It was a very successful and exciting day. Margitta was an educated companion who spoke very good German. She was able to tell us a lot about Egyptian culture and gave helpful tips for everyday life in Cairo. The driver Achmed was always on time, which is a logistical feat in Cairo given the traffic! Attention: also read the small print, we had booked 2 day tour tickets, but there was only 1 entry to the pyramid. The time (specified from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. was then only estimated at 4 hours) was easily enough to see everything and take enough photos. There are still small amounts for tips, but this is common here. Full 5 stars from us as a recommendation!

I would give the overall performance a "good". It was a pity that, despite prepayment, you were repeatedly asked to pay for additional services and sometimes not too tightly. Example: A 10-minute camel ride over a distance of no more than 200 m cost €50.00. We were then also driven to a papyrus sales point. Finally, the warning notice not to forget the tip was also clear!

The tour guide and driver were on time. The expert knowledge of the tour guide was impressive, who had an answer to every question, was able to explain a lot, kept "unwelcome" traders away from us and made the tour a real experience thanks to his very good German. With enough accompanying time at the pyramids and the Sphinx and enough private time to take it all in, as well as an interesting camel ride to the "photogenic side" of the pyramids, the trip was just perfect. The price-performance ratio is absolutely appropriate.
