Absolutely great excursion to some hidden treasures.
Guides and transport were extremely knowledgeable and varied the delivery of information based on our interests at different areas.
We made it inside the bent pyramid which was amazing and were able to do things at each site at our own pace feeling that we could take the most from it.

Having a very knowledgeable guide and good transportation logistics made the trip really enjoyable and stress-free. Our tour guide, Tarek Tito, weaved a great story around each of the sites we saw and connected it with other sites to give us a complete view of Egyptian history. He was also flexible with the schedules for the day and was able to pack a lot without rushing us - he also found some amazing, unique places for lunch.
Memphis arranged all the logistics for travel and stay which made our trip hassle-free and enjoyable.

We went at the beginning of December. Very safe, lots of security around. Do it :)
-----------------------------------------
This is the PERFECT way to begin your holiday of exporing the history of Egypt. We had Esraa as our guide. She was amazing and so nice. Our driver, Mohammad drove very safely and the car was new, clean and air conditioned. Bottle water was provided and we even picked up some fresh dates to try along the way.
The reason why we went on this tour is that most of the 10-14 day Egyptian tours DON'T include this part of the history in their itinery. This tour sets the scene at the very start of your adventure.
We started the tour at 8am, the day after we arrived in Cairo. Context - this was following a 25 hour flight from New Zealand. We honestly didn't feel any jet lag as the excitment of what lay ahead fueled us for the day.
Choose this tour. You need all of the 8-9 hours to explore the sites. Highly recommend going into the Bent and Red Pyramids. They are different and an experience in themselves. And pick the addon at Sakkara. We explored the Serapeum. AMAZING!!! Google it.
We finished the day at a restaurant. The food was delicious and authentic. Have some US cash on you for this and tipping the guide and driver (they earn it!)

Excellent tour. Driver was good, and tour guide (Sam) was friendly., knowledgeable and spoke good English. Compared to Giza pyramids, Dahshur and Saqqara are much quieter and have far lower levels of harassment.

A brilliant day out.
Most importantly the guide listened to what o wanted to see and made sure it happened.
Because the tombs at Saqqara were my main aim that is where we spent most of our alloted time. If it was open i went in it and if something was about to close i still managed to get in.
We still had good time at Memphis and Dashur.
Know if you want to go in the Dashur pyramids because they are quite hard work and so need a time allowance.
As a solo female traveller i was well looked after by everyone and felt safe and comfortable at all points.
This is a brilliant day trip to because there are more to.pyramids than just Giza

Eslam took great care of our family and provided superior knowledge of the Serapeum and the evolution of the techniques in pyramid building. We felt really welcomed and taken care of and even enjoyed a falafel meal with him. We highly recommend him and his tour.

I wanted to see the Serapeum more than anything in Egypt. Mostafa as our guide made this a truly memorable tour. My wife has a neck injury and the driver was so considerate gently going over or around any speed humps. Mostafa listened to us and went straight to the Serapeum first so we could spend as long as we wanted there. He was very knowledgeable and shared the accepted knowledge and his own opinions which was interesting. The pyramid of Teti was awesome and we had a great time walking around Memphis and the stunning statue of Ramesses the Great. Mostafa had a rapport with officials everywhere we stopped. He was willing to take our photos and very patient whilst we did. We didnt want to do all the stops and it was no trouble to cut the some locations, always patient and empathetic to us. Our driver was jusr as nice and inisted on stopping and buying us a bag of Egyptian bananas and mandarins to take back with us. When I did the research I chose this tour as it was the only one that specifically had the Serapeum listed in its own right as a stop. Not as expensive as some other tours we felt it was very very good values for the price and would highly recommend it. The only down side was at the Serapeum my wife left myself and our guide inside and went out early guided by some old guy in a kaftan who had been following us around and when he got her out of sight took cornered her in a dark area and demanded money from her and she was so terrified she paid him. I think Go Travel Egypt should stop this happening.

Very interesting visit to the three pyramids in Dashur, to Saqqara and Menphis. The guide was excellent. It was exciting to go into the pyramid.
