          The old pyramids
          Nice trip for the morning I had free after cutting job early. My tour guide Anan was knowledgeable but not overbearing with the information. I would recommend the trip and am planning to take family with me next time around.

          Great trip to Giza and Cairo with guide Menna and driver Mohamed.
          Our guide Menna and driver Mohamed picked us up from the Cairo airport. We had a great 3 day trip with them in Giza and Cairo. We saw all the highlights of this part of Egypt. Menna was a modern Egyptian lady who spoke English very well and knew a lot from the history of the piramids in Giza and Sakkara. She showed us the Egyptian museum (with Tutanchamon) and the just opened Grand Egytian Museum (very impressive). We also visited the Coptic church, a synagoge and the Alabaster Mosque. Menna took care of our lunch in different places. The Farm House and Abo Tarek restaurant were great. Mohamed drove us safely through the more than chaotic traffic of Cairo and Giza. Great way to see many things in Giza and Cairo

          Ahmed is friendly guide and I recommend to book with him this tour
          Ahmed was an incredible guide during our Giza tour. His deep knowledge of Egyptian history, engaging storytelling, and passion for the culture brought the pyramids and Sphinx to life. He made sure everyone felt included, answered all our questions with patience, and even shared local tips that enhanced our experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide Ahmed made our visit truly memorable. Highly recommend!

          The half-day tour to the Giza Pyramids was an incredible experience! Exploring the ancient pyramids up close was awe inspiring our tour guide Ahmed was professional, Acknowledge, the guided camel ride added a unique, authentic touch with breathtaking views of the desert landscape. Lunch was a delightful and satisfying break, offering tasty local cuisine and a chance to relax.The tour was well-organised, informative, and perfectly paced for a half-day. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a memorable, immersive experience at one of the world’s most iconic sites!

          Top notch guide
          Amed was an excellent tour guide. I routinely travel around the world and he is one of the best that I have had the pleasure of touring with. Next time I get back to Cairo I will ask for him by name. His English is as excellent as his mastery of history in Egypt.

          Tour around the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx
          This was an excellent way to tour around the pyramids and see the Sphinx! Anan was an excellent tour who created a professional, fun and safe atmosphere. She had an excellent route mapped out to see all the main points, and her knowledge of ancient Egypt was outstanding! The tour facilitated for picking me up and dropping me off directly at the hotel along with amenities such as water and snacks throughout the route. Finally, Anan ensured that we went to some good local spots to pick up some fair value merchandise and gifts. A great experience all round, which I would throughly recommend for anyone wanting a well organised and stress-free tour.

          Fabulous 2 day desert experience
          Picked up at our Cairo hotel by our fabulous driver George from el Minya who then drove us to Beni Hassan for a tour of the Old Kingdom tombs all explained in great detail by the local tomb protector and then on to the temple of Speos Aremidos with traces of Hatshepsut and various gods. I’ve studied the tombs for years but to actually see them was absolutely fascinating. Overnight we stayed at the Omar El Khayam Al Minya Hotel which was lovely, and the following day included the Mallawi museum with a variety of artifacts from the local area from OK to the Byzantine era, and a trip to Amarna including the remains of the palaces, magnificent tombs and boundary stele. Lastly, a visit to the catacombs at Tunah Al Jabal with great tour of the amazing underground storage areas for 1000s of Ibis and baboon offerings followed by tombs of Petosiris and Isadora from the Ptolemaic and Roman period. George was a wealth of knowledge and very helpful with tipping and the tourist police as well as having expert knowledge on great eateries. He made us feel welcome and safe and made our holiday a great adventure. Contact George through the hotel, he's available to drive through El Minya, Luxor and beyond.

        We booked our trip to the pyramids via our hotel and we were more than positively surprised!
        First of all the pick-up service at the hotel was perfectly on time and our guide Esraa knew very much not only about the pyramids but also about the city of Cairo and Gizeh.
        Because of the Covid-Situation we had the whole complex almost for us alone and were able to take great pictures and also rented some camels for the full experience. When we wanted to buy something, took pictures or needed to know something, Esraa was a great help for us!
        Thanks for the nice trip!
        We can fully recommend to book it!

        It’s was a great trip. Both men were nice. Spoke English well, helpful and knowledgeable First stop We went to a store but the shop owner and I couldn’t come to a deal to purchase the art I wanted to buy. I had wished Anmed would have intervened and told the shop owner to make some kind of money (deal) but I left with no art :(. Next was the pyramids among time and he took photos for me which was great. I invited him to join me for my lunch at the four seasons hotel and had a nice talked and learned a lot about him and Egypt. I highly recommend going with Ahmed and visit all the wonderful sights while visiting abroad.

        This trip was no less than a first class experience! Ahmed from Egypt Via Travel is the best. He is knowledgeable in the work that he does. He was my personal tour guide he was my personal tour guide and did not disappoint. The Museum is breathtaking and a once in a lifetime experience and his knowledge was so valuable in helping me to understand the history of Egypt. I would not recommend anyone else. He is the best!

        Ahmed Talaat is the best tour guide hands down for the pyramids of Giza and the northern region of Egypt. You will not find a more well known guide in this area than this man. He is simply the most knowledgeable, passionate, and entertaining professional that you can find to guide you through the unknowns of Giza, Etc. He has access that is above and beyond the wildest expectations. No detail is overlooked or denied when your in his care. No lines with all doors open you will have. I found the whole adventure entertaining and personal with the utmost of private professional intimacy. He is a rockstar of what he does here and has my friendship and highest of recommendations! Till we meet again Ahmed Talaat!!! You are certainly the best!!!!!

        Ahmed Talaat is an expert guide for Egypt. I spent a day with him and felt completely safe, even though I was alone in a foreign land. He is friendly and polite and so knowledgeable about Egyptian culture and history. He made the whole day much more enjoyable than it would have been without him. I was one of the last people out of the pyramid because I was taking so many pictures. But I knew that Ahmed would be waiting for me, and he was! Anytime I get to return to Egypt, I want to be sure and book a day or two with Ahmed. Talaat. The right guide makes all the difference in the quality of one's experience. Thank you again, Ahmed.
