Super friendly and professional, extremely knowledgeable about ancient history and every spot we visited. Also she’s an amazingly talented photographer.

It was like being in a dream to be there in such wonderment! Getting to have lunch on the river Nile was a once in a lifetime experience that I will never forget. Our guide was so nice and full of interesting information that it just added to the excellence of the day! Would absolutely do this tour with him again!I highly recommend this tour with Maged!!

I highly recommend this tour with Maged!! He went above and beyond to make this day special for us. Pickup from our hotel was right on time and he texted us on WhatsApp beforehand to confirm our details. Our tour of the Pyramids was amazing and we also got a special treat of going down into a tomb since we were with Maged. The camel ride through the desert and by the pyramids was my favorite. After we left we were a bit hungry but it wasn’t quite time for dinner so Maged made a stop and bought us a bunch of snacks (he paid…what tour guide does that?). Our tour of the museum was great and Maged is very knowledgeable and very passionate about the Egyptian history. We finished up the day with dinner on a boat on the Nile River. This was an incredible day that will never forget and Maged made us feel like family. Highly highly recommend you book this tour!!! Thank you brother, Maged!!!My daughter and I experienced an excellent full day's tour to Giza pyramids, camel ride, Sphinx, and to Cairo for food, an aromatherapy experience, papyrus shop and the Museum and Bazaar.

My daughter and I experienced an excellent full day's tour to Giza pyramids, camel ride, Sphinx, and to Cairo for food, an aromatherapy experience, papyrus shop and the Museum and Bazaar. Majet was the guide at Gem Explore and was very informative in his translation of hieroglyphs with a sound knowledge of all things Egyptian, especially at the Museum where he explained about many artefacts in interesting detail. His Dad, Gouda (sorry if the names are spelled incorrectly), was excellent at negotiating the crazy traffic in Cairo. Together they make an awesome, friendly team and we felt very safe in their company as they go the extra mile to look after their visitors. My only other recommendation is that you should perhaps cover your legs if you go on the camels as we experienced flea bites on the exposed parts of our legs where we'd worn shorts!
