    Pickup and drop off as well as flights were scheduled well on time. Our tour guide was great and explained a lot to us. The pyramids were amazing as well as the museum. The lunch was also good. What we didn’t like: it says that we go to an oriental market (which was one of the reasons to book the tour), instead they dragged us into a parfuem production which we didn’t want at all and which was a waste of time (1 Hour).

    The guide was friendly and the program varied. The only drawback (that's why there is a star deduction) was the "restaurant" which was more of a canteen in which it was like at the train station. This part of the trip was disappointing. But otherwise everything was good as expected.

    This trip was absolutely amazing. We were picked up on time at 3.45 from our hotel and taken to the airport for out flight to Cairo. When we arrived we were greeted by out tour Guide Gabri who was so friendly, was very knowledgeable and was just amazing. It was too early for the pyramids so Gabri took us for a local breakfast and so tea. We then went to the pyramids and had a camel ride. Next we went to the Spinx and then the papayas museum followed by lunch. After lunch we went to a perfume shop and then the museum. We paid extra for an early flight so after we never went to the market but went to the airport. What an amazing day. Thank you Gabri you were fantastic.
