The pyramids are certainly one of the most important sights in the world. What made it even better as an experience was the tour with Ibrahim who not only knew in depth The history of Egypt and neighboring countries, but he also has a unique way of making the tour look like a movie trailer, giving you a feeling that You are part of that era. In two words, exciting experience

It was such an inspiring and incredibly enjoyable trip! The museum was beautiful in every way, and our guide MAHMOUD was honestly one of the best guides we’ve ever had — he answered all our questions and shared information in such an engaging way. It was an excellent experience that I’d highly recommend to everyone — and one I’d definitely love to repeat! 🌟

It was a pity not to be able to enter on the 8th because it exceeded capacity. This upset all our plans and left us unable to adapt to the rest of the group so we could not visit other museums. The attention received by the company Luna Travel was especially good and in the end we were very satisfied.

Arranged tickets and transfers (hotel to GEM and return) via Headout. The process was seemless and simple. Spent a few hours wandering the GEM at our own pace. Messaged the driver 30 minutes before return pick up. Enjoyed a coffee whilst we waited.
