Our trip started weeks before by planning with Mohamed on what's app. We had mechanical plane issues which delayed our arrival and shortened our 1st tour but Mohamed was very patient and understanding and helped us reschedule. The initial night we did a camel ride around the pyramids at night and felucca ride on the Nile. Ali was a great guide and Khaled was an a very patient and calm driver. We were supposed to go to the Museum but secondary to a late flight and traffic the guide suggested to skip the Museum. Mohamed did refund a part of money. We finally arrived 1 week later to do the day time trip where we went back to the pyramids and Egyptian Museum which was amazing. Syed was very knowledgeable and patient helping my mother with walking and ensuring that we got excellent photos. We did stop for lunch and dinner on bother occasions and the food was amazing! Thanks guys! I wish I would've known a guide about how much of a tip to give. I gave $50 to the guide and $20 to the driver the next night and they appeared fine. Then I have 50 euros the second trip for the guys to share because I didn't have many lbs. Of course, no one can tell you how much to tip but I would just say be prepared to tip everyone. A couple of times I was asked for more or there was a look of disappointment. Also, please book on TripAdvisor as the prices are the best amongst the website and other companies. I highly recommend the company, trust them and you will truly havethe experience of a lifetime!
