safe and on time. This trip was breathtaking.
- giovannilN4113WL00The best Guide in Cairo!!! MIMOMimo, our tour guide was amazing, you can tell he loves what he does!! Very informative, helpful and protected us constantly from hacklers. We are celebrating our 30th weeding anniversary and Mimo made it that much special. His English is excellent and his knowledge on historical sights, history, and just interesting cultural information was impressive! If you are thinking of doing a tour in Egypt, Cairo, ask for Mimo ro be your guide, it will be the best decision you made in Cairo!! By the way, clean, air conditioned, new van, and plenty of cold water to drink, safe driver and reliable service!! Gooooo Mimo!!!

I was so grateful for our experience with Karam our guide!! We did a 2 day tour, first day was Giza and Saqqara then the second day we did Cairo. It was magical. Karam’s communication was second to none. He was so informative and proud of his country I fell in love with it myself!! He was very helpful in giving us excellent suggestions but was not pushy at all. He shared such heartfelt love and knowledge for Egypt, his family and his people. He got along so kindly with everyone we encountered, it made us feel safe. I highly recommend this tour especially if you’re lucky enough to get Karam. Thank you!!!

My friends and I had the most amazing trip with Memo. The driver was amazing through the busy streets of Cairo.
Memo took good care about us and answered every annoying question that we had...we had always so much time to take our funny pictures. He took care that we were not bothered by the guys who wanna sell you all thoese tourist souvenirs that are made in china 😅...the last stop after the pyramids of Giza we went to sakkrah step pyramids...amazing view.
I felt very safe during the whole trip also in relating to covid hygiene measurements
Thank you so much for this amazing time

Found Pyramid Lands through Viator and decided to give them a go. Good decesion! Guide Manar and driver Meshel were patient with our detailed visits at Saqqara and made effort that we saw EVERYTHING at Giza too. In a place where scams happen too often, Manar and Meshel were a breath of fresh air!
