Learning to spell out my name in hieroglyphs was just one of the facts I learned from Zanaty Mohamed Zizou my excellent guide on a half day visit to the Sphinx and Pyramids during a layover at Cairo Airport. Even before we met up, Zizou’s precise WhatsAp instructions led me to the lobby of the Le Meridian Hotel where efficient driver Mahmoud collected me and pointed out local sights as we drove to meet Zizou. A scholar of Egyptian language and history, Zizou’s commentary on legends about the pyramids and temples added fascinating information and context about the sights. At the museum, an extra stop, he led me to the highlights and explained customs behind the regalia and positioning of the ancient statues – he could read the ancient inscriptions on the tombs. We concluded with a delicious buffet lunch of traditional foods on a riverboat overlooking little boats bobbing by on the Nile. As an extra benefit, he helped me straighten out logistics of my travel plans before the vigilant Mahmoud drove me back to the airport with a new expanded understanding and appreciation of Egyptian history and lore.

A fabulous day with Mohamed Gomaa (our guide) and Ihab (driver). Mohamed combines his in depth knowledge with a wonderful sense of humour, engaging the adults and our 6 year old. From booking, to airport pick up, visiting the museum and bazaar, followed by the pyramids, fabulous camel ride and the sphinx, everything was smooth, organised, unrushed. The lunch was lovely and suitable for vegetarians This has been a lovely day, the highlight of our visit to Egypt.

My mum in law had a short layover on her way to Cyprus. Mohamed Gomaa really took care of providing an amazing experience. She really enjoyed!!

If you have a layover in Cairo, it is the perfect chance to grab so as to get into touch with the ancient Egyptian civilization. Mohamed is for sure a professional Egyptologist, who can easily share with you the passion and his profound knowledge regarding (ancient) Egypt! He convinced us to visit Egypt again!!!

Perfect way to spend part of my 12 hours in Cairo, from eating falafel for breakfast to riding camels at the pyramids, this tour was everything I wanted it to be and more. There is plenty of flexibility so if you don’t want to do a certain something, or you’d like to add a stop to your trip, all you need to do is ask Mohamed. He was a very knowledgeable guide and helped me learn Egyptian history and how to avoid hagglers 😅. All in all very fun experience, enjoyed it thoroughly, 10/10.
