Tour the sole survivor of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Pyramids of Giza still live up to more than 4, 000 years of hype. Let me answer the question ‘How were they built, and why? Let me tell you in details about their extraordinary shape, geometry and age rendering them somehow alien constructions. The oldest and biggest pyramid is that of Khufu (tallest), and you can go inside this one if you don’t suffer from claustrophobia.
Explore the 2 other Pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure. Proceed to gaze up at the colossal Sphinx, the enigmatic statue of a human-headed lion that guards the pyramids and, if you wish, visit the Solar Boat Museum. Admire the beautiful wooden boat, once used to transport Khufu’s body to the site, and learn how its remnants were discovered and reassembled. Then, head inside Cairo’s Egyptian Museum, home to some 120, 000 incredible ancient artifacts and treasures of Tutankhamun. Finish with a visit to Khan el-Khalili bazaar, Cairo’s main souk.

Our experienced local tour guides will take you on a journey through ancient wonders, and reveal the hidden gems of Egypt.
1. Experience authentic Egypt: during my tours, you won’t just visit the main tourist attractions, but also will take time to wander through local markets, talk with everyday Egyptians, see workshops making handmade goods, and try delicious street-food. Since we r local Egyptians speak native fluent Arabic, and have spent 30 years traveling throughout the country, I can truly take you behind the scenes.
2. Hassle-free touring: travel to Egypt can be stressful, considering the different customs on tipping, prevalence of tourist scams, and cultural differences. Let me help by:
Paying all tips, from hotel porters and bathroom attendants to our tour guides and drivers. You never need to worry about how much and to whom you tip
Keeping a watchful eye on the group, making sure we have the best experience at all the tourist sites, and avoid any potential wastes of time or money
Letting you know everything you need to know before coming to Egypt, so you are prepared for your time in the land of the Pharaohs

4. A true, private tour experience:
5. A cruise, unlike any other: on this Egypt adventure, you get to step back in time and board a Dahabeya to spend five unforgettable days sailing up the Nile River.
6. Gay and lesbian friendly tours: I get asked all of the time, “Is Egypt safe for gay travelers?”, and the answer is nuanced, but overall, YES! It is totally safe for gay and lesbian travelers, and my tours specifically are designed to help LGBTQ+ people, both singles and couples, to experience Egypt in a safe and comfortable environment. These tours are not just for LGBTQ+ people though—anyone is welcome!

Day 1:
Start with a pickup from your Cairo or Giza hotel by private, air-conditioned vehicle. Set off to explore the city’s highlights. If there’s something you want to see more of, let me know: your tour is private, so the itinerary can be tailored to your interests. Visit the Giza Plateau to admire the three Giza pyramids. Marvel at these massive ancient burial tombs, built around 2, 500 BC. Get free time to enter one of the pyramids and explore its empty inner chambers independently — guides are not permitted to enter with you.
Gaze up at the colossal Sphinx, the enigmatic statue of a human-headed lion that guards the pyramids, and if you wish get a camel ride around the Pyramids I can help you to arrange it and enjoy some memorable photos. Then head inside Cairo’s Egyptian Museum and admire Tutankhamun’s golden coffins and death mask in Cairo’s Egyptian Museum. Finish with a visit to Khan el-Khalili bazaar. Take a break for a local lunch as you travel between the sites.
