- 953jaykumarj0 contributionsA great visit to the pyramidsWe enjoyed our trip from the Ritz Carlton to the Giza Pyramid complex with our guide, Hoda in December. The guide and van arrived on time at the hotel at 8am, and Hoda gave us a lot of information about Egypt, the pyramids, how they were built, helped us with tickets to enter the Great Pyramid. The van stayed on site the whole time, so I was able to rest my legs, while the younger members of my family walked around the pyramid complex. We finished out tour with some souvenier shopping with Hoda pointing out items that were actually made in Egypt, and we then all enjoyed a lunch of koshary at a local restaurant. After lunch our driver dropped us off at the hotel and we highly recommend Twitter Egypt Travel. We also used Twitter Egypt Travel's airport meet and greet service upon arrival to help us with immigration and customs, and also for a ride back to the airport at the end of our stay.Written 23 January 2025

We had a great day with Mario and Mario:)) Interesting and non-trivial information that is presented in a funny way definitely marked our stay in Egypt. We especially liked the way Mario presented the history as a story, which was very interesting to listen to and easy to follow. He also answered a lot of our questions. On our way to the museum, we were shown some latest Egyptian hits, which were instantly added to our playlist. Thank you for showing us the ancient Egyptian culture and not forgetting about the modern one!

We had an excellent tour today with Mario, to the Grand Egyptian Museum. He and the driver picked us up at the hotel as requested and safely navigated us to the museum. Mario expertly guided us through the open sections of the museum, helping us better appreciate what we were seeing. So glad we decided to book with him, rather than see it on our own. He was very knowledgeable, personable and a pleasure to spend the day with. We highly recommend his services, as well as our driver. The streets of Cairo can be a challenge to drive in but we felt perfectly safe in their capable hands. A wonderful experience today!

Mario made our visit to the GEM and Coptic Quarter a fabulous experience. His stories filled us with awe and wonder. And our driver (also named Mario) deserves an award for safely navigating the traffic. Highly recommend.

Mario was a fantastic guide! He was very knowledgeable and delivered information in a very fun and engaging way. Very capable addressing a variety of questions about both ancient and modern Egypt, and even helped us navigate being late to our museum time.

Issac met us at the airport and it was immediately smooth sailing. We went through all the various steps so easily. We immediately felt like he was family and someone we had know for a very long time. After just a few minutes I knew that I’d know him for the rest of my life. I would highly recommend this company and Issac. I would contact Issac to arrange all future trips and recommend him to my family and friends. He’s not just good at his job—he’s a good person Thank you for making our trip wonderful

Sarah was an excellent guide. She customized the tour to our needs and was very knowledgeable about the content and layout of the Cairo Museum. Hossam was an excellent driver and we felt very safe as he took us through the Cairo traffic. He timed his pick ups conveniently and appeared as if by magic to collect us as we left the museum and Khan El Khalili. Thank you!

The museum was incredible! Aya knew everything about it. Wouldn’t recommend going without a guide because there is too much to see. So many things I would have just glossed over but her telling me what everything was made the experience so interesting
