What people are saying about Sakkara

I highly recommend this tour, my Guide Ali and drivers Mustafa and Mustafa were brilliant. Ali was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. He was very respectful and friendly and made me feel safe (being a solo female traveller) it was very well organized and the best way to see the sights! Made my trip very memorable and special. The only downside was getting ripped off at Sultans Palace (perfume shop) so please be careful if you go there and don't be pressured into buying anything... I got charged £160 and I almost cried, that was the only negative of the whole trip. But it can't drop a star because my guide was so good! (he wasn't there at the store) so it wasn't his fault. I still highly recommend this tour, very attentive and amazing knowledge. I learned so much and saw so many amazing things and great photos too :)

Our guide, Eman, gave us a great 2 day tour of Cairo and the pyramids of Giza, Sakkara and Memphis. We loved the time with her and her passion for teaching us ancient to modern Egyptian history. She knows the Egyptology materials inside and out and was helping us remember key facts without overwhelming us with too much information all at once. She made sure we were happy and managed the time very well so we could see everything, have lunch quickly because she pre-ordered lunches from trending restaurants and she took instaworthy photos of our family, which we will cherish. You will love this tour.

The tour was great. We requested a few last minute modifications and it was solved. Our guide was professional and friendly. We travelled with small kids and they also enjoyed the whole experience. Highly recommended activity.
